With the advancement of deep learning techniques, the performance of Automatic Program Repair(APR) techniques has reached a new level. Previous deep learning-based APR techniques essentially modified program sentences in the…

Counterfactual explanations (CFEs) guide users on how to adjust inputs to machine learning models to achieve desired outputs. While existing research primarily addresses static scenarios, real-world applications often involve data or model…

While modern multivariate forecasters such as Transformers and GNNs achieve strong benchmark performance, they often suffer from systematic errors at specific variables or horizons and, critically, lack guarantees against performance…

Critical-infrastructure operators are increasingly expected to assess and remediate vulnerabilities in deployed industrial software. However, much of this software exists as opaque industrial software (OIS), including stripped firmware,…

Automated program repair (APR) has achieved promising results, especially using neural networks. Yet, the overwhelming majority of patches produced by APR tools are confined to one single location. When looking at the patches produced with…

The study of question answering has received increasing attention in recent years. This work focuses on providing an answer that compatible with both user intent and conditioning information corresponding to the question, such as delivery…

Software changes frequently. To efficiently deal with such frequent changes, software verification tools must be incremental. Most of today's approaches for incremental verification consider one specific verification approach. One exception…

Trigger-Action Programming (TAP) is a popular end-user programming framework in the home automation (HA) system, which eases users to customize home automation and control devices as expected. However, its simplified syntax also introduces…

We propose a novel framework, termed Fourier-Activated Adapter (FAA), for parameter-efficient fine-tuning of large pre-trained language models. By incorporating random Fourier features into lightweight adapter modules, FAA decomposes…

We present a method for automatic inference of conditions on the initial states of a program that guarantee that the safety assertions in the program are not violated. Constrained Horn clauses (CHCs) are used to model the program and…

We apply multiple testing procedures to the validation of estimated default probabilities in credit rating systems. The goal is to identify rating classes for which the probability of default is estimated inaccurately, while still…

Automated program repair techniques aim to aid software developers with the challenging task of fixing bugs. In heuristic-based program repair, a search space of program variants, created via mutations on software, is explored to find…

Automated Program Repair (APR) techniques typically rely on a given test-suite to guide the repair process. Apart from the need to provide test oracles, this makes the produced patches prone to test data over-fitting. In this work, instead…

We propose a method combining machine learning with a static analysis tool (i.e. Infer) to automatically repair source code. Machine Learning methods perform well for producing idiomatic source code. However, their output is sometimes…

Automated program repair (APR) aims to fix software bugs automatically without human debugging efforts and plays a crucial role in software development and maintenance. Despite promising, APR is still challenged by a long-standing…

Test-based automatic program repair has attracted a lot of attention in recent years. However, the test suites in practice are often too weak to guarantee correctness and existing approaches often generate a large number of incorrect…

Counterfactual (CF) explanations have been employed as one of the modes of explainability in explainable AI-both to increase the transparency of AI systems and to provide recourse. Cognitive science and psychology, however, have pointed out…

Despite the evolution of language models, they continue to portray harmful societal biases and stereotypes inadvertently learned from training data. These inherent biases often result in detrimental effects in various applications.…

We consider the problem of learning to perform a task from demonstrations given by teachers or experts, when some of the experts' demonstrations might be adversarial and demonstrate an incorrect way to perform the task. We propose a novel…

Automated Program Repair (APR) aims to automatically fix bugs in the source code. Recently, as advances in Deep Learning (DL) field, there is a rise of Neural Program Repair (NPR) studies, which formulate APR as a translation task from…
