Week 5

(June,28,2023)

Attendees:

Updates:

Holiday Break

  • This week's meeting was postponed due to the celebration of Eid al Adha, a prominent religious and public holiday in Egypt. With the consent of my mentors, the meeting was deferred.

Library Exploration

  • I ventured into the exploration of libraries that Gaurav proposed in our last discussion. After trying the Fossology Python library, I gravitated towards using the Python requests library directly. The code employed for dataset creation can be accessed here. For utilization, it necessitates the upload of the software repository to Fossology via the user interface initially. Subsequently, my code aids in extracting copyrights, collating them in a CSV, and preserving them.

Dataset Clarification

  • During the week, I concentrated on discerning the method to categorize the text yielded by the Fossology API into false positives or true positives.

Conclusion and Further Plans#

Dataset Clearing

  • Aim to refine the dataset curated through various software repositories, inclusive of Fossology's repository. The intention is to present the outcomes to the mentors in the impending week.
