A novel method for software effort estimation using inverse regression as firing interval in fuzzy logic

Software effort estimation is the most essential in-order to develop a software system and it can analyze the project decisions like resource allocation and bidding which can be used to complete the project with respect to time/within the scope of the time. It gives estimation about the cost and time required for software development. It can be implemented through various estimation techniques and estimation models. In this paper, we proposed a new model using fuzzy logic in-order to estimate the most important factors of software effort estimation such as cost and time. We use MATLAB to determine the parameters of various cost estimation models. The performance of model is evaluated on published software projects data. Comparison of results from our model with existing ubiquitous models is shown.
