Abstract
Prediction of software bugs from process logs, temporal access
logs, behavior analysis, etc. requires estimation of a wide variety
of high-density feature sets. Extracted feature sets must be able
to classify these logs into different bug categories with high
accuracy, and low complexity. To perform these tasks, a wide
variety of Machine Learning Models (MLMs) are proposed by
researchers, and each of them varies in terms of their performance-
level nuances, functional advantages, contextual limitations,
and application-specific future scopes. Upon analyzing these
characteristics, it was observed that existing models are highly
context-specific, and cannot be applied to multidomain bug
analysis datasets. Moreover, existing models do not incorporate
a dynamic feature selection method, which limits their accuracy
performance under multiple bug classification applications. To
overcome these issues, this paper proposes design of a novel
Ensemble deep learning Classifer with Feature Selection for high-
efciency Multidomain Bug Prediction under diferent use cases.
The proposed model improves bug representation performance
by combining multiple feature extraction methods, including
GWO-based novel feature selection techniques. The ensemble
