Computational Intelligence Applications for Software Engineering Problems

這本新書探討了執行不同軟體工程任務所需的計算智能技術。軟體在部署之前需要經歷多個階段，例如需求收集、軟體設計、軟體專案規劃、軟體編碼以及軟體測試和維護。每個階段都包含一系列需要執行的任務或活動。由於軟體的規模龐大且複雜，這些任務可能變得昂貴且容易出錯。本書旨在通過介紹軟體工程領域中的新研究和實際應用，幫助應對這些挑戰。

《軟體工程問題的計算智能應用》討論了使用機器學習、深度學習、基於模糊邏輯的計算、統計建模、入侵性雜草元啟發式算法、人工智能、DevOps模型、時間序列預測模型等技術解決工程挑戰的方法，並提供了案例研究。
