Recent years have witnessed the growing demands for resolving numerous bug reports in software maintenance. Aiming to reduce the time testers/developers take in perusing bug reports, the task of bug report summarization has attracted a lot of research efforts in the literature. However, no systematic analysis has been conducted on attribute construction, which heavily impacts the performance of supervised algorithms for bug report summarization. In this study, we first conduct a survey to reveal the existing methods for attribute construction in mining software repositories. Then, we propose a new method named Crowd-Attribute to infer new effective attributes from the crowd-generated data in crowdsourcing and develop a new tool named Crowdsourcing Software Engineering Platform to facilitate this method. With Crowd-Attribute, we successfully construct 11 new attributes and propose a new supervised algorithm named Logistic Regression with Crowdsourced Attributes (LRCA). To evaluate the effectiveness of LRCA, we build a series of large scale datasets with 105 177 bug reports. Experiments over both the public dataset SDS with 36 manually annotated bug reports and new large-scale datasets demonstrate that LRCA can consistently outperform the state-of-the-art algorithms for bug report summarization.
