New features for duplicate bug detection
Nathan Klein, Christopher S. Corley, Nicholas A. Kraft · 2014
Issue tracking software of large software projects receive a large volume of issue reports each day. Each of these issues is typically triaged by hand, a time consuming and error prone task. Additionally, issue reporters lack the necessary understanding to know whether their issue has previously been reported. This leads to issue trackers containing a lot of duplicate reports, adding complexity to the triaging task.
