Outline

This paper proposes Adaptive Criticism Refinement (ACR), a novel method for code generation using large-scale language models (LLMs). This method overcomes the limitations of existing supervised model distillation methods. It improves performance by iteratively improving self-generated code. ACR utilizes LLMs as judges and critics to assess code quality and improves the model itself through critical feedback on low-quality code. The RefineCoder series developed through this approach achieves comparable or superior performance to existing models on various code generation benchmarks with less data.

Takeaways, Limitations

Takeaways:
A Novel Approach to Improving the Performance of LLM-Based Code Generation Models (ACR)
Reduce reliance on teacher model distillation and increase data efficiency.
Confirming the possibility of continuous performance improvement through iterative improvement of self-generated code.
Presenting effective evaluation and improvement strategies using LLMs as judges and critics.
Limitations:
The effectiveness of ACR may depend on the performance of LLM.
The effectiveness of ACR may vary depending on the performance of LLM-as-a-Judge and LLM-as-a-Critic.
Further research is needed to determine the generalizability of the proposed method.
Since only results for a specific code generation benchmark are presented, generalization to other domains or tasks is needed.
