Summary: | Nowadays open source software becomes highly popular and is of great importance for most software engi- neering activities. To facilitate software organization and re- trieval, tagging is extensively used in open source communi- ties. However, finding the desired software through tags in these communities such as Freecode and ohloh is still chal- lenging because of tag insufficiency. In this paper, we propose TRG (tag recommendation based on semantic graph), a novel approach to discovering and enriching tags of open source software. Firstly, we propose a semantic graph to model the semantic correlations between tags and the words in software descriptions. Then based on the graph, we design an effec- tive algorithm to recommend tags for software. With com- prehensive experiments on large-scale open source software datasets by comparing with several typical related works, we demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of our method in recommending proper tags. |
