Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research aims at developing a code clone detection tool based on the similarity of identifier names and evaluating its usefulness. This tool is able to detect code clones that not only includes the same identifier names but also identifiers including similar usage contexts. This tool is developed using a topic extraction technique for natural language processing in order to determine whether a pair of code fragments includes identifiers that share similar usage context.
