+# PyCoder
+
+This repository contains the baseline model for the paper [Syntax-Aware On-the-Fly Code Completion](https://arxiv.org/abs/2211.04673)
+
+The sample code to run the model can be found in the directory: "`assets/notebooks/inference.ipynb`" in our GitHub: https://github.com/awsm-research/pycoder.
+
+PyCoder is an auto code completion model which leverages a Multi-Task Training technique (MTT) to cooperatively
+learn the code prediction task and the type prediction task. For the type prediction
+task, we propose to leverage the standard Python token
+type information (e.g., String, Number, Name, Keyword),
+which is readily available and lightweight, instead of using
+the AST information which requires source code to be parsable for an extraction, limiting its ability to perform on-the-fly code completion (see Section 2.3 in our paper). 
+
+More information can be found in our paper.
+
+If you use our code or PyCoder, please cite our paper.
