"Len or index or count, anything but v1": Predicting Variable Names in Decompilation Output with Transfer Learning

Binary reverse engineering is an arduous and tedious task performed by skilled and expensive human analysts. Information about the source code is irrevocably lost in the compilation process. While modern decompilers attempt to generate C-style source code from a binary, they cannot recover lost vari...
