Neural Models for Source Code Synthesis and Completion

Natural language (NL) to code suggestion systems assist developers in Integrated Development Environments (IDEs) by translating NL utterances into compilable code snippet. The current approaches mainly involve hard-coded, rule-based systems based on semantic parsing. These systems make heavy use of hand-crafted rules that map patterns in NL or elements in its syntax parse tree to various query constructs and can only work on a limited subset of NL with a restricted NL syntax. These systems are unable to extract semantic …
