Correction of "A Comparative Study to Benchmark Cross-project Defect Prediction Approaches"

Abstract

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.
