Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Prediction of fault-prone software modules has been one of the most
classical and important area of software engineering so far. We
have proposed a novel approach for predicting fault-prone modules
using a spam filtering technique, named Fault-proneness filtering
(FPF). In our approach, fault-prone modules are detected in a way
that the source code modules are considered as text files and are
applied to the spam filter directly. Recently, an another approach
using code churn metrics has been proposed. This method is based on
a logistic regression model and using metrics related to code
churn(the amount of modified code between revisions).

In this paper, we conduct a comparative study of fault-proneness
filtering and code churn based logistic regression model using the
data of an open source software development. Furthermore, we propose
a method to integrate these two methods. The method is also
evaluated by the same data.
