Software fault localization model based on linear classification algorithm. Computer Engineering . and Applications, 2017, 53 （21 ）：42-48. j 机 a 算 e Abstract: Spectrum- Based Fault Localization （SBFL）techniques aid developers to reduce the debugging effort. As a c . light-weight promising approach, SBFL only collects the testing result of passed or failed, and the corresponding coverage 计 w information. Based on these data, SBFL can then calculate a runtime spectra for each program statement. SBFL approaches apply various functions to map four profile features to a suspiciousness score. However, existing functions don ’t give good w accuracy due to the influence of the fixed parameters. Therefore, a machine learning method is proposed that can automati- w cally construct a suspiciousness function of the specific program set. First, the old versions of a program having fault code are collected. Next, it is mapped from the feature difference in a pair of faulty statement and non-faulty statement to an instance in training dataset. Finally the linear classification algorithm of Weka is applied to learn a mapping function. The function learned from old versions is defined as the fault localization model of the program. To assess
