DOI: 10.1007/978-3-642-36089-3_12
Original shorter version of A Survey of Grammatical Inference in Software Engineering (SLE 2012 SI)
T4G: AI-for-SLE
- The paper surveys grammar inference (learning grammars from data), which is an AI/ML-style technique applied to SLE tasks.
T3A: Meta-languages
- The inferred artefacts are grammars/language definitions, i.e., meta-language objects central to software language engineering.
T5B: Language Description Analysis
- It is concerned with recovering/analysing language descriptions (grammars) from programs, traces, or other artefacts.
