Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract In this paper, we present a user‐assisted clustering technique for software architecture recovery based on a proximity measure that we call component association. The component association measure is computed on the shared properties among groups of highly related system entities. In this approach, the software system is modeled as an attributed relational graph with the software constructs (entities) represented as nodes and data/control dependencies represented as edges. The application of data mining techniques on the system graph allows us to generate a component graph where the edges are labeled by the association strength values among the components. An interactive partitioning technique is used to partition a system into cohesive components. Graph visualization tools and cluster quality evaluation metrics are applied by the user to assess and fine tune the partition result. Copyright © 2003 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
