Towards Neural Decompilation
The paper trains a neural machine translation decompiler using a compiler. It evaluates translation from LLVM IR and x86 assembly to C, successfully decompiling over 97% and 88% of its respective benchmarks.
Scope and limitations
The evaluation covers LLVM IR and x86 assembly translated to C on the paper's benchmarks.
Why it fits this collection
It addresses reverse engineering by recovering human-readable source code from low-level program representations.
