The aim of Just-In-Time (JIT) defect prediction is to predict software changes that are prone to defects in a project in a timely manner, thereby improving the efficiency of software development and ensuring software quality. Identifying changes that introduce bugs is a critical task in just-in-time defect prediction, and researchers have introduced the SZZ approach and its variants to label these changes. However, it has been shown that different SZZ algorithms introduce noise to the dataset to a certain extent, which may reduce the predictive performance of the model. To address this limitation, we propose the Confident Learning Imbalance (CLI) model. The model identifies and excludes samples whose labels may be corrupted by estimating the joint distribution of noisy labels and true labels, and mitigates the impact of noisy data on the performance of the prediction model. The CLI consists of two components: identifying noisy data (Confident Learning Component) and generating a predicted probability matrix for imbalanced data (Imbalanced Data Probabilistic Prediction Component). The IDPP component generates precise predicted probabilities for each instance in the training set, while the CL component uses the generated predicted probability matrix and noise labels to clean up the noise and build a classification model. We evaluate the performance of our model through extensive experiments on a total of 126,526 changes from ten Apache open source projects, and the results show that our model outperforms the baseline methods.

Road scene understanding is a difficult task in autonomous driving. In this letter, we propose a novel deep encoder-decoder architecture for road scene understanding in an end-to-end manner. This core trainable understanding engine includes an encoder network, a decoder network with two streams, and a pixel-level fusion network with classification layer. The encoder network is composed of the front-end model of the classical convolution neural network, VGGNet. The decoder network with two streams includes multi-scale skip connection modules to reduce the down-scaling effect. Finally, a fusion network fuses the two-level information from the two streams of the decoder network for precise pixel-level classification. Additionally, the convolution layer is added to each skip connection module to increase the depth of the architecture. Our architecture achieves outstanding performance on the publicly available CamVid dataset and significantly outperforms previous architectures. This deep architecture is ideal for road scene understanding.
