Extracting Conceptual Interoperability Constraints from API Documentation Using Machine Learning

摘要

Successfully using a software web-service/platform API requires satisfying its conceptual interoperability constraints that are stated within its shared documentation. However, manual and unguided analysis of text in API documents is a tedious and time consuming task. In this work, we present our empirical-based methodology of using machine learning techniques for automatically identifying conceptual interoperability constraints from natural language text. We also show some initial promising results of our research.
