• Authors: Xuechen Li, Chris J. Maddison, Daniel Tarlow
• Abstract summary: We extend the notion of program graphs to work-in-progress code by learning to predict edge relations between tokens. We consider the tasks of code completion and localizing and repairing variable misuse in a work-in-process scenario. We demonstrate that training relation-aware models with fine-tuned edges consistently leads to improved performance on both tasks.

• Abstract: Source code spends most of its time in a broken or incomplete state during software development. This presents a challenge to machine learning for code, since high-performing models typically rely on graph structured representations of programs derived from traditional program analyses. Such analyses may be undefined for broken or incomplete code. We extend the notion of program graphs to work-in-progress code by learning to predict edge relations between tokens, training on well-formed code before transferring to work-in-progress code. We consider the tasks of code completion and localizing and repairing variable misuse in a work-in-process scenario. We demonstrate that training relation-aware models with fine-tuned edges consistently leads to improved performance on both tasks.

  We introduce Visual Coder, a simple yet effective approach that enhances code reasoning by integrating multimodal Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning with a visual Control Flow Graph (CFG) By aligning code snippets with their corresponding CFGs, Visual Coder provides deeper insights into execution flow, enabling more accurate predictions of code behavior. Our experiments demonstrate that augmenting LLMs with visual CFGs significantly outperforms text-based CFG descriptions in code reasoning tasks.

• Learning to Predict Program Execution by Modeling Dynamic Dependency on Code Graphs [11.347234752942684]
  This paper introduces a novel machine learning-based framework called CodeFlow to predict code coverage and detect runtime errors. CodeFlow represents all possible execution paths and the relationships between different statements. It learns dynamic dependencies through execution traces, which reflect the impacts among statements during execution.

  Self-supervised pre-training has gained traction for learning generic code representations valuable for many downstream SE tasks. We argue that it is also essential to factor in how developers code day-to-day for general-purpose representation learning. In particular, we propose CONCORD, a self-supervised, contrastive learning strategy to place benign clones closer in the representation space while moving deviants further apart.

  Most pre-trained models for code intelligence ignore the execution trace and only rely on source code and syntactic structures. We develop a mutation-based data augmentation technique to create a large-scale and realistic Python dataset and task for code execution. We then present CodeExecutor, a Transformer model that leverages code execution pre-training and curriculum learning to enhance its semantic comprehension.

  We present GraphCodeBERT, a pre-trained model for programming language that considers the inherent structure of code. We use data flow in the pre-training stage, which is a semantic-level structure of code that encodes the relation of "where-the-value-comes-from" between variables. We evaluate our model on four tasks, including code search, clone detection, code translation, and code refinement.
