Attention based GRU-LSTM for software defect prediction.

ABSTRACT: Software defect prediction (SDP) can be used to produce reliable, high-quality software. The current SDP is practiced on program granular components (such as file level, class level, or function level), which cannot accurately predict failures. To solve this problem, we propose a new framework called DP-AGL, which uses attention-based GRU-LSTM for statement-level defect prediction. By using clang to build an abstract syntax tree (AST), we define a set of 32 statement-level metrics. We label each statement, then make a three-dimensional vector and apply it as an automatic learning model, and then use a gated recurrent unit (GRU) with a long short-term memory (LSTM). In addition, the Attention mechanism is used to generate important features and improve accuracy. To verify our experiments, w
