Execution-based evaluation of code in 10+ languages

This repository contains code to perform execution-based multi-lingual evaluation of code generation capabilities and the corresponding data, namely, a multi-lingual benchmark MBXP, multi-lingual MathQA and multi-lingual HumanEval. Results and findings can be found in the paper "Multi-lingual Evaluation of Code Generation Models" (https://arxiv.org/abs/2210.14868).

Paper summary

Our paper describes the language conversion framework, the synthetic solution generation, and many other types of evaluation beyond the traditional function completion evaluation such as translation, code insertion, summarization, and robustness evaluation.

Paper summary

Language conversion of execution-based function completion datasets

Below we demonstrate the language conversion (component A above) for the conversion from Python to Java (abridged example for brevity).

Example conversion to Java

Installation

Check out and install this repository:

git clone https://github.com/amazon-science/mxeval.git
pip install -e mxeval

Dependencies

We provide scripts to help set up programming language dependencies that are used to execute and evaluate using datasets in MBXP.

Amazon Linux AMI

bash language_setup/amazon_linux_ami.sh

Ubuntu

bash language_setup/ubuntu.sh

Usage

This program exists to run untrusted model-generated code. Users are strongly encouraged not to do so outside of a robust security sandbox. See the comment in execution.py for more information and instructions.

Each sample is formatted into a single line:

{"task_id": "Corresponding task ID", "completion": "Completion only without the prompt",
"language": "programming language name"}

We provide data/mbxp/examples/mbxp_samples.jsonl to illustrate the format.

Here is nearly functional example code (you just have to provide generate_one_completion to make it work) that saves generated completions to samples.jsonl.

from mxeval.data import write_jsonl, read_problems

problems = read_problems()

num_samples_per_task = 200
samples = [
    dict(task_id=task_id, language=problems[task_id]["language"], completion=generate_one_completion(problems[task_id]["prompt"]))
    for task_id in problems
    for _ in range(num_samples_per_task)
]
write_jsonl("samples.jsonl", samples)

To evaluate the samples for, e.g., Java MBJP evaluation, run

evaluate_functional_correctness data/mbxp/examples/mbjp_samples.jsonl --problem_file data/mbxp/mbjp_release_v1.jsonl

or to run all languages

for lang in mbcpp mbcsp mbgp mbjp mbjsp mbkp mbphp mbplp mbpp mbrbp mbscp mbswp mbtsp;
  do evaluate_functional_correctness --problem_file data/mbxp/${lang}_release_v1.jsonl data/mbxp/examples/${lang}_samples.jsonl;
done

You can check the programming-language dependency installation by running the above example for each MBXP dataset. You should obtain the following results for the mbxp_samples.jsonl files provided:

Dataset pass@1
MBCPP 79.60%
MBCSP 63.63%
MBGP 39.19%
MBJP 85.30%
MBJSP 78.67%
MBKP 63.77%
MBPHP 72.77%
MBPLP 38.41%
MBPP 82.24%
MBRBP 58.90%
MBSCP 42.96%
MBSWP 29.40%
MBTSP 87.29%

Note: Because there is no unbiased way of estimating pass@k when there are fewer samples than k, the script does not evaluate pass@k for these cases. To evaluate with other k values, pass --k <comma-separated-values-here>. For other options, see

$ evaluate_functional_correctness --help

However, we recommend that you use the default values for the rest.

Example usage with non-default values

evaluate_functional_correctness  data/mbxp/samples/mbjp_samples.jsonl --problem_file data/mbxp/mbjp_release_v1.jsonl --n_workers 63 --k 1,5,10,100

Known Issues

While evaluation uses very little memory, you might see the following error message when the system is running out of RAM. Since this may cause some correct programs to fail, we recommend that you free some memory and try again.

malloc: can't allocate region

Some system might require longer compilation timeout. If you see that the execution fails due to compilation timeout reason, this number should be increased accordingly.

Canonical solutions release

We have released canonical solutions for certain popular langauges (v1.2). The detailed numbers of the solutions for each langauge are listed below.

Dataset # solutions # problems
MBCPP 773 848
MBCSP 725 968
MBJP 874 966
MBJSP 938 966
MBKP 796 966
MBPHP 950 966
MBPP 960 974
MBRBP 784 966
MBTSP 967 968

Future release

We plan to release synthetic canonical solutions as well as processed datasets for other evaluation tasks such as code-insertion, code-translation, etc.

Credits

We adapted OpenAI's human-eval package (https://github.com/openai/human-eval) for the multi-lingual case. We thank OpenAI for their pioneering effort in this field including the release of the original HumanEval dataset, which we convert to the multi-lingual versions. We also thank Google for their release of the original MBPP Python dataset (https://github.com/google-research/google-research/tree/master/mbpp), which we adapt and convert to other programming languages.
