Title: Studying the effects of different input formats on LLMs response
Subject: Software engineering, Computer science
Level: Basic, Advanced
Description:

The aim of this thesis is to experiment if and how different inout formats, JSON, YAML, CSV, XMI, etc. affect LLMs responses. In particular, the student is expected to identify several scenario spanning the software lifecycle, from requirements to code generation and deployment, where LLMs are or can be used (for instacne, reuqirements elicitation, architectural decisions management, etc.) and check how their performance changes with respect to the different input formats. The scenarios need to contain ground truth to compare the output of the LLMs. The workflow should be as automated as possible. The student is expetced to do many experiments.
