Previous investigation focused on the prediction of total and errors for embedded software development projects using an artificial neural network (ANN). However, methods using ANNs have reached their improvement limits, since an appropriate value is estimated using what is known as point estimation in statistics. This paper proposes a method for predicting the number of errors for embedded software development projects using interval estimation provided by a support vector machine and ANN.
