Core Concepts
Large Language Models can effectively support human engineers in specifying safety requirements for Autonomous Driving functions.
Abstract
The content discusses the use of Large Language Models (LLMs) to automate the process of refining and decomposing safety requirements for Autonomous Driving (AD) functions. The study proposes a prototype pipeline that utilizes prompts and LLMs to generate safety requirements, review requirement datasets, and identify redundant or contradictory requirements. The methodology involves iterative design cycles focusing on identifying limitations, task breakdown, prompt engineering, and real-world evaluation by experts. The results show promising capabilities of LLMs in automating safety requirement specifications for AD functions.
