ORCA: Evaluating LLMs on Data Science Code Translation

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.

Beyond Code Pairs: Dialogue-Based Data Generation for LLM Code Translation

arXiv:2512. 03086v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) have shown remarkable capabilities in code translation, yet their performance deteriorates in low-resource programming domains such as Fortran and emerging frameworks like CUDA, where high-quality parallel data are scarce.

Exploring the Role of LLMs in HPC Programming: A Survey

The survey reviews how Large Language Models (LLMs) are being used in High‑Performance Computing (HPC) programming, covering code generation, parallelization, frameworks, evaluation, and broader challenges. It finds that general‑purpose LLMs perform adequately on serial and OpenMP‑style tasks but struggle with distributed MPI workloads, while domain‑specialized models achieve higher accuracy yet are limited in scope and evaluation. The authors argue that LLMs will not replace HPC experts soon but can act as powerful collaborators, provided richer datasets, integration with performance tools, rigorous evaluation, and governance are developed.
