Large Language Models have advanced automated software development, however, it remains a challenge to correctly infer dependencies, namely, identifying the internal components and external packages required for a repository to successfully run. Existing studies highlight that dependency-related iss…
The issue-resolving task, where a model generates patches to fix real-world bugs, has emerged as a key benchmark for evaluating the capabilities of large language models (LLMs). While SWE-bench has become the dominant benchmark in this domain, it suffers from several limitations: it has not been upd…
Code translation benchmarks are essential for evaluating the accuracy and efficiency of LLM-based systems. Existing benchmarks mainly target individual functions, overlooking repository-level challenges like intermodule coherence and dependency management. Recent repository-level efforts exist, but
Software version migration and program translation are an important and costly part of the lifecycle of large codebases. Traditional machine translation relies on parallel corpora for supervised translation, which is not feasible for program translation due to a dearth of aligned data. Recent unsupe…
Automatic Program translation has enormous application value and hence has been attracting significant interest from AI researchers. However, we observe that current program translation models still make elementary syntax errors, particularly, when the target language does not have syntax elements i…
We study a new connection between a technical measure called $\mu$-conductance that arises in the study of Markov chains for sampling convex bodies and the network community profile that characterizes size-resolved properties of clusters and communities in social and information networks. The idea o…
Continual learning has become increasingly important as it enables NLP models to constantly learn and gain knowledge over time. Previous continual learning methods are mainly designed to preserve knowledge from previous tasks, without much emphasis on how to well generalize models to new tasks. In t…
