    Bug deduplication, ie, recognizing bug reports that refer to the same problem, is a challenging task in the software-engineering life cycle. Researchers have proposed several methods primarily relying on information-retrieval techniques. Our work motivated by the intuition that domain knowledge can

    provide the relevant context to enhance effectiveness, attempts to improve the use of information retrieval by augmenting with software-engineering knowledge. In our previous work, we proposed the software-literature-context method for using software-engineering literature as a source of contextual

    information to detect duplicates. If bug reports relate to similar subjects, they have a better chance of being duplicates. Our method, being largely automated, has a potential to substantially decrease the level of manual effort involved in conventional techniques with a minor trade-off in accuracy. In this
