Evaluating Software Project Similarity by using Linguistic Quantifiers Guided Aggregations
نویسندگان
چکیده
Software projects are often described by linguistic variables such as the experience of programmers and the complexity of modules. Because the existing software projects similarity measures take into account only numerical data, we have proposed a set of measures based on fuzzy logic to evaluate the similarity between two software projects when they are described by linguistic values. In this work, we improve the proposed measures by using linguistic quantifiers such as ‘most’, ‘many’ and ‘few’ in the computing process for the various measures.

Estimating Software Project Effort by Analogy Based on Linguistic Values
Estimation models in software engineering are used to predict some important attributes of future entities such as software development effort, software reliability and programmers productivity. Among these models, those estimating software effort have motivated considerable research in recent years. The prediction procedure used by these software-effort models can be based on a mathematical fu...
متن کاملExploring multicriteria decision strategies in GIS with linguistic quantifiers: A case study of residential quality evaluation
Commonly used GIS combination operators such as Boolean conjunction/disjunction and weighted linear combination can be generalized to the ordered weighted averaging (OWA) family of operators. This multicriteria evaluation method allows decision-makers to define a decision strategy on a continuum between pessimistic and optimistic strategies. Recently, OWA has been introduced to GIS-based decisi...

Borda count is a well-known social choice method, and is frequently used for group decision making problems. However it does not consider the optimism/pessimism view of the director, which has a great effect on the group decisions. Therefore in the present study, we extend the Borda method by using the Ordered Weighted Averaging (OWA) operator to consider the risk attitudinal characteristics....
متن کاملA Framework for Evaluating Fusion Operators Based on the Theory of Generalized Quantifiers
Fuzzy linguistic quantifiers – operators intended to model vague quantifying expressions in natural language like “almost all” or “few” – have gained importance as operators for information combination and the fusion of gradual evaluations. They are particularly appealing because of their ease-of-use: people are familiar with these operators, which can be applied for technical fusion purposes i...
متن کاملAsymmetries in the Acquisition of Numbers and Quantifiers
Number terms and quantifiers share a range of linguistic (syntactic, semantic, and pragmatic) properties. On the basis of these similarities, one might expect these 2 classes of linguistic expression to pose similar problems to children acquiring language. We report here the results of an experiment that explicitly compared the acquisition of numerical expressions (two, four) and quantification...
