这篇论文提出了一个可扩展的框架,用GitHub Issues来测试LLM智能体找论文代码的复现问题,比现有手动基准好很多,值得看。
ReproRepo是一个可扩展的框架,利用GitHub Issues作为监督信号来评估LLM在可重复性审计中的能力。研究基于1149篇近期机器学习论文,测试了四种前沿智能体配置。最佳配置Codex with GPT-5.5能识别约90%论文的至少一个语义相关的真实可重复性问题。分析表明智能体擅长发现表面故障和语义区域,但精确定位仍不足。代码已开源。
ReproRepo: Scaling Reproducibility Audits with GitHub Repository Issues
Reproducing research results from papers and released code is central to scientific progress. Existing works have introduced benchmarks to evaluate whether LLM agents can assist with reproducibility, but they are difficult to scale due to their reliance on substantial manual effort for data curation and evaluation. We introduce ReproRepo, a scalable framework for reproducibility evaluation that leverages human-raised GitHub issues as naturally occurring supervision on realistic reproduction blockers. We instantiate ReproRepo on 1,149 recent machine learning papers from major conferences and evaluate four frontier model-agent configurations. Our results show that LLM agents, even without executing code, can identify many real-world reproducibility problems from paper-repository pairs: the best agent in our study, namely Codex with GPT-5.5, surfaces at least one semantically related human-reported blocker for ~90% of papers in the study. Further analysis shows that agents are particularly effective for surfacing visible failures and identifying the right semantic region, but may still be insufficient in exact localization. ReproRepo can serve as a reusable, scalable framework for future evaluations of LLM agents on real-world reproducibility auditing. Our code is released at https://github.com/LithiumDA/ReproRepo.
