Code Clone Detection based on Event Embedding and Event Dependency

The code clone detection method based on semantic similarity has important value in software engineering tasks (e.g., software evolution, software reuse). Traditional code clone detection technologies pay more attention to the similarity of code at the syntax level, and less attention to the semantic similarity of the code. As a result, candidate codes similar in semantics are ignored. To address this issue, we propose a code clone detection method based on semantic similarity. By treating code as a series of interdependent events that occur continuously, we design a model namely EDAM to encode code semantic information based on event embedding and event dependency. The EDAM model uses the event embedding method to model the execution characteristics of program statements and the data dependence information between all statements. In this way, we can embed the program semantic information into a vector and use the vector to detect codes similar in semantics. Experimental results show that the performance of our EDAM model is superior to state of-the-art open source models for code clone detection.

High-Resolution Network for Photorealistic Style Transfer

Photorealistic style transfer aims to transfer the style of one image to another, but preserves the original structure and detail outline of the content image, which makes the content image still look like a real shot after the style transfer. Although some realistic image styling methods have been proposed, these methods are vulnerable to lose the details of the content image and produce some irregular distortion structures. In this paper, we use a high-resolution network as the image generation network. Compared to other methods, which reduce the resolution and then restore the high resolution, our generation network maintains high resolution throughout the process. By connecting high-resolution subnets to low-resolution subnets in parallel and repeatedly multi-scale fusion, high-resolution subnets can continuously receive information from low-resolution subnets. This allows our network to discard less information contained in the image, so the generated images may have a more elaborate structure and less distortion, which is crucial to the visual quality. We conducted extensive experiments and compared the results with existing methods. The experimental results show that our model is effective and produces better results than existing methods for photorealistic image stylization.
