This study introduces a Deep Multi-Metrics Learning Model (DMLM) for accurate mobile app defect prediction. DMLM effectively combines code and process metrics, outperforming existing methods in both effort-aware and non-effort-aware scenarios.

Area of Science:

  • Software Engineering
  • Machine Learning
  • Mobile Application Development

Background:

  • Accurate defect prediction is crucial for efficient mobile app development and resource allocation.
  • Existing defect prediction models are limited by their reliance on isolated data sources, failing to capture the interplay of code and process metrics.
  • There is a need for advanced models that integrate diverse metrics for improved prediction accuracy.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose a novel Deep Multi-Metrics Learning Model (DMLM) for enhanced mobile app defect prediction.
  • To leverage both code metrics from the current version and process metrics from previous releases within a unified framework.
  • To evaluate the performance of DMLM against state-of-the-art approaches.

  • Developed a Deep Multi-Metrics Learning Model (DMLM) integrating code and process metrics.
  • Utilized a deep convolutional neural network (CNN) to identify complex patterns within the combined metrics.
  • Conducted experiments on nine real-world Android applications from Git repositories.
  • Main Results:

    • DMLM significantly outperformed state-of-the-art approaches in non-effort-aware settings, showing superior Area Under the Curve (AUC), F1 scores, and Matthews correlation coefficient (MCC).
    • The DMLM model also demonstrated superior performance compared to baseline methods in effort-aware scenarios (PofB20).
    • The findings confirm the model's effectiveness in diverse prediction contexts.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed DMLM effectively enhances mobile app defect prediction by integrating code and process metrics.
    • DMLM offers a robust solution for improving resource allocation and software quality in mobile app development.
    • The study underscores the importance of multi-metric learning for accurate and reliable defect prediction.
