arXiv:2605. 17965v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Bug localization remains a key bottleneck for large language model (LLM)-based software maintenance, where accurately identifying faulty code is essential for debugging, root cause analysis, triage, and automated program repair (APR).

SpIDER is a dense retrieval method that combines LLM reasoning with graph-based exploration of codebases to locate relevant functions, classes, or files for user queries. It introduces a graph-structured benchmark, SpIDER-Bench, covering multiple programming languages and demonstrates significant recall improvements over traditional BM25 and dense approaches. The method’s graph-based candidate expansion provides auditable structural reasons for each retrieved item while keeping the retrieval budget fixed.
