Summary :

Cross-project defect prediction (CPDP) is a research hot recently, which utilizes the data form existing source project to construct prediction model and predicts the defect-prone of software instances from target project. However, it is challenging in bridging the distribution difference between different projects. To minimize the data distribution differences between different projects and predict unlabeled target instances, we present a novel approach called selective pseudo-labeling based subspace learning (SPSL). SPSL learns a common subspace by using both labeled source instances and pseudo-labeled target instances. The accuracy of pseudo-labeling is promoted by iterative selective pseudo-labeling strategy. The pseudo-labeled instances from target project are iteratively updated by selecting the instances with high confidence from two pseudo-labeling technologies. Experiments are conducted on AEEEM dataset and the results show that SPSL is effective for CPDP.
