There are various prediction models for identifying defective prone modules from these characteristics. In this study we are comparing neural networks and Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) for software defect prediction. We applied gradient descendent learning for Neural Networks and Hybrid Leaning for ANFIS. The performance of the models are evaluated by using the metric Area under ROC curve (AuC) values. In these experiments, we considered Software Defect Prediction Datasets download from NASA repositories. The results of ANFIS are found satisfactory compared to Neural Networks. ER -
