# SWE-Llama

SWE-Llama are variants of the [CodeLlama](https://arxiv.org/abs/2308.12950) model fine-tuned on software engineering tasks extracted from real-world GitHub issues and pull requests. They were introduced and evaluated on the SWE-bench benchmark in this [paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2310.06770).

## Model Details

- **Architecture:** Transformer, based on [CodeLlama](https://arxiv.org/abs/2308.12950) architecture 
- **Parameters:** 7 billion for SWE-Llama-7b, 13 billion for SWE-Llama-13b
- **Objective:** Generating patches to resolve GitHub issues, conditioned on issue description and code context

## Training Data

SWE-Llama was fine-tuned on 19,000 issues and pull requests collected from 37 popular Python code repositories on GitHub, disjoint from those used in SWE-bench.

## Training Procedure

- Fine-tuned only the attention matrices using LoRA method
- Trained for 4 epochs with a batch size of 32
- Selected best checkpoint based on validation perplexity

## Evaluation Results

When evaluated on the SWE-bench benchmark:

- SWE-Llama-7b achieved 3.0% issue resolution rate using oracle context retrieval
- SWE-Llama-13b achieved 4.0% issue resolution rate using oracle context retrieval
