Contributors: n , H. Kang *, H. Tu *, X. Yang n, D. Lo * & T. Menzies n
author keywords: Codes; Computer bugs; Static analysis; Training; Source coding; Measurement; Industries; Software analytics; static analysis; false alarms; locality; hyperparameter optimization

author keywords: Deep learning; Tuning; Predictive models; Standards; Prediction algorithms; Training; Tools; Defect prediction; oversampling; class imbalance; neural networks
TL;DR:
The results present a cogent case for the use of oversampling prior to applying deep learning on software defect prediction datasets, which can do significantly better than the prior DL state of the art in 14/20 defect data sets.

Simpler Hyperparameter Optimization for Software Analytics: Why, How, When
IEEE Transactions on Software Engineering, 48(8), 1–1.
Contributors: A. Agrawal*, X. Yang n, R. Agrawal n, n , X. Shen n & T. Menzies n
author keywords: Software analytics; hyperparameter optimization; defect prediction; bad smell detection; issue close time; bug reports
TL;DR:
The simple DODGE works best for data sets with low “intrinsic dimensionality” and very poorly for higher-dimensional data; nearly all the SE data seen here was intrinsically low-dimensional, indicating that DODGE is applicable for many SE analytics tasks.
