Abstract

The original operating procedure was nearly 20 years old, though it was on a semi-annual review schedule. Some electrical categories had changed, as well as their risk management assessments. The IWD did not reflect these updated guidelines. No injuries have been reported during nearly 20 years of operation (not a bad record), however, several abnormal conditions came to surface during our Hazard Analysis conversations. One of which included an oil based capacitor malfunction which cracked it’s housing and leaked oil within the 2001 system. Our training and qualifications were updated to reflect LANL’s current standards.

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.
