Question: How to mark bugs that are assigned to the wrong component to improve the model?

Open muffinresearch opened this issue 4 years ago • 2 comments

Over on Add-ons we see some bugs that get erroneously being assigned to Web-extensions / Addons-Manager.

Is there a preferred way to label bugs so you can improve the ML model e.g. using a whiteboard tag? Or is this automatic when you see that something was moved into a different component changing what was set by bugbug?

It will learn from mistakes automatically, but if you noticed a common pattern between those wrong assignments I could maybe change the model to take the pattern into account.

@marco-c thanks! One recurring pattern that we did notice is that in bugs where the reporter does mention the work "add-ons" or "extensions" but in a negative form (e.g. this issue is also reproducible in safe mode and with add-ons disabled and other forms similar to this one) the bot seems to consider the fact that "add-ons" was part of the comment as something that contribute to the decision of moving the bug into the WebExtension component.
