Bayesian inference for a software reliability model using metrics information
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we are concerned with predicting the number of faults N and the time to next failure of a piece of software. Information in the form of software metrics data is used to estimate the prior distribution of N via a Poisson regression model. Given failure time data, and a well known model for software failures, we show how to sample the posterior distribution using Gibbs sampling, as implemented in the package "WinBugs". The approach is illustrated with a practical example.

The fault prediction model grants assistance during the software development by providing recourse to the present faults with the Bayesian Interference. All faults prediction techniques get a help in this study with the designing of Logistic regression model and Bayesian inference altogether. It is also told as fact that Bayesian inference graph can be represented for probabilistic approach for...
متن کاملA Bayesian Networks Approach to Reliability Analysis of a Launch Vehicle Liquid Propellant Engine
This paper presents an extension of Bayesian networks (BN) applied to reliability analysis of an open gas generator cycle Liquid propellant engine (OGLE) of launch vehicles. There are several methods for system reliability analysis such as RBD, FTA, FMEA, Markov Chains, and etc. But for complex systems such as LV, they are not all efficiently applicable due to failure dependencies between compo...
متن کاملA Surface Water Evaporation Estimation Model Using Bayesian Belief Networks with an Application to the Persian Gulf
Evaporation phenomena is a effective climate component on water resources management and has special importance in agriculture. In this paper, Bayesian belief networks (BBNs) as a non-linear modeling technique provide an evaporation estimation method under uncertainty. As a case study, we estimated the surface water evaporation of the Persian Gulf and worked with a dataset of observations ...

متن کاملA Bayesian Approach Using Nonhomogeneous Poisson Process for Software Reliability Models
Bayesian approach using nonhomogeneous Poisson process is considered for modeling software reliability problems. A generalized gamma and lognormal order statistics models are considered to model epochs of the failures of software. Metropolis algorithms along with Gibbs steps are proposed to perform the Bayesian inference of such models. Some Bayesian model diagnostics are developed and incorpor...
