Falcon (Fault localization)
This repo contains the overview and all experimental data for 34 spectrum-based fault localization techniques from the paper Enhancing Fault Localization in Industrial Software Systems via Contrastive Learning (ICSE'25).
Falcon consists of three main stages: Data Pre-processing, Representation Learning, and Learning to Rank. For a more detailed description, please refer to Section III of our paper.
Due to spatial constraints, only the three SBFL formulae with top performance--RussellRao, Hamann, and SφrensenDice--are highlighted in Table Ⅲ nad Table Ⅳ, while comprehensive results are accessible on this repo.
We present the performance of all 34 spectrum-based fault localization methods in Top-1, Top-3, Top-5, MFR, MRR at both file and method levels in 'data.xlsx'.
The detailed information on these SBFL formulae are shown below.
This table is sourced from Table 7 in the paper "Transforming Programs and Tests in Tandem for Fault Localization." All the proposed formulae in this image rely on the following information:
- the set of all failed/passed tests, i.e.,
$T_f/T_p$ - the set of failed/passed tests executing element
$e$ , i.e.,$T_f(e)/T_p(e)$ - the set of failed/passed tests that do not execute element
$e$ , i.e.,$T_f(\bar{e})/T_p(\bar{e})$
For example, the suspicioussness score of element e based on Jaccard formula will be calculated as
