Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract Software inspections are an intensely people‐centric activity. Even though this is routinely recognized in industry, much of the research focuses on inspection mechanics. During three years of inspection experiments, even though the main purpose of the experiments was to investigate the effectiveness of a particular technique, the inspectors involved provided broad comments on many other aspects of inspections. Their comments were collected and organized into themes. These themes are presented here as a set of maxims that cover all the topics that the inspectors felt were important as they endeavoured to do good inspections.

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.
