Partial code execution is the problem of executing code with missing definitions. The problem has gained recent traction as solutions to the problem could enable various downstream analyses. We propose feedback-directed partial execution, a technique ...

Software developers frequently use code completion tools to accelerate software development by suggesting the following code elements. Researchers usually employ AutoRegressive (AR) decoders to complete code sequences in a left-to-right, token-by-token ...

Code completion aims to help improve developers’ productivity by suggesting the next code tokens from a given context. Various approaches have been proposed to incorporate abstract syntax tree (AST) information for model training, ...

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a revolutionary network of interconnected devices embedded with sensors and software that enables seamless communication, data sharing, and intelligent decision-making in the form of IoT services. To facilitate the ...

• Code completion techniques in IoT service layer accelerate development and enhance intelligent sensing.
• Graph Neural Networks improve smaller language models for multi-token code completion.
• The S2RCC framework predicts code ...

Code completion has become a common practice for programmers during their daily programming activities. It automatically predicts the next tokens or statements that the programmers may use. Code completion aims to substantially save keystrokes and ...

Learning and remembering to use APIs are difficult. Several techniques have been proposed to assist developers in using APIs. Most existing techniques focus on recommending the right API methods to call, but very few techniques focus ...

• Argument recommendation is a very frequent but challenging task.
• Arguments must ...

Automatic program synthesis is a long-lasting dream in software engineering. Recently, a promising Deep Learning (DL) based solution, called Copilot, has been proposed by OpenAI and Microsoft as an industrial product. Although some ...

• We investigate the quality of the code Copilot generates as an AI pair programmer.

Code completion is an important feature in integrated development environments that can accelerate the coding process. With the development of deep learning technologies and easy-to-acquire open-source codebases, many Deep Learning based code ...

Code completion has become an indispensable feature of modern Integrated Development Environments. In recent years, many approaches have been proposed to tackle this task. However, it is hard to compare between the models without explicitly re-...

Code completion is essential in integrated development environments (IDEs). It has also shown intelligence in helping developers to product. Recently, neural network-based models have helped improve code completion by capturing code information from ...

Code completion, one of the most useful features in the Integrated Development Environments (IDEs), can accelerate software development by suggesting the next probable tokens based on existing code in real-time. Recent studies have shown that ...

In software development, code autocomplete can be an essential tool in order to accelerate coding. However, many of these tools built into the IDEs are limited to suggesting only methods or arguments, often presenting to the user long lists of ...

Code completion tools are increasingly important when developing modern software. Recently, statistical language modeling techniques have achieved great success in the code completion task. However, two major issues with these techniques severely affect ...

In software development through integrated development environments (IDEs), code completion is one of the most widely used features. Nevertheless, majority of integrated development environments only support completion of methods and APIs, or arguments. ...

Code completion, one of the most useful features in the Integrated Development Environments (IDEs), can accelerate software development by suggesting the libraries, APIs, and method names in real-time. Recent studies have shown that statistical language ...

Code suggestion system is widely used in integrated development environments (IDEs) for generating code recommendations while editing to improve program efficiency. Current most common systems focus on the settings that complete a single code unit or ...
