Non-functional requirements specify those qualities that software products must have in order to meet the user’s business requirements. The elicitation of these non-functional requirements requires expertise, experience, and domain knowledge, which is challenging and time-consuming for requirements engineers and developers. It would be very beneficial if the non-functional requirements can be automatically extracted from the requirements documentation to reduce the human efforts, time, and avoid the mental fatigue. In this paper, we present a novel deep neural network model called NFRNet to automatically extract non-functional requirements from software requirements documentation.
