Abstract(in English) We propose the Concept Keyword Term Frequency/Inverse Document Frequency (ckTF/IDF) method as a novel technique to efficiency mine concept keywords from identifiers in large software projects. ckTF/IDF is suitable for mining concept keywords, since the ckTF/IDF is more lightweight than the TF/IDF method, and the ckTF/IDF's heuristics is tuned for identifiers in programs. We then experimentally apply the ckTF/IDF to our educational operating system udos, consisting of around 5, 000 lines in C code, which produced promising results;the udos's source code was processed in 2.8 seconds with an accuracy of around 57%. This preliminary result suggests that our approach is useful for mining concept keywords from identifiers, although we need more research and experience.
