State of Deep Learning for Code Generation (DL4Code)
Machine learning models can now write decent code. Here are a list of key papers and models that address this task.
There have been a set of recent interesting results that apply large language models (e.g., GPT-3) to code generation (a.k.a program synthesis, program generation). The results so far have been competitive and some models have been integrated into developer productivity tools such as GitHub Copilot - an AI pair programming tool that supports programmers live as they write code (hint: it works quite well).
This post seeks to curate a running list of interesting papers, associated models and datasets that have been used to address this task.
Papers and Model Architectures
Several papers and models have been published.
