Function Point Analysis is a software measurement technique which is gaining wider diffusion all over the world even if some experts pointed out various problems affecting it. The present paper describes a new
For RQ2, a test effort estimation model is built using a linear regression technique for predicting test effort as the outcome variable and COSMIC size as a predictor variable. The model is verified, validated and evaluated for its accuracy using different measures. The positive answers to RQ1 ...
are often referred to as IFPUG Function Point Analysis (FPA). Functional Size Measurement (FSM) is a technique for measuring software in terms of the functionality it delivers. The ISO/IEC standard for Functional Size Measurement
Function point analysis is described by the IFPUG (International Function Point Users Group) as "A sizing measure of clear business significance, the FPA technique quantifies the functions contained within software in terms that are meaningful to the software users. " (IFPUG, About Function Point ...
Continuous-time example: estimation of cerebral hemodynamics The quantitative assessment of cerebral hemodynamics is crucial to understand brain function in both normal and pathological states. For this purpose, an important technique is bolus-tracking magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), which relies upon th...
The technique of dense quantum measurement has been defined in38. As it has been proven, the method significantly can reduce the number of physical measurement rounds in a gate-model quantum computer environment. In39, a training optimization method has been defined for gate-model quantum neural ...

Finally, due to the significant error of the probability density function approximation methods, the FPF is estimated by point-wise prediction and interpolation technique after discretizing the distribution parameters. Two numerical examples and two engineering examples for an automotive front axle and a ...
This invention is about a novel estimation technique for generating a predistortion function to compensate for the AM-AM and AM-PM non-linear conversion distortions of non-linear power amplifiers or non-linear circuits. Based on the cumulative type of power amplifier output envelope, a non-parametr...
Another non-exclusive example of a variable splitting technique is described in the paper by {hacek over (S)}roubek and Milanfar (F. {hacek over (S)}roubek, P. Milanfar: Robust Multichannel Blind Deconvolution via Fast Alternating Minimization, IEEE Trans Im. Proc., 2012), the contents of...
