The readability of source code is a crucial factor on software development and maintenance. Identifier is a essential clue to understand the content of source code, but identifiers are often abbreviated to short form by programmers. Unreason- able abbreviation causes hindrance to understanding for readers faced with unfamiliar code. This paper presents an approach for expanding identifiers using a tool “word2vec.” The word2vec is a tool to learn the vector representations of the words in documents by deep learning. In this approach, the candidates of original identifier by transforming source code to the vector representation of identifiers and comparing short identifiers vector with long one are determined. The process on code of open source software repositories is evaluated and it is indicated that the proposed approach is able to successfully expand many abbreviated identifiers compares favourably with previous works. The present approach suggests some similar meaningful identifiers, of abbreviations can’t expand correctly. Therefore it is concluded that the present approach is helpful for reading source code. |
