Researchers have developed a method for customizing generative AI agents for specialized fields like transportation engineering. By using a curated dataset of U.S. transportation documents, they fine-tuned six large language models (LLMs) with a low-rank adaptation (LoRA) framework. The study found that Qwen2.5-7B and LLaMA-3.1-8B models showed the best performance in understanding technical content and reasoning within the domain, as measured by BLEU-4 and ROUGE scores. This approach offers a reproducible way to create domain-specific AI agents for applications in research, design, planning, and policy. AI
IMPACT This research provides a framework for adapting LLMs to specialized domains, potentially improving AI applications in fields like transportation engineering.
