ASC Co-Pilots for Code
Page • This project provides funding to evaluate emerging practical large-language model solutions for the ASC and the ND program. Our initial set of tasks/projects includes an evaluation of language models for software engineering and code modernization (particularly for HPC and scientific programming), using language models for knowledge capture and retrieval. Underpinning...
ASC Federated Models
Page • This project aims to develop large foundation models for generative AI capabilities tailored for ND applications across the three NNSA laboratories. By leveraging AI, the project seeks to significantly reduce the lengthy lifecycle times (over a decade) associated with ND modernization. The initiative will create a common framework for sharing...

NVIDIA
Page • NVIDIA FLARE™ (NVIDIA Federated Learning Application Runtime Environment) is a domain-agnostic, open-source, and extensible SDK for Federated Learning. It allows researchers and data scientists to adapt existing ML/DL workflow to a federated paradigm and enables platform developers to build a secure, privacy-preserving offering for a distributed multi-party collaboration.
PARADIGM
Page • This project will investigate how trust in generative models such as Large Language Models (LLMs) and Large Multimodal Models (LMMs) can be enhanced by integrating with a symbolic reasoning engine that embodies SME knowledge. We will explore neurosymbolic methods, neural augmentation (specialization of models) and uncertainty quantification methods to provide...
