TL;DR

Valg aims to probabilistically monitor most unique traces—sequences of spec-related events like method calls—and monitor fewer redundant ones and has plenty of room to improve, but only two of 11 RL algorithms that are feasible for RV during continuous integration are feasible.

Reinforcement Learning for Code Optimization

This work makes execution time learnable through three stages: how code is tested, by building DMC-Optim with large optimization tests and a calibrated sandbox; how speed is turned into reward, by composing correctness and speed in the RL environment and using an offline simulator to predict the most promising configur...

CovR: Coverage-Aware Hardware Verification via Reasoning-Guided Reinforcement Learning

CovR is presented, an agentic framework for automated testbench generation that combines self-reflection loops with simulation-based feedback to maximize coverage and a reinforcement learning (RL) framework tailored for coverage-driven testbench generation, leveraging tool-derived rewards from simulation and coverage f...

RLPF: Reinforcement Learning from Performance Feedback for Code Generation

This work proposes RLPF, reinforcement learning from performance feedback, which turns execution outcomes into a staged reward, and suggests that code agents can be trained not only to pass tests, but also to optimize the programs they write.

Validation Evidence in LLM Repair Agents: How Much of What Passes Actually Tests the Bug?

When a repair agent runs a test and sees it pass, the result is treated as evidence about the reported defect. We measure how often that treatment is warranted. BSG-VA (buggy-state/candidate-state/gold-fix validation analysis) captures each validation command at its exact working-tree state, extracts a test-only patch,...

Goanna: a novel approach for automated type error debugging

Goanna is introduced, a novel type checker for Haskell that focuses on improving error diagnostics, and shows performance constraints when diagnosing large programs containing complex errors, but remains responsive enough to provide real-time debugging assistance for small to medium-sized programs.
