Abstract: Work zones are critical yet hazardous components of transportation infrastructure, requiring carefully designed Transportation Management Plans (TMPs) to ensure safety and mobility. However, TMP preparation remains labor-intensive and heavily dependent on practitioner expertise. This paper proposes a Large Language Model (LLM)-assisted framework to automate TMP content generation, leveraging the WisDOT WisTMP system as the application context.
摘要:施工区域是交通基础设施中关键但危险的组成部分,需要精心设计的交通管理计划(TMP)以确保安全和通行能力。然而,TMP的编制仍然是劳动密集型的,且高度依赖从业者的专业知识。本文提出了一种大语言模型(LLM)辅助框架,以实现TMP内容生成的自动化,并以威斯康星州交通部的WisTMP系统作为应用背景。
The framework fine-tunes multiple open-source LLMs across different model scales and deploys them locally to ensure data security. To support model training, we construct a domain-specific dataset from historical WisTMP documents by converting PDF files into structured question-answer pairs in JSON format.
该框架对多种不同规模的开源大语言模型进行了微调,并将其部署在本地以确保数据安全。为了支持模型训练,我们通过将PDF文件转换为JSON格式的结构化问答对,从历史WisTMP文档中构建了一个特定领域的数据集。
Experimental results show that fine-tuning significantly improves performance across standard text generation metrics. Further section-wise and strategy-level analyses reveal that, while LLMs achieve strong overall performance, they tend to over-generate strategies and struggle to produce project-specific justifications and accurate cost estimates.
实验结果表明,微调显著提高了模型在各项标准文本生成指标上的表现。进一步的分章节和策略层面的分析显示,尽管大语言模型在整体上表现出色,但它们倾向于过度生成策略,且在提供针对特定项目的理由和准确的成本估算方面存在困难。
In addition, scaling from 7B/8B to 14B yields limited gains. These findings demonstrate the potential of LLMs to improve TMP preparation efficiency while highlighting remaining challenges in LLM-assisted TMP development. The source code and demo videos will be publicly available at this https URL.
此外,将模型规模从7B/8B扩展到14B所带来的收益有限。这些发现展示了大语言模型在提高TMP编制效率方面的潜力,同时也突显了在大语言模型辅助TMP开发过程中尚存的挑战。源代码和演示视频将在该链接公开。
