| Challenge: | Recent code completion models focus on local file contexts, but do not fully capture the complexities of real-world software development. |
| Approach: | They propose a version-specific code-completion task across eight libraries as they evolve over the years and an in-depth analysis of two widely used public libraries: PyTorch and Matplotlib. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model improves performance with public libraries, compared with existing models. |

| Challenge: | Existing studies show that causal language models lack expressiveness due to poor discrimination ability. |
| Approach: | They propose a contrastive learning framework that enhances discrimination of representations and bridges the gap with encoder-only models. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework improves discrimination and source code generation capabilities on a variety of downstream tasks. |
