Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

In this paper, we describe a suite of two tools: Multi-Threaded Tracer (MuTT) and Exploring Traces (ET), which can be used to trace complex multi-threaded event-driven Java programs during feature location and program debugging and help the programmer to locate parts of code that are related to a specific feature. MuTT does not need instrumentation. ET can be used to browse the traces and focus on a small part of the graph presented by MuTT from the traces. We also conduct a case study on Eclipse with this tool suite and the result shows that the productivity of feature location gained by using them. The case study also demonstrates that ET can work well with MuTT.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

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.
