• Abstract: The recent rise in the popularity of large language models has spurred the development of extensive code datasets needed to train them. This has left limited code available for collection and use in the downstream investigation of specific behaviors, or evaluation of large language models without suffering from data contamination. To address this problem, we release The Heap, a large multilingual dataset covering 57 programming languages that has been deduplicated with respect to other open datasets of code, enabling researchers to conduct fair evaluations of large language models without significant data cleaning overhead.

  Despite being trained specifically to follow user instructions, today's instructiontuned language models perform poorly when instructed to produce random outputs. We propose a fine-tuning method that encourages language models to output distributions that are diffuse over valid outcomes.

  We set up a benchmark for languages Croatian, Serbian, Bosnian and Montenegrin. We show that comparable performance to dedicated from-scratch models can be obtained by additionally pretraining available multilingual models. We also show that neighboring languages, in our case Slovenian, can be included in the additional pretraining with little to no loss in the performance of the final model.

  Large language models for code are commonly trained on large unsanitised corpora of source code scraped from the internet. We compare the rate of memorisation with large language models trained on natural language. We find that large language models for code are vulnerable to data extraction attacks, like their natural language counterparts.

  Spelling normalization for low resource languages is a challenging task because the patterns are hard to predict. This work shows a comparison of a neural model and character language models with varying amounts on target language data. Our usage scenario is interactive correction with nearly zero amounts of training examples, improving models as more data is collected.
