Austin et al. (2021) — ARXIV-2108.07732
Key takeaways
- MBPP: around a thousand short Python problems, crowd-sourced, each with a natural-language description and three test cases — deliberately basic, which is the point of the name and the reason it discriminates at a different part of the capability range than HumanEval
- Also introduces a Python-rewritten MathQA split, less used
- Correctness is measured by executing the tests, so a pass is a pass on three
cases rather than a proof — the same bound HumanEval carries, and the reason
SOTA-210’spass@kestimator exists
Standing in the anthology
Carries no practice, deliberately — ADR-032.
Filed as the other half of a pair the record already half-held: LIT-388 is
HumanEval, filed in the benchmark unit, and ten documents here report MBPP
beside it. A code result quoted on one and not the other is a narrower claim
than it looks, and until now the record could name only one of them.
Unread — no NOTE.
