LLM Benchmarks for Assertion Generation Literature Review
Timeline of works

Goal
- Find out existing benchmarks to evaluation LLMs on assertion generation
- The inputs maybe spec+RTL, RTL only or spec only
- The output is always SystemVerilog assertions
Methodology
- I was able to list a couple of work off the top of my head
| Title | Authors | Affiliation | Venue |
|---|---|---|---|
| AssertionBench | Pulavarthi et al. | UIC , Microsoft | NAACL ‘25 |
| FVEval | Kang et al. | UCB, Nvidia | DATE ‘25 |
| AssertLLM | Fang et al. | HKUST | ICLAD ‘24, ASP-DAC ‘25 |
- I assumed newer benchmarks would have to cite these and older benchmarks would have been cited by these.
Out of these, I consider the following to be closely related to our work
- AssertionBench
- FVEval (RTL2SVA)
- AssertLLM2
The following are works which has assertion generation as a component
- CVDP
- FIXME
