Instead of reconstructing the underlying numbers, a model should judge relationships directly from the image, much as people do on exam questions. The authors built a synthetic corpus of five chart kinds: line, dot-line, vertical bar, horizontal bar… 2. **[GitChameleon 2.0: Evaluating AI Code Generation Against Python Library Version Incompatibilities](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/misra-2026-gitchameleon-2-0-evaluating-ai/)** *(2026 · 2 citations)* Code-generating LLMs are often asked to write code for a fixed, sometimes older, library release. Existing benchmarks mostly test migration to newer or unseen versions, or score outputs by string matching. GitChameleon 2.0 targets version-conditioned generation (VCG), where the model must write correct code for a… ## Co-authors here 6 co-authors with a page, the most papers together first. - [Adam Atkinson](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/adam-atkinson/) - [Adam Trischler](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/adam-trischler/) - [Akos Kadar](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/akos-kadar/) - [Antonio Orvieto](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/antonio-orvieto/) - [Yoshua Bengio](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/yoshua-bengio/) - [Zihan Wang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/zihan-wang/) ## Venues Where their works here were published, the most works first, with the editions of those that have a page. - [Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics (ACL)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/acl/): [ACL 2026](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/acl/2026/) ## Cited by Papers of our library cite their works 119 times (of the 149,439 papers whose bibliographies we read); [46 citing papers with a page here →](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/samira-ebrahimi-kahou/cited-by/).
