Software Defect Prediction(SDP) helps effectively allocate quality assurance resources which are limited by identifying modules that are likely to cause defects. Software defect data suffer from class imbalance problems in which there are more non-defective instances than defective instances. In most machine learning methods, the defect prediction performance is degraded when there is a disproportionate number of instances belonging to a particular class. Therefore, this research aimed to solve the class imbalance problem and improve defect prediction performance by using a Generative Adversarial Network(GAN) model. To this end, we compared different kinds of GAN models for their suitability for SDP and checked the applicability of GAN models that were not applied in the related work. In our study, Vanilla-GAN(GAN), Conditional GAN (cGAN), and Wasserstein GAN (WGAN) models which were initially proposed for image generation were adapted for software defect prediction. Then those modified models were compared with Tabular GAN(TGAN) and Modeling Tabular data using Conditional GAN(CTGAN). Our experimental results showed that the CTGAN model is suitable for SDP data. We also conducted a sensitivity analysis examining which hyper-parameter values of CTGAN increase the recall rate and lower the probability of false alarm (PF). Our experimental results indicated that the hyper-parameters should be adjusted according to the dataset. We expect that our proposed approach can help effectively allocate limited resources by improving the performance of SDP.
A Transfer Learning Method for Solving Imbalance Data of Abusive Sentence Classification

The supervised learning approach is suitable for classification of insulting sentences, but pre-decided training sentences are necessary. Since a Character-level Convolution Neural Network is robust for each character, so is appropriate for classifying abusive sentences, however, has a drawback that demanding a lot of training sentences. In this paper, we propose transfer learning method that reusing the trained filters in the real classification process after the filters get the characteristics of offensive words by generated abusive/normal pair of sentences. We got higher performances of the classifier by decreasing the effects of data shortage and class imbalance. We executed experiments and evaluations for three datasets and got higher F1-score of character-level CNN classifier when applying transfer learning in all datasets.
