• Abstract summary: We propose a code clone detection method based on semantic similarity. By treating code as a series of interdependent events that occur continuously, we design a model namely EDAM to encode code semantic information. Experimental results show that our EDAM model is superior to state-the-art open source models for code clone detection.

• Abstract: The code clone detection method based on semantic similarity has important value in software engineering tasks (e.g., software evolution, software reuse). Traditional code clone detection technologies pay more attention to the similarity of code at the syntax level, and less attention to the semantic similarity of the code. As a result, candidate codes similar in semantics are ignored. To address this issue, we propose a code clone detection method based on semantic similarity. By treating code as a series of interdependent events that occur continuously, we design a model namely EDAM to encode code semantic information based on event embedding and event dependency. The EDAM model uses the event embedding method to model the execution characteristics of program statements and the data dependence information between all statements. In this way, we can embed the program semantic information into a vector and use the vector to detect codes similar in semantics. Experimental results show that the performance of our EDAM model is superior to state of-the-art open source models for code clone detection.

  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.

  We propose using Representational Similarity Analysis to probe the semantic grounding in language models of code.
