摘要:Non-Functional Requirements (NFR) are embedded
in functional requirements in requirements specification document.
Identification of NFR from the requirement document is a
challenging task. Ignorance of NFR identification in early stages
of development increase cost and ultimately cause the failure of
the system. The aim of this approach is to help the analyst and
designers in architect and design of the system by identifying NFR
from the requirements document. Several supervised learningbased
solutions were reported in the literature. However, for accurate
identification of NFR, a significant number of pre-categorized
requirements are needed to train supervised text classifiers and
system analysts perform the categorization process manually.
This study proposed an automated semantic similarity based
approach which does not needs pre-categorized requirements
for identification of NFR from requirements documents. The
approach uses an application of Word2Vec model and popular
keywords for identification of NFR. Performance of approach is
measured in term of precision-recall and F-measure by applying
the approach to PROMISE-NFR dataset. The empirical evidence
shows that the automated semi-supervised approach reduces
manual human effort in the identification of NFR.
