In-Depth Analysis of Various Artificial Intelligence Techniques in Software Engineering: Experimental Study

In this paper, we have extended our literature survey with experimental implementation. Analyzing numerous Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques in software engineering (SE) can help understand the field better; the outcomes will be more effective when used with it. Our manuscript shows various AI-based algorithms that include Machine learning techniques (ML), Artificial Neural Networks (ANN), Deep Neural Networks (DNN) and Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN), Natural Language Processing (NLP), Genetic Algorithms (GA) applications. Software testing using Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) approach, predicting software maintainability with Group Method of Data Handling (GMDH), Probabilistic Neural Network (PNN), and Software production with time series analysis technique. Furthermore, data is the fuel for AI-based model testing and validation techniques. We have also used NASA dataset promise repository in our script. There are various applications of AI in SE, and we have experimentally demonstrated one among them, i.e., software defect prediction using AI-based techniques. Moreover, the expected future trends have also been mentioned; these are some significant contributions to the research
