| 2025 | Uncertainty-Aware Contrastive Learning with Hard Negative Sampling for Code Search TasksabstractCode search is a highly required technique for software development. In recent years, the rapid development of transformer-based language models has made it increasingly more popular to adapt a pre-trained language model to a code search task, where contrastive learning is typically adopted to semantically align user queries and codes in an embedding space. Considering that the same semantic meaning can be presented using diverse language styles in user queries and codes, the representation of queries and codes in an embedding space may thus be non-deterministic. To address the above-specified point, this paper proposes an uncertainty-aware contrastive learning approach for code search. Specifically, for both queries and codes, we design an uncertainty learning strategy to produce diverse embeddings by learning to transform the original inputs into Gaussian distributions and then taking a reparameterization trick. We also design a hard negative sampling strategy to construct query-code pairs for improving the effectiveness of uncertainty-aware contrastive learning. The experimental results indicate that our approach outperforms 10 baseline methods on a large code search dataset with six programming languages. The results also show that our strategies of uncertainty learning and hard negative sampling can really help enhance the representation of queries and codes leading to an improvement of the code search performance.
