Abstract

Examples herein relate to polarization diversity optical interface assemblies including a single mode optical fiber and first and second grating couplers disposed on a substrate. The first and second grating couplers are coupled to first and second waveguides, respectively. The assemblies further includes an optical connector to couple light between the single mode optical fiber and each of the first and second grating couplers. The optical connector includes a ferrule and a walk-off crystal. The ferrule is coupled to a portion of the single mode optical fiber. The walk-off crystal is configured to spatially separate the light into first and second orthogonal polarization modes prior to passing through the respective first and second grating couplers and/or combine the first and second polarization modes of the light prior to passing through the single mode optical fiber.

Large language models for transportation research: Methodologies, state of the art, and future opportunities

The rapid rise of large language models (LLMs) is transforming transportation research, with significant advancements emerging between 2023 and 2025, a period marked by the inception and swift growth of adopting and adapting LLMs for various transportation applications. Despite these significant advancements, however, a systematic review and synthesis of the existing literature remains lacking. This paper aims to fill this gap by providing a comprehensive review of the methodologies and applications of LLMs in transportation. We explore key applications, including autonomous driving, travel behavior prediction, and general transportation-related queries, alongside LLM methodologies such as zero- or few-shot learning, prompt engineering, and fine-tuning. From the review, critical research gaps are identified. From the methodological perspective, many of the research limitations can be addressed by integrating LLMs with existing tools and refining LLM architectures. From the application perspective, research opportunities for LLMs to address various transportation challenges are also explored. By synthesizing these findings, this review not only presents the state-of-the-art LLM adoption and adaptation in transportation, but also proposes future research directions as well as insights and recommendations for policymakers and practitioners, paving the way for greater LLM-driven research innovations in transportation in the future.
