REGRESSION ANALYSIS FOR SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT AND MANAGEMENT USING MACHINE LEARNING

A device configured to obtain project information identifying a set of programs and to generate a program matrix. The device is further configured to identify entries in the program matrix where a row and a column correspond with the same program and to set the identified entries with a value of one. The device is further configured to identify programs from among the set programs that are called by a program and to set the identified entries in the program matrix that correspond with the identified programs with a value of one. The device is further configured to input the program matrix into a first machine learning model to obtain relationship information. The relationship information maps the set of programs to a spatial domain where a distance between a pair of programs in the spatial domain corresponds with a level of impact between the pair of programs.
