Abstract

Software cost estimation SCE is directly related to quality of software. The paper presents a hybrid approach that is an amalgamation of algorithmic (parametric models) and non-algorithmic (expert estimation) models. Algorithmic model uses COCOMO II while non algorithmic utilizes Neuro-Fuzzy technique that can be further used to estimate accuracy in irregular functions. For generalization of the model, Neuro-fuzzy membership functions have been used and simulated using mathematical tool MATLAB. The main objective of this research is to investigate the role of fuzzy logic technique in improving the effort estimation accuracy using COCOMO II by characterizing inputs parameters using Gaussian, trapezoidal and triangular membership functions and comparing their results. NASA (93) dataset is used in the evaluation of the proposed Fuzzy Logic COCOMO II. After analyzing the results it had been found that effort estimation using Gaussian member function yields better results for maximum criterions when compared with the other methods
