experimental evaluation of algorithmic effort estimation models using projects clustering
Authors
abstract
one of the most important aspects of software project management is the estimation of cost and time required for running information system. therefore, software managers try to carry estimation based on behavior, properties, and project restrictions. software cost estimation refers to the process of development requirement prediction of software system. various kinds of effort estimation patterns have been presented in recent years, which are focused on intelligent techniques. this study made use of clustering approach for estimating required effort in software projects. the effort estimation is carried out through swr (stepwise regression) and mlr (multiple linear regressions) regression models as well as cart (classification and regression tree) method. the performance of these methods is experimentally evaluated using real software projects. moreover, clustering of projects is applied to the estimation process. as indicated by the results of this study, the combination of clustering method and algorithmic estimation techniques can improve the accuracy of estimates.

Software development effort is one of the most important metrics that must be correctly estimated in software projects. Analogy-based estimation (ABE) and artificial neural networks (ANN) are the most popular methods used widely in this field. These methods suffer from inconsistent and irrelevant projects that exist in the software project datasets. In this paper, a new hybrid method is propose...

Conceptual cost estimates, are prepared at the very early stages of a project, and generally before the construction drawings and specifications are available. At this stage, cost estimates are needed by the owner, contractor, designer, or funding agencies for determination of the feasibility of a project, financial evaluation of a number of alternative projects, or establishment of an initial ...
