Calibrating Function Points Using Neuro-Fuzzy Technique

Software Engineering 2015-08-04 v1

Abstract

The concepts of calibrating Function Points are discussed, whose aims are to fit specific software application, to reflect software industry trend, and to improve cost estimation. Neuro-Fuzzy is a technique which incorporates the learning ability from neural network and the ability to capture human knowledge from fuzzy logic. The empirical validation using ISBSG data repository Release 8 shows a 22% improvement in software effort estimation after calibration using Neuro-Fuzzy technique.
