Abstract
Embodiments are directed to translating a natural language query into a code snippet in a programing language that semantically represents the query. The embodiments include a cascading neural network that includes an encoder network and a classifier network. The encoder network being faster but less accurate than the classifier network. The encoder network is trained using a contrastive learning framework to identify code candidates from a large set of code snippets. The classifier network is trained using a binary classifier to identify the code snippet that semantically represents the query from the code candidates.
