| [🏠 Project Page](https://tiger-ai-lab.github.io/VisCoder) | [📖 Paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2506.03930) | [💻 GitHub](https://github.com/TIGER-AI-Lab/VisCoder) | [🤗 VisCode-200K](https://huggingface.co/datasets/TIGER-Lab/VisCode-200K) | [🤗 VisCoder-3B](https://huggingface.co/TIGER-Lab/VisCoder-3B) |
|
|
| **VisCoder-7B** is a large language model fine-tuned for **Python visualization code generation and multi-turn self-correction**. It is trained on **VisCode-200K**, a large-scale instruction-tuning dataset that integrates validated executable code, natural language instructions, and revision supervision from execution feedback. |

|
|
| ## 🧠 Model Description |
|
|
| **VisCoder-7B** is trained on **VisCode-200K**, a large-scale instruction-tuning dataset tailored for executable Python visualization tasks. It addresses a core challenge in data analysis: generating Python code that not only executes successfully but also produces **semantically meaningful plots** by aligning **natural language instructions**, **data structures**, and **visual outputs**. |
|
|
| We propose a **self-debug evaluation protocol** that simulates real-world developer workflows. In this setting, models are allowed to revise previously failed generations over multiple rounds with guidance from **execution feedback**. |
|
|
| ## 📊 Main Results on PandasPlotBench |
|
|
| We evaluate VisCoder-7B on [**PandasPlotBench**](https://github.com/TIGER-AI-Lab/VisCoder/tree/main/eval), which tests executable visualization code generation across three major libraries. Our benchmark covers both standard generation and **multi-round self-debugging**. |
|
|
|  |
|
|
| > VisCoder-7B achieves over **90% execution pass rate** on both **Matplotlib** and **Seaborn** under the self-debug setting, outperforming open-source baselines and approaching GPT-4o performance. |
