Predicting Issue Types with seBERT

3 May 2022  ·  Alexander Trautsch, Steffen Herbold ·

Pre-trained transformer models are the current state-of-the-art for natural language models processing. seBERT is such a model, that was developed based on the BERT architecture, but trained from scratch with software engineering data. We fine-tuned this model for the NLBSE challenge for the task of issue type prediction. Our model dominates the baseline fastText for all three issue types in both recall and precisio} to achieve an overall F1-score of 85.7%, which is an increase of 4.1% over the baseline.
