The misuse of the NASA metrics data program data sets for automated software defect prediction
(Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET), 2011)Background: The NASA Metrics Data Program data sets have been heavily used in software defect prediction experiments. Aim: To demonstrate and explain why these data sets require significant pre-processing in order to be ... -
Mitigating Modal Noise in Multimode Circular Fibres by Optical Agitation using a Galvanometer
(2024-01-02)Modal noise appears due to the non-uniform and unstable distribution of light intensity among the finite number of modes in multimode fibres. It is an important limiting factor in measuring radial velocity precisely by ... -
