1. **[LiveCodeBench: Holistic and Contamination Free Evaluation of Large Language Models for Code](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/jain-2024-livecodebench-holistic-contamination-free-evaluation/)** *(2024 · 578 citations)* Widely used code benchmarks such as HumanEval and MBPP have become saturated. They also risk leaking into training data, and they test only one skill: turning a natural-language description into code. LiveCodeBench addresses these problems with a benchmark that keeps growing. It collects fresh problems from weekly…
2. **[LLM-Assisted Code Cleaning For Training Accurate Code Generators](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/jain-2023-llm-assisted-code-cleaning-training/)** *(2023 · 17 citations)* Most work on training code-generating LLMs focuses on collecting more data or on functional correctness. It largely ignores whether the training programs are readable and well structured. Jain et al. ask whether code style itself affects data quality. They build an automatic cleaning pipeline in which an…
