Learning to Fix Build Errors with Graph2Diff Neural Networks

Professional software developers spend a significant amount of time fixing builds, but this has received little attention as a problem in automatic program repair. We present a new deep learning architecture, called Graph2Diff, for automatically localizing and fixing build errors. We represent source code, build configuration files, and compiler diagnostic messages as a graph, and then use a Graph Neural Network model to predict a diff. A diff specifies how to modify the code's abstract syntax tree, represented in the neural network as a sequence of tokens and of pointers to code locations. Our network is an instance of a more general abstraction that we call Graph2Tocopo, which is potentially useful in any development tool for predicting source code changes. We evaluate the model on a dataset of over 500k real build errors and their resolutions from professional developers. Compared to the approach of DeepDelta (Mesbah et al., 2019), our approach tackles the harder task of predicting a more precise diff but still achieves over double the accuracy.

To Prepare for Automation, Stay Curious and Don't Stop Learning -
Earlier this year, President Trump signed an executive order for the "American AI Initiative," to guide AI developments and investments in the following areas: research and development, ethical standards, automation, and international outreach. This initiative is indicative of the changing times, and how, as a country, the U.S. is learning to navigate the implications of AI. Leaders in the business world, specifically, are faced with the responsibility of equipping our employees with the skills necessary for paving long-lasting career paths, and the workforce must discover what will be expected as technology continues to disrupt the norm, and work as we know it. As a global business leader, an AI optimist, and a father, I find myself asking: What will make a career sustainable in 2020 and beyond? Will the future of education rise to meet the demands of the future of work?
UNESCO ICT in Education Prize: call for nominations open to projects leveraging AI
The UNESCO King Hamad Bin Isa Al-Khalifa Prize for the use of ICT in education is now accepting candidatures. The theme of the 2019 edition is the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to innovate education, teaching and learning. Artificial Intelligence (AI) and advancements in neuroscience have the potential to enhance teaching methodologies, support lifelong learning and personalize learning through various ways, as well as propel and accelerate the discovery of new delivering modes of education. Keeping in with Sustainable Development Goal 4 on education, UNESCO with its partners is aiming to explore the effective and ethical use of AI applications to reduce barriers to access education and optimize learning processes with a view to improve learning outcomes. In 2019, the Prize will award AI-powered solutions as well as applications of neuroscience in AI aiming to improve learning outcomes, to empower teachers and to enhance the delivery of education services, while advocating for inclusive and equitable use of these technologies in education.
AI university established in Abu Dhabi Global Education Times (GET News)
An AI university has been established in Abu Dhabi, in what is being billed as a world first for artificial intelligence studies. Earlier this month, it was announced that the Mohamed bin Zayed University of Artificial Intelligence (MBZUAI) has been established in Abu Dhabi, the first graduate level, research-based AI university globally. The AI university will enable graduate students, businesses, and governments to advance artificial intelligence. The university's name comes from His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi. MBZUAI intends to introduce a new model of academia and research to the field of AI, with a view to provide students and faculty access to some of the world's most advanced AI systems to unleash its potential for economic and societal development.

As Jobs Are Automated, Will Men and Women Be Affected Equally?
I am writing this article while my baby daughter sleeps. Like all new parents, her dad and I have spent the last few months in a joy-filled, sleepy haze of getting to know her and imagining what her future might look like. This brings a new intensity, and a little more trepidation, to my role advising on the future of work. What will work look like for this generation of young women, especially as more and more of our roles are being automated -- or even replaced -- by artificial intelligence (AI)? And how can leaders ensure that AI does not lead to gender bias in their organizations? Recent research is beginning to answer these questions, and the outlook is mixed: on the one hand, women may be spared from the job disruptions men will face in the longer-term.
Mean-field inference methods for neural networks
Machine learning algorithms relying on deep neural networks recently allowed a great leap forward in artificial intelligence. Despite the popularity of their applications, the efficiency of these algorithms remains largely unexplained from a theoretical point of view. The mathematical description of learning problems involves very large collections of interacting random variables, difficult to handle analytically as well as numerically. This complexity is precisely the object of study of statistical physics. Its mission, originally pointed towards natural systems, is to understand how macroscopic behaviors arise from microscopic laws. Mean-field methods are one type of approximation strategy developed in this view. We review a selection of classical mean-field methods and recent progress relevant for inference in neural networks. In particular, we remind the principles of derivations of high-temperature expansions, the replica method and message passing algorithms, highlighting their equivalences and complementarities. We also provide references for past and current directions of research on neural networks relying on mean-field methods.
