Overview

The objective of the seminar is to:

  • Introduce students to the emerging field of Deep Learning for Big Code.
  • Learn how machine learning models can be used to solve practical challenges in software engineering and programming beyond traditional methods.
  • Highlight the latest research and work opportunities in industry and academia available on this topic.

The seminar is carried out as a set of presentations (2 each lecture) chosen from a set of available papers (available below). The grade is determined as a function of the presentation, handling questions and answers, and participation:
