Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products for deploying a static code analyzer based on program synthesis from input-output examples. A computer system uses program synthesis on a set of input-output examples of source code edits to generate a rewrite rule that defines a transformation pattern. Based on a determined static code analyzer format, the computer system generates a static code analyzer from the rewrite rule. The static code analyzer includes a find portion that indicates a matching condition for identifying a portion of source code text, and a fix portion that indicates a textual replacement to apply to the portion of source code text matched by the find portion. The computer system deploys the static code analyzer to a development environment, including configuring the static code analyzer to be executable against a source code file within the development environment.

Abstract: Generating a template based on source code examples includes identifying a set of related files within a source code project, and identifying a set of textual content portions that are each at least partially repeated across a subset of the related files. A set of templates is generated, each comprising at least one textual content portion from the set of textual content portions. Each template is associated with a set of selection criteria. The set of templates is exposed for automated consumption within a source code editor, based on the set of selection criteria associated with each template. Consuming a template includes identifying a user input indicating creation of a source code block or file within the source code editor, identifying attribute(s) of the source code block or file, and using the attribute(s) to identify a selection criterion associated with a particular template. The particular template is automatically presented.

Abstract: Techniques are described herein that are capable of synthesizing a computer program to include idiomatic function(s) and semantically-meaningful variable(s) using programming by example. For instance, an intent of a user to synthesize a computer program to include functionality configured to generate sample output(s) from respective input(s) is determined based at least in part on receipt of the sample input(s) and the respective sample output(s) from the user. Based at least in part on the determined intent, the computer program is synthesized to include the idiomatic function(s) by configuring the idiomatic function(s) to have the target functionality and to conform to a convention of the target domain-specific language associated with a textual representation of the computer program to be displayed to the user. Non-semantically-meaningful variable(s) included among the idiomatic function(s) are replaced with the respective semantically-meaningful variable(s).

Abstract: Embodiments automate surfacing of underutilized development tool features, thereby enhancing the discoverability of subtools, commands, shortcuts, settings, visualizers, and other tool features. After spotting an inefficiency in the user's interaction with one or more tools, the feature surfacing functionality offers the user an interaction optimization suggestion. A mapping structure correlates detected interaction patterns with objectively better interaction optimizations. Several examples of mappings are discussed. The user can accept a suggestion, have the suggested optimization applied by an enhanced tool, and thereby reduce the number of user gestures utilized to accomplish a desired result, reduce the number of tools utilized, increase security, reduce risk of error, or get to the desired result faster, for example. Interaction optimizations also help the user stay focused, by reducing or avoiding departures from the user's current primary workflow.

Abstract: Embodiments use a multi-modal approach to generate software programs that match a solution program description. The solution program description may include natural language, input-output examples, partial source code, desired operators, or other hints. Some embodiments use optimized prompts to a pre-trained language model to obtain initial candidate programs. Maximal program components are extracted and then recombined variously using component-based synthesis. Beam search reduces a solution program search space by discarding some candidates from a given synthesis iteration. Relevance metrics, string similarity metrics, operator frequency distributions, token rareness scores, and other optimizations may be employed. By virtue of optimizations and the multi-modal approach, a solution program may be obtained after fewer iterations than by use of a language model alone.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for leakage source detection are described. In some cases, a testing device may scan a first set of access lines of a memory die that have a first length and a second set of access lines of the memory die that have a second length different than the first length. The testing device may determine a first error rate associated with the first set of access lines and a second error rate associated with the second set of access lines. The testing device may categorize a performance of the memory die based on the first and second error rates. In some cases, the testing device may determine a third error rate associated with a type of error based on the first and second error rates and may categorize the performance of the memory die based on the third error rate.

Abstract: Disclosed is a technical solution to process a video that captures actions to be performed for completing a task based on a chronological sequence of stages within the task. An example system may identify an action sequence from an instruction for the task. The system inputs the action sequence into a trained model (e.g., a recurrent neural network), which outputs the chronological sequence of stages. The RNN may be trained through self-supervised learning. The system may input the video and the chronological sequence of stages into another trained model, e.g., a temporal convolutional network. The other trained model may include hidden layers arranged before an attention layer. The hidden layers may extract features from the video and feed the features into the attention layer. The attention layer may determine attention weights of the features based on the chronological sequence of stages.

Abstract: A state machine motor controller (SMMC) interface comprises a plurality of states which defines a unique set of poles/motor phase/phases energized. Digital sensors capture the start of overlap of rotor poles with stator poles. The state change occurs when a rotor pole starts overlapping with a stator pole. The number of states depends on the number of phases and the design of the motor. The SMMC has up to four inputs to accept rotational information from digital sensors and can control motors having up to 16 states. A sequencer is used to keep track of state changes and provides a next state depending on forward/reverse direction setting and braking setting. A counter provides rotational speed based upon the number of clock pulses per time period for a state change. The sequencer checks for a faulty sensor(s) and generates a fault interrupt therefrom.

Abstract: Embodiments automate several aspects of document copy-paste updates. An enhanced editor submits context, such as a copied section, pasted section, nearby text, or parser information, to an automatic suggestion generator. The editor gets back a suggestion for automatically changing the pasted section, thus helping users avoid tedium and errors. For instance, string substitutions begun by the user can be automatically and easily completed within the pasted section. Refactoring between variable declarations and parameter lists is detected and completed on request. Situation-specific transforms based on code synthesis, word associations, temporal edit patterns, anchor target lists, regular expressions, or autocompletion are offered. Suggestions are given inside the user's current workflow to avoid breaks in focus. Suggestions can be refined automatically in response to implicit or explicit user feedback. Users are warned of unedited pasted sections. Code review is aided by highlighting pasted sections.
