Mining Requirements Sample Clauses

Mining Requirements. Requirements engineering traditionally involves end users to capture their needs and to get their feedback with the goal of building the right product for them. This is traditionally achieved through on-site customers’ visits, interviews, focus groups, and workshops. Requirements are initially stated in natural language which can pose problems of ambiguity, vagueness, and misinterpretation. Therefore, formalized specifications have only a small role in the specification of requirements. A survey by Xxxx et al. [29] found that 79% of companies use unstructured natural language in their requirements documents; 16% use structured natural language (e.g., using templates); 5% use formal approaches. Therefore, the application of natural language processing (NLP) to requirements engineering has attracted a lot of attention from software engineering researchers and practitioners. NLP is a field that stands at the crossing between computer science, artificial intelligence and computational linguistics and is concerned with programming computers to process large amount natural language text [44]. NASA built a tool that leverages NLP for requirement engineering (Automated Requirements Measurement, or ARM) already in the late 1990s [7]. The recent state of the art regarding the identification of requirements focuses on text mining, natural-language processing, and sentiment analysis [39]. Therefore, we have text mining to retrieve documents from the internet and to turn them into data. Sentiment analysis takes the processed, machine readable text from the natural-language procedure and extracts the opinion of the user. Sentiment analysis tools such as SentiStrength [61] extracts how positive and how negative a certain formulation is and relates it to a value from -5 very negative to +5 very positive. The identification of user needs and features that satisfy such needs is an example of the current application of NLP to requirements intelligence. In fact, the features of a software system can be identified by mining the descriptions of software products and its related reviews [20], [22]. In the product descriptions, the developer or the company behind the product or service tries to explain the existing functionalities. On the other hand, in software reviews, users state what they like or dislike, explain features they think are missing in the current product, or report bugs. Understanding the set of features of one's own software, the set of features of the competito...
