We study the impact of Stack Overflow code evolution on the stability of prior research findings derived from Stack Overflow data and provide recommendations for future studies. We systematically reviewed papers published between 2005--2023…

We present DepCC, the largest-to-date linguistically analyzed corpus in English including 365 million documents, composed of 252 billion tokens and 7.5 billion of named entity occurrences in 14.3 billion sentences from a web-scale crawl of…

Collecting API examples, usages, and mentions relevant to a specific API method over discussions on venues such as Stack Overflow is not a trivial problem. It requires efforts to correctly recognize whether the discussion refers to the API…

Programming tutorials are often created to demonstrate programming tasks with code examples. However, our study of Stack Overflow questions reveals the low utilization of high-quality programming tutorials, which is caused task description…

Although pre-trained language models (PLMs) have achieved great success and become a milestone in NLP, abstractive conversational summarization remains a challenging but less studied task. The difficulty lies in two aspects. One is the lack…

Entity Linking is the task of matching a mention to an entity in a given knowledge base (KB). It contributes to annotating a massive amount of documents existing on the Web to harness new facts about their matched entities. However,…

One problem when studying how to find and fix syntax errors is how to get natural and representative examples of syntax errors. Most syntax error datasets are not free, open, and public, or they are extracted from novice programmers and do…

Energy consumption of software applications has emerged as a critical concern for developers to contemplate in their daily development processes. Previous studies have surveyed a limited number of developers to understand their viewpoints…

We introduce an open-domain topic classification system that accepts user-defined taxonomy in real time. Users will be able to classify a text snippet with respect to any candidate labels they want, and get instant response from our web…

Nearest neighbor search is a basic computational tool used extensively in almost research domains of computer science specially when dealing with large amount of data. However, the use of nearest neighbor search is restricted for the…

In this paper, we analyze several neural network designs (and their variations) for sentence pair modeling and compare their performance extensively across eight datasets, including paraphrase identification, semantic textual similarity,…

The problem of learning simultaneously several related tasks has received considerable attention in several domains, especially in machine learning with the so-called multitask learning problem or learning to learn problem [1], [2].…

For tasks like code synthesis from natural language, code retrieval, and code summarization, data-driven models have shown great promise. However, creating these models require parallel data between natural language (NL) and code with…

In this research, we manually create high-quality datasets in the digital humanities domain for the evaluation of language models, specifically word embedding models. The first step comprises the creation of unigram and n-gram datasets for…

Prior work has demonstrated that question classification (QC), recognizing the problem domain of a question, can help answer it more accurately. However, developing strong QC algorithms has been hindered by the limited size and complexity…

Deep learning methods are useful for high-dimensional data and are becoming widely used in many areas of software engineering. Deep learners utilizes extensive computational power and can take a long time to train-- making it difficult to…

Developing new ideas and algorithms in the fields of graph processing and relational learning requires public datasets. While Wikidata is the largest open source knowledge graph, involving more than fifty million entities, it is larger than…

Overlapping clusters are common in models of many practical data-segmentation applications. Suppose we are given $n$ elements to be clustered into $k$ possibly overlapping clusters, and an oracle that can interactively answer queries of the…

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) webpages are created by organizations for their users. FAQs are used in several scenarios, e.g., to answer user questions. On the other hand, the content of FAQs is affected by user questions by definition.…

Question answering has emerged as an intuitive way of querying structured data sources, and has attracted significant advancements over the years. In this article, we provide an overview over these recent advancements, focusing on neural…
