Part of Speech Tagger for Software Engineering

Based on the paper published in ICPC 2013:

Part-of-Speech Tagging of Program Identifiers for Improved Text-Based Software Engineering Tool Gupta, Samir; Malik, Sana; Pollock, Lori; Vijay-Shanker, K.. 21st Annual International Conference on Program Comprehension, IEEE, May 2013.

================================================== For any questions please contact me

Author: Samir Gupta Graduate Student, University of Delware, USA contact: sgupta@udel.edu

================================================== Dependencies:

1. Perl required Tested on v5.14.2

2.WordNet should be installed. Please provide the path to the WordNet binary in the script:

./Scripts/getWordNetType.sh

Change line#2

/usa/sgupta/software/WordNet/bin/wn $1 | grep "Information available for (noun|verb|adj|adv) $1" | cut -d " " -f4

TO

pathToWordNetBinary $1 | grep "Information available for (noun|verb|adj|adv) $1" | cut -d " " -f4

================================================== Usage:

Two main binaries:

./Scripts/mainParser.pl and ./Scripts/mainParserChunk.pl

1. Getting Part of Speech information

cd Scripts ./mainParser.pl

Output is generated in ./Output/.pos

2. Getting Chunk Information

cd Scripts ./mainParser.pl

Output is generated in ./Output/.chunk

Parameter Information:

inputFile: The input file to tagged (description below)

: Specify the input is methods, attributes or class name

Can take 3 values: M (for method name) C (for class name) A (for attribute name)

Sample Usage:

cd Scripts; ./mainParser.pl ../Input/method100.input "M"

Output File Generated In: ./Output/method100.input.pos

=========================================================================

Format of input/output Files:

Sample Input Files can be found in ./Input

Example: (from ./Input/method100.input)

void resolveJumpJetAttack(QPhysicalResult;I) | resolve jump jet attack

So a line in Input file corresponds to the program identifier (here a method name) of format:

Please refer the ./Output directory for output format.
