Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

We propose an on-demand clustering framework for analyzing the functional requirements in a product line. Our approach is novel in that the objects to be clustered capture the domain's action themes at a primitive level, and the essential attributes are uncovered via semantic analysis. We provide automatic support to complement domain analysis by quickly identifying important entities and functionalities. A second contribution is our recognition of stakeholders' different goals in cluster analysis, e.g., feature identification for users versus system decomposition for designers. We thus advance the literature by examining requirements clusters that overlap and those causing a minimal information loss, and by facilitating the discovery of product line variabilities. A proof-of-concept example is presented to show the applicability and usefulness of our approach.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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.
