CLAMS: Clustering for API Mining of Snippets

CLAMS is an approach for mining API source code snippets that lies between snippet and sequence mining methods, which ensures lower complexity and thus could apply more readily to other languages.

This is an implementation of the API miner from our paper:

@inbook{katirtzis2018clams,
  title={Summarizing Software API Usage Examples using Clustering Techniques},
  author={Nikolaos Katirtzis and Themistoklis Diamantopoulos and Charles Sutton},
  year={2018},
  booktitle={Proceedings of the 21st International Conference on Fundamental Approaches to Software Engineering}
}

Structure of the project

main.py: This is the main function of the project.

/apisummariser: Contains all the implementation files. The project is augmented with docstrings. Running pydoc -p <PORT> will reveal the documentation.

/data: Contains the dataset+examples and results for clams and other systems being used for the evaluation.

/libs: Contains any third-party libraries used in the implementation (excluding any Python libraries).

/results: The results of the system will be stored here.

requirements.txt: These are the dependencies on third-party Python libraries.

Installation Instructions

Cd to the project's directory:

cd clams
