- This federal Project Grant award of $432,656 from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program supports collaborative research to better align how artificial intelligence (AI) language models and humans process language. The primary goal is to understand why AI models, such as ChatGPT, do not process language in the same way as humans, particularly around handling temporary semantic ambiguity. The researchers will benchmark the AI models...
The University of Massachusetts (UMass) was awarded a $999,967 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) federal grant program. The 3-year award, effective September 1, 2025, aims to develop techniques that integrate imperfect artificial intelligence (AI) models with human-in-the-loop feedback to enable high-throughput, high-precision scientific measurements with quantified uncertainty from large-scale datasets. The project will focus on four high-impact applications in environmental science and sensing, leveraging data from satellite imagery, radar, acoustics, and sonar. By systematically evaluating the approach in real-world settings, the project seeks to help expand scientists' ability to use AI responsibly and effectively for discovery and decision-making in areas such as environmental monitoring and disaster response. The project will also support interdisciplinary training for Ph.D. students and undergraduate researchers through course integration and community workshops.
