Failures Database
This database contains reports analyzing software failures from the news. Currently, it contains failures from 2010 to 2022. This database was created through the FAIL (Failure Analysis Investigation with LLM) project. FAIL leverages Large Language Models (LLMs) to collect and analyze software failures reported in the news. Our work has been presented in the paper titled "FAIL: Analyzing Software Failures from the News Using LLMs." Contributing members include Dharun Anandayuvaraj, Matthew Campbell, Tanmay Singla, Parth Patil, Arav Tewari, and James C. Davis from Purdue University.
