Natural Language Processing for Requirements Formalization: How to Derive New Approaches?

Published in Concurrency, Specification and Programming: Revised Selected Papers from the 29th International Workshop on Concurrency, Specification and Programming (CS&P'21), Berlin, Germany, 2023

We present and discuss principal ideas and state-of-the-art methodologies from the field of NLP in order to guide the readers on how to derive new requirements formalization approaches according to their specific use case and needs. We demonstrate our approaches on two industrial use cases from the automotive and railway domains and show that the use of current pre-trained NLP models requires less effort to adapt to a specific use case.

CarExpert: Leveraging Large Language Models for In-Car Conversational Question Answering

Published in Proceedings of the 2023 Conference on Empirical Methods in Natural Language Processing: Industry Track, 2023

We propose CarExpert, an in-car retrieval-augmented conversational question-answering system leveraging LLMs for different tasks. Specifically, CarExpert employs LLMs to control the input, provide domain-specific documents to the extractive and generative answering components, and controls the output to ensure safe and domain-specific answers.
