We present PanGu-Coder, a pretrained decoder-only language model adopting the PanGu-Alpha architecture for text-to-code generation, i.e. the synthesis of programming language solutions given a natural language problem description. We train PanGu-Coder using a two-stage strategy: the first stage employs Causal Language Modelling (CLM) to pre-train on raw programming language data, while the second stage uses a combination of Causal Language Modelling and Masked Language Modelling (MLM) training objectives that focus on the downstream task of text-to-code generation and train on loosely curated pairs of natural language program definitions and code functions. Finally, we discuss PanGu-Coder-FT, which is fine-tuned on a combination of competitive programming problems and code with continuous integration tests. We evaluate PanGu-Coder with a focus on whether it generates functionally correct programs and demonstrate that it achieves equivalent or better performance than similarly sized models, such as CodeX, while attending a smaller context window and training on less data.

PySAD is an open-source python framework for anomaly detection on streaming data. PySAD serves various state-of-the-art methods for streaming anomaly detection. The framework provides a complete set of tools to design anomaly detection experiments ranging from projectors to probability calibrators. PySAD builds upon popular open-source frameworks such as PyOD and scikit-learn. We enforce software quality by enforcing compliance with PEP8 guidelines, functional testing and using continuous integration. The source code is publicly available on https://github.com/selimfirat/pysad.
