Not All Explanations Are Sought: Information-Seeking Psychology for Human-Centered XAI

This position paper argues that human-centered explainable AI (HCXAI) should incorporate insights from the psychology of information seeking. Drawing on Sharot and Sunstein's framework of information-seeking motives, we propose that people evaluate whether to engage with explanations based on three types of expected ut...

Trustworthy RAG: An Evaluation Agent for Detecting Misinformation and Knowledge Poisoning in Generative AI Systems

An Evaluation Agent, middleware that combines Natural Language Inference factual verification, a five-signal poison detector with relevance-weighted aggregation, and a Trust Index is proposed, which reliably blocks instruction injection of unsafe advice while contradiction and subtle semantic weakening remain hard.

Towards an Automated Test of LLM Security Knowledge

A partially-automated method for assessing LLM knowledge of a security area using authoritative information from Consumer Protection Agencies to identify instability in LLM responses that can be indicative of knowledge gaps is introduced.

From Chasing Ghosts to Missed Attacks: Perspectives and Perceptions of SOC Practitioners on LLM Integration, Risks, and Readiness

This work contributes an empirical, practitioner-driven analysis of LLM use across SOC roles and organizations and derives concrete design and integration requirements for human-centered, operationally safe LLM-assisted security operations.

Poetic Heritage for Culturally Grounded Emotional Support: An Interaction Design Framework and Its Multimodal Agentic Instantiation

The work shows how generative AI can mediate engagement with poetic heritage in culturally grounded emotional-support interactions and suggests that culturally grounded content and structured guidance should anchor system design, while multimodal presentation may strengthen resonance and engagement.

ProphDR: An Interpretable Deep Learning Model for Predicting Cancer Drug Response via Multi-Omics and Cross-Attention Mechanisms

ProphDR is an interpretable deep learning framework that integrates multiomics data and drug structural information using a hierarchical attention mechanism, and generates biologically interpretable attention maps that highlight key pharmacophores and resistance-related genes consistent with established mechanisms in N...

CodeAssay: A Multi-Metric Benchmark with Audited Ground Truth for LLM Code Generation

These findings show that reliable evaluation of LLM-generated code requires validated ground truth, protected tests, and multiple explicitly interpreted measures, and that CodeAssay provides a reproducible basis for evidence-based model evaluation in AI-augmented software development.

Unified heterogeneity-aware benchmark of drug synergy prediction: a cross-study analysis of traditional machine learning and graph deep learning models.

The first comprehensive benchmarking framework specifically designed to accommodate inter-dataset heterogeneity is presented, finding that well-designed small datasets can match or even surpass the performance of larger benchmarks, suggesting that different metrics are applicable to different datasets/testing scenarios...

An Explicit Interaction-Prompted Diffusion Framework for High-Fidelity 3D Molecular Generation.

Current structure-based drug design generative models often struggle to faithfully recapitulate genuine ligand-protein binding interactions. Instead, under the coupling of implicit learning architectures and biased training data, they tend to learn spurious statistical correlations. To address this, we propose EIP-Diff...

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.
