Correction of "A Comparative Study to Benchmark Cross-project Defect Prediction Approaches"
This is an incremental correction to a domain-specific study in software engineering.
The authors corrected a statistical analysis error in a previous study on cross-project defect prediction approaches, which altered some rankings but preserved all key findings, and they explained the problem, resolution, and updated results.
Unfortunately, the article "A Comparative Study to Benchmark Cross-project Defect Prediction Approaches" has a problem in the statistical analysis which was pointed out almost immediately after the pre-print of the article appeared online. While the problem does not negate the contribution of the the article and all key findings remain the same, it does alter some rankings of approaches used in the study. Within this correction, we will explain the problem, how we resolved it, and present the updated results.
