We are starting to collect our first data set from the Android bug repository. We would like to incorporate comments on defect reports in our model as well as the conventional descriptive and categorical data about the bug and product. A significant amount effort is required to extract this specific information in a form that will be convenient to use later. We are currently working out these challenges.
We are continuously doing background research to get new ideas and see what others have done. I have been updating a short summary table and also created detailed summaries of each paper. An interesting possible similarity to include from this weeks research categorizes the bug reports based on the probably context of the bug. This is done using a pre-made lists of words developed by those with in-depth knowledge of software development and the specific repository used.
Everyone is really excited about the possibility of submitting our future research to the MSR 2014 conference on Mining Software Repositories. There are several possible opportunities for our team. They have a both a research paper section and a data collection section. They also hold a data mining competition, that be very cool to participate in. Participants from all over the world are given the same data set to analyze and report on. The top reports actually get to present their data at the conference. This would be a great experience for everyone.
