GNN-VIEW: Visual Inspection and Explanation of Graph-based Earth-System Models

GNN-VIEW exposes the graph's information pathways, allowing model developers to debug the graph structure before training and after training, GNN-VIEW uses attribution-based explainability to reveal which input features are used by the trained model for a given forecast.

Revisiting Direct Control: A Field Evaluation of Sensor Fusion Efficacy in Teleoperating Full-Scale Autonomous Vehicles via Bird's Eye View

In autonomous driving, robot teleoperation serves as a critical safety fallback mechanism, requiring operators to assume direct control in the event of system failure. While recent research has pivoted toward high-level supervisory control or simulation-based studies, these approaches often fail to capture the physical...

From Language to Drives: A Multimodal Framework for Aligning Autonomous Robots with Human Purposes

This work explores a multimodal approach to the alignment of the behavior of open-ended learning autonomous robots with human purposes through the use of large language models as cultural enablers. While autonomous robots can generate their own skills and goals through interaction with the environment, they often lack...

High-resolution tactile observation makes hidden racket-control mechanisms learnable

Experts can master fine hand-object manipulation skills, yet limited conscious perception of rapid tactile interactions hinders their ability to articulate the underlying control mechanisms. Badminton racket control requires rapid, fine hand-force coordination, providing a demanding testbed for uncovering these mechani...

Omni-InteractScope: Benchmarking Proactive and Agentic Interaction in Continuous Omnimodal Streams

Targeted controls show that tool-invocation scores alone do not establish event grounding and that reminder coverage depends on response history and frequency, and motivate developing and evaluating streaming assistants for timely action, initiative under general user needs, and coverage of entire response sequences.

What Will Replace Pull Requests? Rethinking Software Collaboration for AI Agents

The emergence of artificial intelligence (AI) coding agents has put pull requests under pressure: agents open millions of pull requests per month, while some open-source projects have begun to restrict or disable external contributions. We investigate which alternatives to pull requests practitioners are proposing or a...

Dream to Assist: Intent-Conditioned World Models for Shared Vehicle Control

Assistive agents in shared-control settings face a dual challenge: acting proactively to align with the human's intentions while remaining legible enough for the human to comprehend and fluently respond in real time. We present Dream2Assist, a model-based reinforcement learning framework for tightly-coupled shared deci...

Developer Task Delegation to LLMs and the Trust Factor: A Mixed Methods Study

With the rise of Large Language Models (LLMs), software developers are presented with a powerful new approach: delegating software development tasks to LLMs. Existing studies have explored task delegation for a subset of tasks and factors. Critically, what tasks developers delegate to LLMs, to what extent, and why they...

EEGBiFormer: Real-Time EEG Attention Classification via Hybrid CNN-Transformer with EEG-Informed Auditory Protocol Validation

Sustained attention is critical for academic performance, yet existing auditory support tools are static and not grounded in real-time neural evidence. This paper presents EEGBiFormer, a hybrid CNN-Transformer model for realtime binary classification of attention states, focus versus nonfocus, from 16-channel EEG signa...

A Personalized and Adaptive Intelligent Tutoring System for Psychomotor Learning

Intelligent tutoring systems (ITSs) have advanced learner motivation and personalization in cognitive domains, but extending these gains to psychomotor tasks remains challenging. Existing psychomotor ITSs rely on learner models built before instruction or updated once per module, leaving open how to use real-time asses...

Detection of false positives by human reviewers depends on the face recognition algorithm and its security configuration

Integration of artificial intelligence (AI) technology into identity workflows, such as automated face recognition (FR), has enhanced operational capabilities, with FR algorithms achieving super-human scale and accuracy. However, these gains can make human oversight of FR more difficult, raising questions about the eff...

New Lenses on Learning Design: Course Types and Indicators from Large-Scale Moodle Data

Although learning design (LD) plays a central role in shaping online courses, large-scale empirical evidence on how courses are actually structured remains scarce, and existing analytics work has characterised courses through student engagement with specific learning activities rather than through indicators of the des...

Formally verifying agent-written full-stack web apps with PDD Kit

AI agents can generate code at a scale that’s hard for humans to review line-by-line. PDD Kit helps ensure the code is doing what the developer intended by creating formal specifications and testing against them. It converts developer intent into a Verus specification, proves AI-generated code meets it for every input, and uses tests where proofs aren't practical. Developers review intent, not every line. The post Formally verifying agent-written full-stack web apps with PDD Kit appeared first o…

Q&A: How AI came to model the “messy” human mind

Assistant Professor Benjamin Lindquist studies how engineers deliberately injected randomness into early AI, giving rise to deep-learning models that sometimes hallucinate.
