Input-output example encoding

Abstract

Generally discussed herein are devices, systems, and methods for encoding input-output examples. A method of generating a program using an encoding of input-output examples, may include processing an input example of the input-output examples, using a first long short term memory (LSTM) neural network, one character at a time to produce an input feature vector, processing an output example associated with the input example in the input-output examples, using the LSTM neural network, one character at a time to produce an output feature vector, determining (a) a cross-correlation between the input feature vector and the output feature vector or (b) previously computed feature vectors for a different input-output example that are sufficiently close to the input feature vector and the output feature vector, respectively, and using the determined cross-correlation or previously computed vector, generating a program consistent with the input example and the output example.
