We propose a novel approach to detect fault-prone modules in a way that the source code modules are considered as text files and are applied to the spam filter directly. In order to show the applicability of our approach, we conducted experimental applications using source code repositories of Java based open source developments. The result of experiments shows that our approach can classify more than 75\% of software modules correctly.}, keywords = {argouml, bug reports, classification, eclipse, java, modules, scm, spam, text mining}, isbn = {0-7695-2950-X}, doi = {10.1109/MSR.2007.29}, attachments = {https://flosshub.org/sites/flosshub.org/files/28300004.pdf}, author = {Mizuno, Osamu and Ikami, Shiro and Nakaichi, Shuya and Kikuno, Tohru} }
