Abstract: Pre-fix matching may constrain the generation of next token predictions. Input text to perform a next token prediction may be received. Multiple tokens may be determined from the input text, including a partial token. From possible tokens, one or more matching possible tokens with the partial token may be identified. Next token predictions may then be filtered using the identified possible tokens in order to ensure that the partial token is matched.

Abstract: Code completion suggestions may be proactively obtained and validated. An event that triggers obtaining a code completion suggestion for inclusion in a code file being edited using an integrated development environment may be detected. The code completion suggestion may be obtained. The characters of the code completion suggestion may be compared with characters added to the code file after the detection of the event that triggered obtaining the code completion suggestion to determine whether the code completion suggestion is valid. A valid code completion suggestion may then be displayed.

Abstract: Random token segmentation may be implemented for next token prediction. Text data may be received for training a machine learning model to predict a next token given input text tokens. Multiple tokens may be determined from the text data. Different ones of the multiple token may be randomly segmented in to sub-tokens. The machine learning model may then be trained using the multiple tokens including the respective sub-tokens as a training data set.
