SLMFix is a code‑generation pipeline that uses a small language model fine‑tuned with reinforcement learning to correct syntactic errors in programs produced by large language models for domain‑specific languages. The approach relies on interpreter feedback to guide the error‑fixing process. Experiments show that SLMFix improves validator pass rates by 40% on low‑resource programming languages and removes over 50% of syntactic errors on high‑resource DSLs, outperforming supervised fine‑tuning even for 7B models.

CHAI for LLMs is a framework that improves large language models’ performance on code‑mixed translation tasks by using LLMs as annotators to create preference data, applying reinforcement learning from AI feedback, incorporating LLM‑generated domain knowledge for iterative refinement, and evaluating on real‑world datasets. The approach yields a 68.45% average win rate over state‑of‑the‑art open‑source models in human‑adjudicated tests. It demonstrates a scalable method to enhance code‑mixed language understanding in open‑source LLMs.

Agnostics is a language‑agnostic post‑training pipeline that uses reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) to improve large language models on low‑resource programming languages. By rewriting unit‑test datasets into a language‑independent I/O format, providing a short configuration for compiling and running code, and employing a single verifier that judges code by observable behavior, Agnostics eliminates the need for language‑specific engineering. Applied to Lua, Julia, R, OCaml, and Fortran, it boosts Qwen‑3 4B to rival larger models, scales to diverse families, and achieves new state‑of‑the‑art pass@1 on MultiPL‑E and a new multi‑language LiveCodeBench.

Composition‑RL is an offline data‑augmentation method that composes existing prompts before reinforcement learning to address the pass‑rate‑1 bottleneck in large‑language‑model training. By generating and verifying a composed dataset once from a fixed source pool, it avoids modifying the RL optimizer and improves reasoning performance across models ranging from 4B to 30B. A curriculum variant that gradually increases compositional depth further boosts performance, and the approach also facilitates cross‑domain RL by combining prompts from different domains.
