Calibrating Function Points Using Neuro-Fuzzy Technique
Xia, Wei, Danny Ho, Luiz Fernando Capretz · arXiv (Cornell University) · 2015
The concepts of calibrating Function Points are discussed, whose aims are to fit specific software application, to reflect software industry trend, and to improve cost estimation. Neuro-Fuzzy is a technique which incorporates the learning ability from neural network and the ability to capture human knowledge from fuzzy logic. The empirical validation using ISBSG data repository Release 8 shows a 22% improvement in software effort estimation after calibration using Neuro-Fuzzy technique.
