CoCoNuT: combining context-aware neural translation models using ensemble for program repair

Thibaud Lutellier, Hung Viet Pham, Lawrence Pang, Yitong Li et al.

Short summary

CoCoNuT combines multiple neural machine translation models to automatically repair program bugs, overcoming limitations of rule-based methods.

AI-generated from the title and abstract; the full text is not read.

Key points

  • Existing automated program repair (APR) techniques use hard-coded rules that are difficult to adapt and require manual effort.
  • These rule-based methods are limited to fixing bugs that follow specific patterns.
  • CoCoNuT is proposed as an ensemble method combining context-aware neural translation models for APR.
  • The goal is to overcome the limitations of rule-based systems and improve adaptability across programming languages.

Abstract

Automated generate-and-validate (GV) program repair techniques (APR) typically rely on hard-coded rules, thus only fixing bugs following specific fix patterns. These rules require a significant amount of manual effort to discover and it is hard to adapt these rules to different programming languages.
