## Practical Usefulness ## Practical Usefulness
Discuss the practical usefulness of the obtained classifiers in a The evaluation shows that all classifiers but the Naive Bayes classifier outperform the biased classifier in overall performance
realistic bug prediction scenario (1 paragraph). (represented by the F1 score). Given the evaluation was not performed on a dedicated test set, all classifiers may be subjected to
training bias, which might yield better metrics than a similar evaluation performed on completely new data. However, given the
evaluation sample size (i.e. the number of training runs) this effect is minimal.
Given this premise, I can say with reasonable confidence the *DT*, *MLP*, *RP* and *SVP*
classifiers would be useful in predicting potential bugs in the Google JSComp project, i.e. the source of the used dataset. Given the
literature presented during lecture, it is not certain if the same trained classifier would yield acceptable results for source
code from another project. This is because differences in coding conventions, the bug tracking process, or simply the definition of
what constitutes a bug may vary from project to project. A solution to this problem might be to simply train the classifiers on a dataset
coming from the project where bug prediction is needed.
