Abstract
A deep learning model is pre-trained with a large-scale of unsupervised data of code review tasks in order to learn the relationships between code changes and a code review. The pre-trained deep learning model predicts a code review given a code diff hunk in a code diff format. The code diff hunk includes the changed code and its surrounding context. The pre-trained deep learning model may then be fine-tuned with supervised data in order to make predictions for several code review activities, such as, code change quality estimation and code refinement.
