Program Comment Generation Through Distributed Representation Construction Using Parse Tree Information

Comments in the source code of a program are important for understanding that program. Understanding the logical flow and the overall procedure of programs is especially important as the next step for beginners learning the grammar of programming languages, and it is inferred that appropriate comments on the source code can support it. In this study, automatic generation of comments by neural networks that learned distributed representation from the parse tree information of the source code is proposed.
