The paper investigates whether code large language models (CodeLLMs) inadvertently reproduce proprietary or sensitive code by evaluating seven state‑of‑the‑art training data detection (TDD) methods on eight CodeLLMs. It introduces CodeSnitch, a benchmark of 9,000 function‑level code samples across three languages, each labeled as included or excluded from training data, and applies mutation strategies based on the Type‑1 to Type‑4 code clone taxonomy to test TDD robustness. The study offers a systematic assessment of current TDD techniques for code and suggests directions for developing more effective detection methods.

The paper introduces MIMIC, a framework that uses executable code to generate rigorous reasoning data for large language models (LLMs). By converting algorithms into verifiable reasoning trajectories through narrative fusion, code-guided test synthesis, and dynamic code instrumentation, MIMIC creates a Code-Instrumented Reward (CIR) that supplies dense, high‑fidelity supervision for reinforcement learning. Models trained with MIMIC’s synthetic dataset show significant, consistent improvements in general reasoning, complex mathematics, and fine‑grained deterministic tasks.

ORCA is a new benchmark for evaluating large language models on Data Science Code Translation (DSCT), comprising two settings: ORCA-MAIN with 1,600 grounding-level tasks across data querying, manipulation, and deep learning, and ORCA-PROJECT with 200 full-project translation tasks across seven data‑science task types. Each task includes reference translations and test cases to verify functional equivalence, and a multi‑stage quality verification process ensures task correctness. Experiments show that even state‑of‑the‑art LLMs perform poorly on DSCT, with Claude‑Opus‑4.6 achieving only 56.92% success on ORCA‑MAIN and 33.67% on ORCA‑PROJECT, while an intent‑augmented approach improves success rates by 4.80% and 5.33% respectively.
