2025-06-24: GPU Hours Granted on Hypothesis Generation by Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facility
In collaboration with Oak Ridge National Laboratory, the LAMP-SYS Lab was granted 20,000 node hours on the Frontier supercomputer cluster and 2500 node hours on the Andes supercomputer cluster. This joint proposal is a collaboration with Dr. Tirthankar Ghosal , a scientist at the Advanced AI Methods at Scale (AAIMS) group in the National Center for Computational Sciences , Oak Ridge National Laboratory , my student Dominik Soós , and me. The goal of this proposal is to investigate the feasibility of generating hypotheses through interactions between expert LLMs and then ranking hypothesis candidates by Z-scores , a novelty metric developed by Dr. Uzzi . The project will advance hypothesis generation by improving the hypothesis novelty in the candidate generation phase and the candidate selection phase. The introduction of Z-scores provides a more scalable way to automatically evaluate novelty. The multi-agent LLMs will have the potential to mitigate the consistent mi...
