Pruning engine

This invention describes a software tool designed to improve existing computer code. It analyzes parts of the code using natural language processing, comparing them against a library of standard, efficient functions. The tool identifies code sections that either don't match well with these standard functions, or could be replaced by a better, pre-existing library function, making the software more functional.

Why it matters: Filed before large language models (LLMs) became prevalent, the specific NLP techniques claimed here are now significantly enhanced by modern AI. LLMs can perform code analysis, refactoring, and semantic matching with far greater accuracy and nuance than was feasible in 2017.
