KernelBench-X: A Comprehensive Benchmark for Evaluating LLM-Generated GPU Kernels

arXiv CS.LG

ArXi:2605.04956v1 Announce Type: new LLM-based Triton kernel generation has attracted significant interest, yet a fundamental empirical question remains unanswered: where does this capability break down, and why? We present KernelBench-X, a benchmark designed to answer this question through category-aware evaluation of correctness and hardware efficiency across 176 tasks in 15 categories. Our systematic comparison of five representative methods yields three main findings. First, task structure determines correctness than method design.
