Managing Uncertainty in LLM-Generated Procedural Knowledge for Virtual Laboratory Planning 文章

arXiv:2605.26333v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Educational virtual laboratories can make experimental training more scala-ble, adaptive, and accessible, especially when students have limited access to physical laboratory facilities. However, authoring new simulated laboratory procedures remains costly: educators must describe new equipment, define how instruments and materials interact, and specify valid procedural flows that can be executed or assessed inside the virtual environment. Large lan-guage models can assist in this authoring process by generating detailed ex-perimental procedures, but their output should not be treated as directly exe-cutable plans. They may omit necessary actions, arrange steps in the wrong order, or produce instructions that are logically incorrect or incompatible with the laboratory equipment. This paper presents a prototype framework for managing uncertainty in LLM-generated procedural knowledge for virtu-al laboratory planning.
