What is LiveCodeBench Pro?

LiveCodeBench Pro is an advanced evaluation benchmark for large language models for code that uses Elo ratings to rank models based on their performance on coding tasks. It evaluates models on real-world coding problems from programming contests (LeetCode, AtCoder, CodeForces) and provides a relative ranking system where higher Elo scores indicate superior performance.

LiveCodeBench Pro is a text benchmark evaluating models on reasoning, general, and code tasks. LLM Stats tracks 4 models on this benchmark, scored on a 0–3000 scale. The current average is 1910.7, with the leader at 2887.0.

Compare leaders on the best AI for reasoning, best AI for general and best AI for code leaderboards.

LiveCodeBench: Holistic and Contamination Free Evaluation of Large Language Models for Code

Abstract

Large Language Models (LLMs) applied to code-related applications have emerged as a prominent field, attracting significant interest from both academia and industry. However, as new and improved LLMs are developed, existing evaluation benchmarks (e.g., HumanEval, MBPP) are no longer sufficient for assessing their capabilities. In this work, we propose LiveCodeBench, a comprehensive and contamination-free evaluation of LLMs for code, which continuously collects new problems over time from contests across three competition platforms, namely LeetCode, AtCoder, and CodeForces. Notably, our benchmark also focuses on a broader range of code related capabilities, such as self-repair, code execution, and test output prediction, beyond just code generation. Currently, LiveCodeBench hosts four hundred high-quality coding problems that were published between May 2023 and May 2024. We have evaluated 18 base LLMs and 34 instruction-tuned LLMs on LiveCodeBench. We present empirical findings on contamination, holistic performance comparisons, potential overfitting in existing benchmarks as well as individual model comparisons. We will release all prompts and model completions for further community analysis, along with a general toolkit for adding new scenarios and model
