Abstract
A deep learning model trained to learn to predict source code is tuned for a target source code generation task through reinforcement learning using a reward score that considers the quality of the source code predicted during the tuning process. The reward score is adjusted to consider code-quality factors and source code metrics. The code-quality factors account for the predicted source code having syntactic correctness, successful compilation, successful execution, successful invocation, readability, functional correctness, and coverage. The source code metrics generate a score based on how close the predicted source code is to a ground truth code.
