Abstract
A computer-implemented method, system and computer program product for representing source code in vector space. The source code is parsed into an abstract syntax tree, which is then traversed to produce a sequence of tokens. Token embeddings may then be constructed for a subset of the sequence of tokens, which are inputted into an encoder artificial neural network ('encoder') for encoding the token embeddings. A decoder artificial neural network ('decoder') is initialized with a final internal cell state of the encoder. The decoder is run the same number of steps as the encoding performed by the encoder. After running the decoder and completing the training of the decoder to learn the inputted token embeddings, the final internal cell state of the encoder is used as the code representation vector which may be used to detect errors in the source code.
