Notes on Swum.NET

Swum’s rule system maps a ProgramElementNode (abstract) to a PhraseNode (abstract) based on the logic of the Rule and the context from the ProgramElementNode..

Swum.NET already has ProgramElementNodes for:

  • Method declarations: MethodDeclarationNode

    • toString(): “{Action} | {Theme} {Arguments}”
      • action is the verb of the method
      • theme is the “target” (noun phrase) of the action
      • arguments are modifiers of the action or noun phrase (adverbs or adjectives?)

  • Fields within a class: FieldDeclarationNode

    • Field is an attribute of the class (variable of the class)

  • Arguments to a method: ArgumentNode

  • Types: TypeNode

  • Variable names: VariableDeclarationNode

  • Genres of methods via accessor methods of MethodDeclarationNode

    • reactive methods (event handler, callback, etc): isReactive()
    • constructor: isConstructor()
    • destructor: isDestructor()

Maybe use a template system to map s_units into sentences

original: cheeseburger = new Hamburger(cheese);
SWUM:     cheeseburger(noun), hamburger(noun) cheese(modifier)
Mapped:   A cheeseburger is a hamburger with cheese.

Challenge: when to apply which rule?

  • Apply all the rules to all the relevant ProgramElementNode
  • There should be a confidence score on each mapping
  • Collect the mappings with highest confidence scores
  • I have a bad feeling the Viterbi algorithm will be involved somehow
