Programming, Computer engineering

Work description

The goal of this research is to evaluate how Large Language Models (LLMs) can be leveraged to address forecasting challenges in the energy sector, specifically those that can be framed as sequence-to-sequence problems.

The grant holder will explore different strategies on prompt engineering, compare the potential of different LLM’s and create a methodology that can be replicable to multiple challenges for the energy sector.
