Case-based reasoning vs parametric models for software quality optimization
Adam Brady, Tim Menzies · 2010
Background: There are many data mining methods but few comparisons between them. For example, there are at least two ways to build quality optimizers, programs that find project options that change quality measures like defects, development effort (total staff hours), and time (elapsed calendar months). In the first way, we construct a parametric model to represent prior software projects. In the second way, we just apply case-based reasoning to reason directly from historical cases.
