What is it about?

Its main idea is learning key features from Programs’ syntaxes and semantics via Attention-based recurrent neural network.

Why is it important?

Programs have their own particular syntactic structures and rich semantic information hidden in ASTs, which help analyzing and locating defects more accurately. Therefore, leveraging deep learning methods to mine hidden features of ASTs can generate significant features that better reflect the code context information, leading to more accurate software defect prediction.
