TalkPipe Writing Assistant

SAND2025-14316O TalkPipe Writing Assistant offers AI assistance, providing help on a point-by-point basis. Authors can start with their own ideas—whether bullet points, partial paragraphs, or phrases—and specify the document type, desired tone, audience, and any other relevant context. As they write, the assistant provides tailored suggestions for each paragraph. They can request high-level concepts, draft a paragraph, or proofread existing text. The large language model (LLM) considers both preceding and following paragraphs to ensure coherence and flow.

CTGAN-TVAE

SAND2026-18914O CTGAN-TVAE (Conditional Tabular Generative Adversarial Networks-Tabular Variational Autoencoders) generates extensive sets of variable generation data through a hybrid framework. It enhances latent space representation by combining TVAE's robust feature-embedding with CTGAN's ability to condition categorical variables such as time. CTGAN-TVAE employs a fully connected neural network within a conditional generative adversarial network framework to manage continuous and categorical data effectively, capturing complex feature interactions without needing sequential modeling. This was developed as part of NNSA-MSIPP: Minority Serving Institution Partnership Program, Grant Number DE-NA0004016.
