Research on the causes of false positives in source code detection

Abstract

Source code is an important part of information system. With the rapid development of Internet, there are more and more information systems, and the work of source code detection is also increasing. At present, the work of source code detection usually depends on automatic inspection tools, but automatic tools bring convenience and some false positives. Therefore, this paper studies the causes of false positives in the process of source code detection, and puts forward several methods to reduce the false positives rate of source code detection. The methods improve the efficiency and quality of source code detection effectively.
