Patent number: 12242822Abstract: Custom source code generation models are generated by tuning a pre-trained deep learning model by freezing the model parameters and optimizing a prefix. The tuning process is distributed across a user space and a model space where the embedding and output layers are performed in the user space and the execution of the model is performed in a model space that is isolated from the user space. The tuning process updates the embeddings of the prefix across the separate execution spaces in a manner that preserves the privacy of the data used in the tuning process.Type: GrantFiled: March 13, 2024Date of Patent: March 4, 2025Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLC.Inventors: Colin Bruce Clement, Neelakantan Sundaresan, Alexey Svyatkovskiy, Michele Tufano, Andrei Zlotchevski
