In our previous work, we proposed wavelet shrinkage estimation (WSE) for nonhomogeneous Poisson process (NHPP)‐based software reliability models (SRMs), where WSE is a data‐transform‐based nonparametric estimation method. Among many variance‐stabilizing data transformations, the Anscombe transform and the Fisz transform were employed. We have shown that it could provide higher goodness‐of‐fit performance than the conventional maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) and the least squares estimation (LSE) in many cases, in spite of its non‐parametric nature, through numerical experiments with real software‐fault count data. With the aim of improving the estimation accuracy of WSE, in this paper we introduce other three data transformations to preprocess the software‐fault count data and investigate the influence of different data transformations to the estimation accuracy of WSE through goodness‐of‐fit test.
