Static analysis tools have evolved over time to assist in detecting bugs. However, the excessive false warnings can impede developers' productivity and confidence in the tools. Previous research efforts have explored learning-based approaches to identify bug warnings. Nevertheless, their coarse granularity, focusing on either long-term warnings or function-level alerts, is insensitive to individual bugs. Also, they rely on manually crafted features or solely on source code semantics, which is inadequate for effective learning. In this paper, we propose DeepFWI, a learning-based approach that identifies bug-sensitive warnings at a fine-grained granularity. Specifically, we design a novel LSTM-based model that captures multi-modal semantics of source code and warnings from automated static analysis tools (ASATs) and highlights their correlations with cross-attention. To tackle the data scarcity of training and evaluation, we collected a large-scale dataset of 280,273 warnings. We conducted extensive experiments on the dataset to evaluate DeepFWI. The experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach, with an F1-score 67.06% for confirming true warnings in a finer-grained manner, significantly outperforming all baselines. Additionally, to validate the practicality of DeepFWI from the perspective of developers, we applied DeepFWI to four popular open-source projects. Our approach filtered out the vast majority of warnings, while still successfully surfacing 25 true bug-related warnings that were confirmed through manual analysis.

Universal image restoration is a practical and potential computer vision task for real-world applications. The main challenge of this task is handling the different degradation distributions at once. Existing methods mainly utilize task-specific conditions (e.g., prompt) to guide the model to learn different distributions separately, named multi-partite mapping. However, it is not suitable for universal model learning as it ignores the shared information between different tasks. In this work, we propose an advanced selective hourglass mapping strategy based on diffusion model, termed DiffUIR. Two novel considerations make our DiffUIR non-trivial. Firstly, we equip the model with strong condition guidance to obtain accurate generation direction of diffusion model (selective). More importantly, DiffUIR integrates a flexible shared distribution term (SDT) into the diffusion algorithm elegantly and naturally, which gradually maps different distributions into a shared one. In the reverse process, combined with SDT and strong condition guidance, DiffUIR iteratively guides the shared distribution to the task-specific distribution with high image quality (hourglass). Without bells and whistles, by only modifying the mapping strategy, we achieve state-of-the-art performance on five image restoration tasks, 22 benchmarks in the universal setting and zero-shot generalization setting. Surprisingly, by only using a lightweight model (only 0.89M), we could achieve outstanding performance.
