Abstract

This paper presents a natural language processing-based defect localization methodology to identify and locate software defects in source code reviews. The methodology utilizes text mining and natural language processing techniques to extract defect-related information from software source code commit messages and bug reports. Through a series of experiments on a real-world dataset, we evaluate the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed methodology in identifying and locating defects in software systems.
