GPTCloneBench: A comprehensive benchmark of semantic clones and cross-language clones using GPT-3 model and SemanticCloneBench

Understand

With the emergence of Machine Learning, there has been a surge in leveraging its capabilities for problem-solving across various domains.

• In the code clone realm, the identification of type-4 or semantic clones has emerged as a crucial yet challenging task.
• Researchers aim to utilize Machine Learning to tackle this challenge, often relying on the BigCloneBench dataset.
• However, it's worth noting that BigCloneBench, originally not designed for semantic clone detection, presents several limitations that hinder its suitability as a comprehensive training dataset for this specific purpose.
