Anomaly detection in smart power grids with graph-regularized MS-SVDD: a multimodal subspace learning approach

Anomaly detection in smart power grids is a critical challenge due to the complexity, heterogeneity, and dynamic nature of sensor data streams. Existing one-class classification methods, particularly Subspace Support Vector Data Description (SVDD), have been extended to multimodal scenarios but often fail to fully exploit the structural dependencies across modalities, limiting their robustness in real-world applications. In this paper, we address this gap by proposing a generalized Multimodal Subspace Support Vector Data Description (MS-SVDD) model with graph-embedded regularization. The method projects data from multiple modalities into a shared low-dimensional subspace while preserving modality-specific structure through Laplacian regularizers. Our approach is evaluated on a three-modality dataset derived from smart grid event time series, using a dedicated preprocessing pipeline for constructing one-class classification training samples. The results demonstrate that our graph-embedded MS-SVDD improves robustness of event detection compared to conventional approaches, highlighting the potential of integrating graph priors with multimodal subspace learning for advancing anomaly detection in critical infrastructure. More broadly, this work contributes to the wider field of AI by illustrating how relational and structural information can be systematically embedded into one-class models, enabling robust learning under complex, high-dimensional, and multimodal conditions.

ECCOLA - a Method for Implementing Ethically Aligned AI Systems

Various recent Artificial Intelligence (AI) system failures, some of which have made the global headlines, have highlighted issues in these systems. These failures have resulted in calls for more ethical AI systems that better take into account their effects on various stakeholders. However, implementing AI ethics into practice is still an on-going challenge. High-level guidelines for doing so exist, devised by governments and private organizations alike, but lack practicality for developers. To address this issue, in this paper, we present a method for implementing AI ethics. The method, ECCOLA, has been iteratively developed using a cyclical action design research approach. The method aims at making the high-level AI ethics principles more practical, making it possible for developers to more easily implement them in practice.

AI-powered Code Review with LLMs: Early Results

In this paper, we present a novel approach to improving software quality and efficiency through a Large Language Model (LLM)-based model designed to review code and identify potential issues. Our proposed LLM-based AI agent model is trained on large code repositories. This training includes code reviews, bug reports, and documentation of best practices. It aims to detect code smells, identify potential bugs, provide suggestions for improvement, and optimize the code. Unlike traditional static code analysis tools, our LLM-based AI agent has the ability to predict future potential risks in the code. This supports a dual goal of improving code quality and enhancing developer education by encouraging a deeper understanding of best practices and efficient coding techniques. Furthermore, we explore the model's effectiveness in suggesting improvements that significantly reduce post-release bugs and enhance code review processes, as evidenced by an analysis of developer sentiment toward LLM feedback. For future work, we aim to assess the accuracy and efficiency of LLM-generated documentation updates in comparison to manual methods. This will involve an empirical study focusing on manually conducted code reviews to identify code smells and bugs, alongside an evaluation of best practice documentation, augmented by insights from developer discussions and code reviews. Our goal is to not only refine the accuracy of our LLM-based tool but also to underscore its potential in streamlining the software development lifecycle through proactive code improvement and education.
