New dataset classifies GitHub repos by industry using AI

By PulseAugur Editorial · [2 sources] ·

Researchers have developed a new method, NAICS-GH, to classify GitHub repositories by industry sector using the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS). This approach combines AI models like GPT-4.1 and embeddings with retrieval techniques to label repositories, addressing a gap in understanding the industrial composition of open-source development. The resulting dataset includes over 6,500 high-confidence labels and is released with the pipeline code and prompts under open-source licenses. AI

IMPACT Enables new empirical studies on the industrial distribution and economic impact of open-source software development.

RANK_REASON The cluster describes a research paper detailing a new dataset and methodology for classifying GitHub repositories.
