A new research paper from arXiv explores the issue of model instability in software analytics, where repeated runs of the same analysis can produce different results, thereby reducing trust. The study found that state-of-the-art optimizers agreed on only 13.7% of test cases. However, by adjusting parameters such as label spending, model complexity, and scoring methods, the researchers achieved models that agreed 4.8 times more often and improved recommendation quality. The paper concludes that model instability should be treated as a standard evaluation metric alongside performance, and suggests methods for measuring and managing it. AI
