Abstract
In this present world of technology, software engineering is needed almost in every industry, institution etc. On the other hand, data mining processes raw data to obtain useful information. By implementing data mining in software engineering, software quality and productivity can be improved. This paper examines this fascinating and still advancing research area, so that readers can easily get an elaborate outline. We review in detail existing techniques of data mining for software engineering research and provide a comparative evaluation.
