| Challenge: | Existing models for pre-training are not convenient for users to find and set them up. |
| Approach: | They propose to extend ProphetNet into other domains and languages by pre-training models . they pre-train a cross-lingual generation model ProphetNet-Multi and a Chinese generation model . |
| Outcome: | The proposed models achieve new state-of-the-art on 10 benchmarks. |
Enhancing Code Generation Performance of Smaller Models by Distilling the Reasoning Ability of LLMs (2024.lrec-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Large Language Models (LLMs) have made significant advances in code generation through the ‘Chain-of-Thought’ prompting technique. |
| Approach: | They propose a framework which aims to transfer LLMs’ reasoning capabilities to smaller models through distillation. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework improves the smaller model's code generation performance by over 130% on the APPS benchmark. |

| Challenge: | Existing code pre-training approaches often adopt (masked) language modeling as the training objective which targets on learning to predict (macked) tokens in a given code context. |
| Approach: | They propose a code-text contrastive learning model which learns function-level code semantic representations through large-scale code corpus. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model achieves new state-of-the-art with significant improvement over existing pre-trained models on eleven domain/language-specific code search tasks with six programming languages in different code granularity. |
