PaperCoder is a multi-agent LLM system that transforms a machine learning research paper into a functional code repository. It follows a three-stage pipeline:
1. Planning – Breaks down the paper’s methodology.
2. Analysis – Extracts key algorithms and logic.
3. Code Generation – Produces executable implementations.
This system outperforms existing baselines on Paper2Code and PaperBench, delivering high-quality, faithful code.

You Should Know:
How to Use Paper2Code for ML Research
1. Install Required Dependencies
To run PaperCoder, ensure you have Python and Git installed:
sudo apt update && sudo apt install -y python3 git For Linux git clone https://github.com/going-doer/Paper2Code.git cd Paper2Code pip install -r requirements.txt
2. Run Paper2Code on a Research Paper
python paper2code.py --paper_path "path/to/paper.pdf" --output_dir "generated_code"
3. Verify Generated Code
Check the output repository structure:
ls -R generated_code/
4. Execute the Generated Code
Run the generated scripts to test functionality:
cd generated_code python main.py Or the entry point specified
5. Debug & Improve (If Needed)
Use debugging tools like `pdb` or logging:
import pdb; pdb.set_trace() Insert breakpoint
What Undercode Say:
Paper2Code bridges the gap between ML research and implementation, reducing manual coding efforts. However, always validate generated code for correctness.
🔹 Linux Commands for ML Workflow:
nvidia-smi Check GPU usage htop Monitor system resources tmux new -s paper2code Persistent terminal session
🔹 Windows Equivalent (PowerShell):
Get-WmiObject Win32_Processor | Select LoadPercentage CPU usage nvidia-smi If NVIDIA GPU present
🔹 Git Commands for Code Management:
git log --oneline Check commit history git diff View changes git stash Temporarily save uncommitted changes
🔹 Python Debugging:
import logging logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG)
🔹 Docker for Reproducibility:
docker build -t paper2code . docker run -it paper2code
Expected Output:
A fully generated code repository from an ML research paper, ready for execution and further development.
