Can Large Language Models Recover Semantic Optimization Opportunities That Compilers Miss?

Optimizing compilers miss profitable transformations when their enabling semantics are absent from the analyzed program representation.

Optimizing compilers miss profitable transformations when their enabling semantics are absent from the analyzed program representation. We ask whether large language models (LLMs) can recover such semantics from heterogeneous C/C++ context and realize them as validated,…
