Job Description The National University of Singapore invites applications for the position of Research Associate in the Department of Computer Science, School of Computing. Recent developments on automated code generation from large language models (LLMs) provide us with a fresh perspective in this regard. Since LLM based code generation allows for programming from natural language specification – it seems to indicate a promise to achieve the goal of auto-coding or auto-correcting (e.g. VulRepair to automatically correct vulnerabilities). This raises not only the overall question of correctness of automatically generated code, but at what point we can start trusting automatically generated code. This will be the main overarching theme of the proposed project. Requirements • Master's Degree with 2 years of relevant work experience or Ph.D. candidates with at least 2 years experience as full-time candidate in Computer Science • Experience in research. Only shortlisted candidates will be notified.
