It is suggested that while they may be able to approximate rank-orderings of human attractiveness, current off-the-shelf commercial MLLMs systematically overrate the beauty of human faces.

A privacy firewall pipeline based on a U-Net encoder-decoder, trained entirely on synthetic data, that removes speech from ambient audio while preserving environmental sounds indicative of daily activities is presented.
This Perspective argues that AI-mediated BCIs should be evaluated not only by decoding accuracy and task performance, but also by how AI assistance is deployed: when systems act autonomously, seek confirmation, preserve user effort or return control to the user.
This study presents BuildOcc, an open-source Python platform that grounds large language model agents in the ATUS, a nationally representative diary dataset covering 16,684 respondents, and provides the building energy community with a reusable, openly available implementation of the occupant behavioral layer.

A contextual engineering framework that generates eco-feedback using a self-consistency with chain-of-thought prompt, leveraging household energy analysis data, utility rate structures, and household characteristic information contributes to realizing the next level of context-aware interactions between occupants and b...

By aligning EEG with layer-wise neural visibility rather than fixed high-level semantics, the proposed framework improves both retrieval accuracy and image reconstruction in EEG-based visual decoding.
Collaborative Brain-Computer Interfaces (cBCIs) offer a promising mechanism to augment team decision-making, but existing approaches rely exclusively on evidence available only after a decision has been made and reported, such as reaction time or stated confidence. This limits their use to explaining or discounting a d...

Mastering musical performance requires precise multisensory coordination, yet learners encounter a kinesthetic mismatch, which is a discrepancy between the internal perception of an action and the actual physiological state of the body. While multisensory Body Transformation Experiences (BTE) provide tools to bridge th...

While breathing is essential to living and for sound production in some instruments, for pianists, it is often a hidden and automatic process, making it difficult to analyze or refine. A critical gap exists between data and awareness: while sensors record precise physical metrics, they fail to capture the performer's s...

This work introduces PROS (Proactive Refinement Of Scientific Posters), which separates epistemic initiative from behavioral authority: the system can surface source-grounded candidate problems, while users decide which become repair goals and whether resulting changes are committed.

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…
