Front-end development constitutes a substantial portion of software engineering, yet converting design mockups into production-ready *User Interface* (UI) code remains tedious and time-costly. While recent work has explored automating this process with *Multimodal Large Language Models* (MLLMs), e…
Large Language models (LLMs) are revolutionizing the conversational recommender systems (CRS) through their impressive capabilities in instruction comprehension, reasoning, and human interaction. A core factor underlying effective dialogue is the ability to infer and reason about others
Large Language Models (LLMs) have exhibited exceptional performance in software engineering yet face challenges in adapting to continually evolving code knowledge, particularly the frequent updates of third-party library APIs. This limitation, rooted in the static pre-training datasets, often result…
Language Models (LMs) are increasingly used for type inference, aiding in error detection and software development. Some real-world deployments of LMs require the model to run on local machines to safeguard the intellectual property of the source code. This setting often limits the size of the LMs…
Code Pre-trained Models (CodePTMs) based vulnerability detection have achieved promising results over recent years. However, these models struggle to generalize as they typically learn superficial mapping from source code to labels instead of understanding the root causes of code vulnerabilities, re…
Large Language Models (LLMs) have shown remarkable progress in automated code generation. Yet, LLM-generated code may contain errors in API usage, class, data structure, or missing project-specific information. As much of this project-specific context cannot fit into the prompts of LLMs, we must fin…
Incremental and decremental learning (IDL) deals with the tasks where new data arrives sequentially as a stream or old data turns unavailable continually due to the privacy protection. Existing IDL methods mainly focus on support vector machine and its variants with linear-type loss. There are few s…
Optimal margin Distribution Machine (ODM) is a newly proposed statistical learning framework rooting in the novel margin theory, which demonstrates better generalization performance than the traditional large margin based counterparts. Nonetheless, it suffers from the ubiquitous scalability problem…
Temporal Knowledge Graph (TKG) reasoning, which focuses on leveraging temporal information to infer future facts in knowledge graphs, plays a vital role in knowledge graph completion. Typically, existing works for this task design graph neural networks and recurrent neural networks to respectively c…
Positive-unlabeled (PU) learning deals with the circumstances where only a portion of positive instances are labeled, while the rest and all negative instances are unlabeled, and due to this confusion, the class prior can not be directly available. Existing PU learning methods usually estimate the c…
