/ Ayman Odeh Munther Odeh Hussein Odeh Nada Odeh

High-performance, high-quality software is a fundamental goal for all developers. To achieve this, software needs to be built with exceptional quality, featuring a simplified structure, strong coherence, and minimized complexity. Cyclomatic Complexity (CC), critical software metric, quantifies the intricacy of a program's structure and control flow. Traditionally, CC measurement has relied on laborious manual techniques or conventional programming methods, both prone to errors and inefficiency. To overcome these limitations, we present a revolutionary approach that leverages a Multinomial Naive Bayes (MNB) machine learning (ML) algorithm for automated CC measurement. This innovative method offers a more accurate, efficient, and reliable means of software complexity evaluation. Our study utilizes a vast dataset of 3,598 carefully curated programming samples from diverse programming projects across three popular languages: Java, Python, and C++. Training our MNB model on this comprehensive and diverse dataset yielded an outstanding overall accuracy of 97.3%, demonstrating the efficacy and reliability of our approach for CC measurement across different programming languages (PLs). This success can be attributed to the utilization of the NBM learning algorithm, known for its proficiency in classification tasks. Additionally, our study benefits from a larger and more diverse dataset compared to prior research, potentially contributing to the superior results. Our novel approach to CC measurement using machine learning holds significant promise for the development of more accurate and reliable code complexity assessment tools. These encouraging findings suggest that this approach has the potential to shape more effective software development practices in the future.

Zaka Ullah Ayman Odeh Muath Al Hasan

The early detection of brain tumors is crucial due to their highly dangerous nature and the potential for life-threatening consequences if left undiagnosed. Brain tumors significantly shorten life expectancy and cause extensive damage. To accurately diagnose brain tumors, medical imaging techniques such as MRI and other diagnostic tests play a vital role in the classification process. Artificial intelligence, specifically deep learning and computer vision, offers valuable techniques for detecting and classifying brain tumors. In this research, our focus is on developing an improved methodology for brain tumor classification. We implemented a proposed model using five pre-trained models: CNN, ResNet101, InceptionV3, VGG16, and VGG19. By employing data augmentation techniques, we enhanced their performance. The achieved Precision, Recall, and F1-Measure for unseen images were 95%, 95%, 95%, 97%, and 95%, respectively, as tested using three open datasets. Furthermore, aside from improving early tumor detection, these accuracy improvements have the potential to reduce disabilities such as paralysis. Data augmentation, accomplished through image rotation, scaling, and flipping, proves to be an effective means of enhancing model performance by generating new images with improved quality

Software developers strive to build high-performance and quality software with a very high degree of coherence among its components, simplified structure, and reduced complexity. A cyclomatic complexity measure is used to identify areas of code that are difficult to maintain or debug by determining how many independent paths, conditional and iteration statements there are through the source code. Using AI, it is possible to estimate and measure the cyclomatic complexity of source code by analyzing the structure of the code and identifying any potential areas where complexity could arise. This research aims to utilize deep learning methodologies, specifically for text classification, to measure the Cyclomatic Complexity of source code, it presents a method for measuring source code Cyclomatic Complexity using Multinomial Naive Bayes Machine Learning Model trained on 3270 samples collected from programs written in Python, Java, and C++. The results show an average accuracy of 96% and precision, recall, and f1-score were calculated for different levels of complexity.

/ Ayman Odeh Munther Odeh Hussein Odeh Nada Odeh

Classifying Programming Languages scripts is very important task for several reasons such as: automated analysis, code maintenance, code search, quality assurance, and code understanding; this process is similar to processing natural languages, especially high-level languages like Python, Java, C#, C, C++, PHP, JavaScript, and others. Leveraging natural language processing concepts, this research explores the application of the Multinomial Naïve Bayes (MNB) algorithm to identify and classify programming languages used in source code files. MNB is a relatively simple and fast algorithm for text classification. The study utilizes a dataset comprising 12 programming languages and consists of 12,003 samples, totaling 396,090 lines of code. The MNB algorithm is trained on this diverse dataset, and its performance in classifying programming language source code is evaluated. The results of the study demonstrate an impressive accuracy rate of 95.09% in accurately identifying and classifying programming languages. This high accuracy highlights the effectiveness of the applied NLP techniques, specifically the MNB algorithm, in the classification task. The findings of this research have significant implications for multi-programming language editors such as Visual Studio Code and Notepad+ or any programming editor. With the automatic recognition of programming languages enabled by this approach, users can conveniently paste source code into these editors, and the system will automatically identify and classify the programming language being used. This functionality enhances the user experience and streamlines the coding process, particularly in multi-language development environments

Processing programming languages are very similar to processing natural languages, especially high-level languages such as Python, Java, C#, C, C++, and others. Therefore, the natural language processing concepts can be applied as one of the most important branches of artificial intelligence in detecting, recognizing, and classification scripts written in different programming languages. The programming language script classification can be counted as a classical machine learning problem. This research aims to present a model using Multinomial Naïve Bayes (MNB) artificial intelligence algorithm to identify and classify the programming language used in writing the source code file provided as an input for the proposed model. A set of categorized files containing source codes will be used in training the proposed model, and then the model will be able to automatically detect and classify a new script into one of the already trained categories. The machine learning method called NB Multinomial will be used to implement this matter. This work is very important for Mufti-programming language editors such as Visual Studio Code, Notepad+, and others, where the user can paste the source code, and the editor will recognize the programming language automatically.
