According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "Ideation phase of research life cycle is challenging for researchers. The present disclosure provides a system and method for ideation of research proposal using a large language models (LLM) agent-based architecture. Ideation process is emulated using the LLM agent-based architecture having a colleague persona and mentor personas to execute a motivation validation and method synthesis. The motivation validation and the method synthesis engage users in an interactive manner to develop a research proposal document. The research proposal document comprises a validated motivation and a set of plausible solutions addressing a research problem based on a plurality of tasks performed by agents of the LLM agent-based architecture. The present disclosure alleviates hallucinations of LLMs, addresses unanswerability, and ensure relevant outcomes using two-stage aspect based retrieval where first stage introduces higher recall reducing False Negatives and correcting False Positives and second stage provides more precise fine-grained aspect based retrieval."
