Minor Revisions

The paper should be improved in terms of presentation and structure.

[# PeerJ Staff Note: Please ensure that all review comments are addressed in a response letter and any edits or clarifications mentioned in the letter are also inserted into the revised manuscript where appropriate.  It is a common mistake to address reviewer questions in the response letter but not in the revised manuscript. If a reviewer raised a question then your readers will probably have the same question so you should ensure that the manuscript can stand alone without the response letter.  Directions on how to prepare a response letter can be found at: https://peerj.com/benefits/academic-rebuttal-letters/ #]

Basic reporting

This paper "An experience selecting quality features of apps for
people with disabilities using abductive approach to
explanatory theory generation" is well organized and reasonable in structure. The comments are as follows:

Does the paper contribute to the body of knowledge?: Yes.

The paper proposes the first attempt
to improve the MARS tool, aiming to provide specialists relevant data, reducing noise
effects, accomplishing better predictive results to enhance their investigations.

this methodology allows the developers to use to analyze and develop software for the health informatics model and create a space in which software engineering and machine learning experts can work together on the machine learning model lifecycle.

Is the paper technically sound?: Yes. The paper is technically sound and is of very high quality. The various claims in the paper are quite well supported by the experiments and evaluate on a set of real data sets. the manuscript presents many FIGURE and many tables, this supports the researches idea and methodology. The results on real-world data sets are promising and motivate further investigations into the use of approximate inference in this context.

Is the subject matter presented in a comprehensive manner?: no. The presentation isn't comprehensive it needs to better organize and simplify the main objectives of the idea of the manuscript topic

Are the references provided applicable and sufficient?: Yes. Among all references, only poor references are in the past three years. In order to highlight the innovation of this work, it is better to cite other six up-to-date references to be applicable and sufficient enough to provide relevant materials about this novel approach software.

Reviewer 3 ·

Basic reporting

In this paper the authors present an study that determines the most relevant quality factors of apps for people with disabilities utilizing the abductive approach to the generation of an explanatory theory. The paper reads well and it is well organized. Very few recent references are included.

Experimental design

The contributions of the paper and the research questions should be clarified.

Validity of the findings

The results are well presented and support the findings presented in the discussion and conclusions sections.

Additional comments

Some aspects to improve:
- Introduction: clarify the contributions and research questions.
- Related Work: Analyze the references more deeply and include more references of the latest 5 years.
