Code-Related Task Benchmark

• CodeXGLUE - A benchmark dataset and open challenge for code intelligence. It includes 14 datasets for 10 diversified code intelligence tasks covering the following scenarios: 1) code-code (clone detection, defect detection, cloze test, code completion, code repair, and code-to-code translation); 2) text-code (natural language code search, text-to-code generation); 3) code-text (code summarization); 4) text-text (documentation translation).
• Project CodeNet, The goal of Project CodeNet is to provide the AI-for-Code research community with a large scale, diverse, and high quality curated dataset to drive innovation in AI techniques. Project CodeNet is a large scale dataset with approximately 14 million code samples, each of which is an intended solution to one of 4000 coding problems. Project CodeNet aims to do for AI for Code what ImageNet did for computer vision.

Library-Oriented Code Generation

• PyCodeGPT, from paper CERT: Continual Pre-Training on Sketches for Library-Oriented Code Generation . Providing two benchmark: PandasEval and NumpyEval.

Bug Localization

• EMSE Bug Location Data Set, from paper "Using Bug Descriptions to Reformulate Queries during Text-Retrieval-based Bug Localization" by Oscar Chaparro, Juan Manuel Florez, Andrian Marcus.
• DeepLocalize, DeepLocalize: Fault Localization for Deep Neural Networks. This repo includes a bechmark.
• TSSB-3M, mining tool and large-scale datasets of single statement bug fixes in Python.
  • Paper: TSSB-3M: Mining single statement bugs at massive scale
  • TSSB-3M: A dataset of over 3 million isolated single statement bug fixes. Each bug fix is related to a commit in a public Python that does not change more than a single statement.
  • SSB-9M: A dataset of over 9 million single statement bug fixes. Each fix modifies at least a single statement to fix a bug. However, the related code changes might incorporate changes to other files.
  • SSC-28M: A dataset of over 28 million general single statement changes. We are releasing this dataset with the intention to faciliate research in software evolution. Therefore, a code change might not necessarily relate to a bug fix.

API Misuse

• MUBench, MUBench (pronounced "Moo Bench") is an automated benchmark for API-misuse detectors, based on the MUBench benchmarking dataset. If you encounter any problems using MUBench, please report them to us. If you have any questions, please contact Sven Amann.

This repository contains the data and code to replicate our ICLR 2020 paper on models of source code that combine global and structural information, including the Graph-Sandwich model family and the GREAT (Graph-Relational Embedding Attention Transformer) model.

Programming-Language Understanding and Repair

• PLUR, PLUR (Programming-Language Understanding and Repair) is a collection of source code datasets suitable for graph-based machine learning. We provide scripts for downloading, processing, and loading the datasets. This is done by offering a unified API and data structures for all datasets.

API Recommendation

• BIKER, The dataset and source code for paper "API Method Recommendation without Worrying About the Task-API Knowledge Gap", ASE, Paper, including about 400 API retrieval tasks from Stack Overflow.
