AI benchmark · Coding
What is BigCodeBench?
BigCodeBench evaluates code generation on practical and instruction-rich programming tasks, reporting pass@1 in complete and instruct settings.
Tier A
Widely used: a lab reports it, or 50 or more models are scored on it.
How much stands behind a tier: usage, who backs it, a confirmed line from its own site or paper, and a clear read on X. High with three of the four, medium with two, low otherwise.
- 125 models scored
- in curated RL directories (2 pts)
On X · unclear, low buzz, from 1 post about BigCodeBench in the last month
BigCodeBench appears only incidentally, as one of 20 benchmarks in a model quantization evaluation, with no discussion of its quality.
How we got to tier A
- Adoption: 125 models scored. Tier A.
- On X: unclear, low buzz. “BigCodeBench appears only incidentally, as one of 20 benchmarks in a model quantization evaluation, with no discussion of its quality.” No move.
- In curated RL directories: 2 points, a floor of C.
- Not yet confirmed by a line from its own site or paper.
A clear view on X moves a tier one step up or down; most entries don't move. How tiers work.
Not on the map yet: no line from its own site or paper places it in a domain.
