Repository Structure

The package is structured as follows:

• DeepHyperion-MNIST contains the DeepHyperion tool adapted to the handwritten digit classification case study and the instructions on how to use it;
• DeepHyperion-BNG contains the DeepHyperion tool adapted to the self-driving car case study and the instructions on how to use it;
• DeepHyperion-IMDB contains the DeepHyperion tool adapted to the movie review sentiment analysis study and the instructions on how to use it;
• experiments-issta contains the raw experimental data and the scripts to obtain the results reported in the ISSTA paper;
• experiments-tosem contains the raw experimental data and the scripts to obtain the results reported in the TOSEM paper;
• documentation contains a quick installation guide and a detailed description of the tool.
• preprint is the preprint version of our paper describing DeepHyperion.

Note: each sub-package contains further specific instructions.
