Latest Patents

Hicks is associated with 1 patent: “Core Agent for Generation of Legacy Infrastructure Modernization Intelligence Models.” The invention describes a system for training language models to describe, analyze, support, or generate code for legacy systems and technologies.

The system gathers information from legacy-system repositories, logging systems, and databases. It can also add listeners to user interfaces to capture events, related function calls, and other events occurring at approximately the same time. The collected material is organized into training chunks according to its content type, then filtered by legacy system, programming language, or hardware to create a training set for a corresponding data model. The language model’s embedding layer generates vector embeddings that support retrieval-augmented generation.

Career Highlights

Hicks is associated with American International Group, Inc. His patent reflects an application of language-model training and retrieval techniques to the practical challenge of working with legacy infrastructure.

Collaborations

The provided information identifies Surya Vorganti and Radhakrishnan Ramachandran as Hicks’s coworkers. Their inclusion offers context about his professional connections, though no specific roles in the patent are stated.

Conclusion

Kevin Ben Hicks’s patent focuses on organizing information from legacy systems into useful training data, with the goal of enabling language models to assist with analysis, support, and code generation.
