• Abstract summary: Domain experts cannot gain a complete understanding of the implementation of a scientific model if they are not familiar with the code. We develop a system for the automated creation and human-assisted curation of scientific models. We present experimental results obtained using a dataset of code and associated text derived from NASA's Hypersonic Aerodynamics website.

• Abstract: Scientific models hold the key to better understanding and predicting the behavior of complex systems. The most comprehensive manifestation of a scientific model, including crucial assumptions and parameters that underpin its usability, is usually embedded in associated source code and documentation, which may employ a variety of (potentially outdated) programming practices and languages. Domain experts cannot gain a complete understanding of the implementation of a scientific model if they are not familiar with the code. Furthermore, rapid research and development iterations make it challenging to keep up with constantly evolving scientific model codebases. To address these challenges, we develop a system for the automated creation and human-assisted curation of a knowledge graph of computable scientific models that analyzes a model's code in the context of any associated inline comments and external documentation. Our system uses knowledge-driven as well as data-driven approaches to identify and extract relevant concepts from code and equations from textual documents to semantically annotate models using domain terminology. These models are converted into executable Python functions and then can further be composed into complex workflows to answer different forms of domain-driven questions. We present experimental results obtained using a dataset of code and associated text derived from NASA's Hypersonic Aerodynamics website.

  We show how large language models can perform scientific synthesis, inference, and explanation. We show that the large language model can augment this "knowledge" by synthesizing from the scientific literature. This approach has the further advantage that the large language model can explain the machine learning system's predictions.

  Grounded-decoding project aims to solve complex, long-horizon tasks in a robotic setting by leveraging the knowledge of both models. We frame this as a problem similar to probabilistic filtering: decode a sequence that both has high probability under the language model and high probability under a set of grounded model objectives. We demonstrate how such grounded models can be obtained across three simulation and real-world domains, and that the proposed decoding strategy is able to solve complex, long-horizon tasks in a robotic setting by leveraging the knowledge of both models.
