Detecting Semantic Clones of Unseen Functionality
Konstantinos Kitsios, Francesco Sovrano, Earl T. Barr +1
Semantic code clone detection is the task of detecting whether two snippets of code implement the same functionality (e.g., Sort Array). Recently, many neural models achieved near-…
Is General-Purpose AI Reasoning Sensitive to Data-Induced Cognitive Biases? Dynamic Benchmarking on Typical Software Engineering Dilemmas
Francesco Sovrano, Gabriele Dominici, Rita Sevastjanova +2
Human cognitive biases in software engineering can lead to costly errors. While general-purpose AI (GPAI) systems may help mitigate these biases due to their non-human nature, thei…
Can Global XAI Methods Reveal Injected Behaviours in LLMs? SHAP vs Rule Extraction vs RuleSHAP
Francesco Sovrano
Large language models (LLMs) can amplify misinformation, undermining societal goals such as the UN SDGs. We study three documented drivers of misinformation (valence framing, infor…
Large Language Models for In-File Vulnerability Localization Can Be "Lost in the End"
Francesco Sovrano, Adam Bauer, Alberto Bacchelli
Recent advancements in artificial intelligence have enabled processing of larger inputs, leading everyday software developers to increasingly rely on chat-based large language mode…
