Minshu Ma, Yongbo Lu · Zhongguo anquan kexue xuebao · 2004
To solve the problems in parameter estimation for software reliability growth models with traditional numerical approaches, the relevant strategies concerning the application of genetic algorithms is discussed, and a novel coding scheme as well as some new genetic operators is proposed. The experiments with several models and real data sets show that the algorithm has demonstrated good applicability in this field.
