Emotion Based Automated Priority Prediction for Bug Reports

Emotion Based Automated Priority Prediction for Bug Reports

Blog Article

Issue tracking systems allow users to report bugs.Bug reports often contain product name, product component, description, and severity.Based on such information, triagers often manually prioritize the bug reports for investigation.

However, manual prioritization is time consuming and cumbersome.DRONE is an automated state-of-the-art approach that recommends the priority level information of the bug reports.However, its performance for all levels of priorities is not uniform and may be improved.

To this end, in this paper, we propose an emotion-based automatic sally hansen red iance approach to predict the priority for a report.First, we exploit natural language processing techniques to preprocess the bug report.Second, we identify the emotion-words that are involved in the description of the bug report and assign it an emotion value.

Third, we create a feature vector for the bug report gtech brush bar and predict its priority with a machine learning classifier that is trained with history data collected from the Internet.We evaluate the proposed approach on Eclipse open-source projects and the results of the cross-project evaluation suggest that the proposed approach outperforms the state-of-the-art.On average, it improves the F1 score by more than 6%.
