Psychological Factors Influencing University Students Trust in AI-Based Learning Assistants

A psychology-oriented perspective is adopted to examine how university students form trust in AI-based learning assistants and proposes a conceptual framework that organizes psychological predictors of trust into four groups: cognitive appraisal, affective reactions, social-relational factors, and contextual moderators...

HAGI++: Head-Assisted Gaze Imputation and Generation

HAGI++ is presented, a multi-modal diffusion-based imputation method that, for the first time, leverages integrated head-orientation sensors to exploit the natural correlation between head and eye movements and enables more complete, accurate eye-gaze recordings in real-world contexts, enhancing gaze-based analysis and...

Reliability-Gated Fusion of Consumer Head and Foot IMUs for Lower-Body 3D Pose

The channel-gated model is the most accurate of the authors' learned fusion arms on clean data and its gates suppress the natively biased foot-orientation channels on clean real data without test-time supervision and flag dropout bursts at 0.92-0.999 AUROC.

Reclaiming the social in social media

This work argues that the harms commonly attributed to social media arise not from technologies supporting social connection but from their implementation within the attention economy, and proposes an architecture that does, making the attention economy not just discouraged but structurally impossible.

Making the Invisible Visible: A Framework for Reflective AI Use in Software Engineering Education

Generative AI (GenAI) is increasingly embedded in software engineering education, supporting activities such as requirements development, design exploration, documentation, and prototyping. However, educators often have visibility only into final artefacts, with limited insight into how students evaluate, verify, and r...

One Sensor, Whole Body - 3D Body Pose from a Single Consumer Earbud IMU

A multimodal capture pipeline is built that records four-view RGB-D video together with an AirPods head IMU and two Striv insole IMUs, synchronize the streams post-hoc, and generate pseudo-ground-truth with SAM 3D Body, yielding a 35-take single-subject benchmark spanning gait, turning, vertical, everyday, and clinical...

You Can't Spot a Deepfake?And Neither Can Your Brain Nor Eyes: A Neurophysiological Framework for Deepfake Exploitation of Cognitive Engagement and Implicit Visual Evaluation

DECEIVE (Deepfake Exploitation of Cognitive Engagement and Implicit Visual Evaluation), a framework that models how deepfake videos are validated as adversarial payloads through behavioral and neuro-physiological screening of viewers, and how attacks can be refined by selecting payloads that evade detection.

WSM-Aware HRI: An IoT-Enhanced Framework for Early Detection and Norm-Guided Repair of Failures with LLM Guidance

WSM-Aware HRI is proposed, an IoT-enhanced modular framework that unifies diverse HRI breakdowns as World-State Mismatches (WSMs) between a human's instruction-implied assumptions and a robot's grounded world model built from multimodal perception and digital augmentation.

CG-Diff: Organizing Code Changes Around Call Graphs

Tools for code review present code changes file-by-file. We argue that, oftentimes, changes can be better organized around a call graph of the changed code. From an empirical study of GitHub pull requests (PRs) in-the-wild, we find that (1) in around 40% of the PRs, more than half of the changed functions (and methods)...

Anatomy of a Spreadsheet Failure, Analysing the EuSpRIG Horror Story Corpus

Spreadsheet disasters have been documented for more than thirty years, but they have not gone away. This paper examines the EuSpRIG horror stories archive as evidence of how ordinary spreadsheets fail and the consequences that follow. After cleaning and deduplication, 121 incidents from 1995 to 2026 were classified int...

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.
