Researchers have developed a new method called CTO to enhance code translation by large language models. This approach uses syntax-guided and semantic-aware preference optimization, ensuring both the structural correctness and functional equivalence of translated code. By training a cross-lingual model to directly evaluate the semantic similarity between source and translated code, CTO integrates compiler feedback with preference learning to achieve superior translation performance across multiple programming languages.
