Improving HPC Code Generation Capability Of Llms Via Online Reinforcement Learning With Real-machine Benchmark Rewards

Abstract

Large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated strong code generation capabilities, yet the runtime performance of generated code is not guaranteed, and there have been few attempts to train LLMs using runtime performance as a reward in the HPC domain. We propose an online reinforcement learning approach that executes LLM-generated code on a supercomputer and directly feeds back the measured runti
