Neural network-based retrieval from software reuse repositories
David A. Eichmann, Kankanahalli Srinivas · NASA Technical Reports Server (NASA) · 1992
A significant hurdle confronts the software reuser attempting to select candidate components from a software repository - discriminating between those components without resorting to inspection of the implementation(s). We outline an approach to this problem based upon neural networks which avoids requiring the repository administrators to define a conceptual closeness graph for the classification vocabulary.
