Information Retrieval (IR) plays a pivotal role in diverse Software Engineering (SE) tasks, e.g., bug localization and triaging, code retrieval, requirements analysis, etc. The choice of similarity measure is the core component of an IR…
Software behavioral models have proven useful for emulating and testing software systems. Many techniques have been proposed to infer behavioral models of software systems from their interaction traces. The quality of the inferred model is…
Requirements traceability in safety-critical software development remains largely dependent on external documentation maintained separately from the systems it describes. This separation introduces structural fragility: traces degrade…
Enterprise software systems make complex interactions with other services in their environment. Developing and testing for production-like conditions is therefore a challenging task. Prior approaches include emulations of the dependency…
With the rapid development of online social media, online shopping sites and cyber-physical systems, heterogeneous information networks have become increasingly popular and content-rich over time. In many cases, such networks contain…
Bayesian networks are popular probabilistic models that capture the conditional dependencies among a set of variables. Inference in Bayesian networks is a fundamental task for answering probabilistic queries over a subset of variables in…
Background: Traceability between software artifacts enhances the value of the information those artifacts contain, but only when the links themselves are reliable. Link quality is known to depend on explicit factors such as the traced…
Embedding-based retrieval aims to learn a shared semantic representation space for both queries and items, enabling efficient and effective item retrieval through approximate nearest neighbor (ANN) algorithms. In current industrial…
Robust data association is critical for analysis of long-term motion trajectories in complex scenes. In its absence, trajectory precision suffers due to periods of kinematic ambiguity degrading the quality of follow-on analysis. Common…
Automated content analysis increasingly supports communication research, yet scaling manual coding into computational pipelines raises concerns about measurement reliability and validity. We introduce a Hierarchical Error Correction (HEC)…
The hyperlink prediction task, that of proposing new links between webpages, can be used to improve search engines, expand the visibility of web pages, and increase the connectivity and navigability of the web. Hyperlink prediction is…
Long traces and large event logs that originate from sensors and prediction models are becoming more common in our data-rich world. In such circumstances, conformance checking, a key task in process mining, can become computationally…
This extended paper presents 1) a novel hierarchy and recursion extension to the process tree model; and 2) the first, recursion aware process model discovery technique that leverages hierarchical information in event logs, typically…
The reproduction and replication of research results has become a major issue for a number of scientific disciplines. In computer science and related computational disciplines such as systems biology, the challenges closely revolve around…
Machine learning (ML) reproducibility is often framed as a problem of incomplete artifact recording. This framing leads to systems that prioritize capturing datasets, code, configurations, and execution environments. However, in…
Set similarity join is a fundamental and well-studied database operator. It is usually studied in the exact setting where the goal is to compute all pairs of sets that exceed a given similarity threshold (measured e.g. as Jaccard…
Ensuring the reproducibility of scientific work is crucial as it allows the consistent verification of scientific claims and facilitates the advancement of knowledge by providing a reliable foundation for future research. However,…
Enterprise environments contain a heterogeneous, rapidly growing collection of internal artifacts related to code, data, and many different tools. Critical information for assessing privacy risk and ensuring regulatory compliance is often…
We aim to create the highest possible quality of treatment-control matches for categorical data in the potential outcomes framework. Matching methods are heavily used in the social sciences due to their interpretability, but most matching…
Many sectors nowadays require accurate and coherent predictions across their organization to effectively operate. Otherwise, decision-makers would be planning using disparate views of the future, resulting in inconsistent decisions across…
