Abstract

Recent events have presented Medical Practitioners with concerns about safety and privacy implications associated with GE’s VScan MIot Ultrasound Device. Concerns relate to the devices potential risk to broadcast location data that can pose serious risks to device users and patients. This report was commission in collaboration with Augusta University to determine if device concerns pose real threat to operators and patients. In effort to ensure all potential threat vectors are targeted, the initial step was to analyze the supply chain. Here the devices are CT scanned to look for any hardware anomalies that could present threat vectors to users of these devices. (See SRNL-STI-2024-00225 for detailed analysis). No anomalies were found associated with the hardware utilized within the GE VScan Air.

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.
