Beyond the Townhall: Spatial Anchoring and LLM Agents for Scalable Participatory Urban Planning

A conceptualization of LLMs as dialogue partners complementing a shared information baseline, causal evidence that this baseline shapes those conversations, an account of how citizens use and judge factual versus reflective agent roles, and a method for cities to test information packages and agent configurations befor...

Demonstrably Informed Consent in Privacy Policy Flows: Evidence from a Randomized Experiment

Privacy policies govern how personal data is collected, used, and shared. Yet, in most privacy-policy consent flows, agreement is operationalized as a single click at the end of a long, opaque policy document. Recent privacy-law scholarship has argued for a standard of demonstrably informed consent. That is, the party...

Smartphone Vibrometric Force Estimation for Grip Related Strength Measurements

Hand grip strength is a widely used clinical biomarker linked to mobility, frailty, surgical outcomes, and overall health. This work explores a novel, phone only approach for estimating grip related force using a smartphone's built in vibration motor and inertial measurement unit. When the phone vibrates, applied finge...

ResumeShield: Channel Separation and an Open Benchmark for Indirect Prompt Injection in AI Resume Screening

An AI resume screener reads a document supplied by the person it is evaluating, inverting the usual trust relationship between an assessor and the material it assesses. Candidates exploit this by concealing instructions inside a resume using white text, zero font size, hidden elements, markup comments, document metadat...

Utilizing AI-Driven Project Management Tools for Optimized Talent Management in HRM: A Framework for Enhanced Resource Allocation and Performance Prediction

A total of 40 managers participated in a simulation via user testing to ascertain if HR costs would reduce and work productivity would rise, the results were quite clear, attrition rates had dipped alongside risk and resource management rates, and TalentOptima was a clear winner.

Affective Shared Autonomy: Temporal Affect Dynamics and Subjective Evaluation in Bimanual Teleoperation Tasks

Physical teleoperation integrates human cognitive flexibility with robotic precision, yet demanding manipulation tasks frequently induce severe cognitive workload, acute frustration, and execution breakdown. Conventional shared autonomy paradigms rely primarily on task-based rules, such as spatial error boundaries, whi...

OHRID-Retail: An Open Multimodal Dataset of Human Activity in Retail Environments

Open datasets describing human behavior in environments shared with mobile robots remain limited, particularly for retail activities that combine locomotion, reaching, object handling, and robot guided movement. This paper introduces OHRID Retail, an open, human centered multimodal dataset collected from 16 healthy adu...

Digital Twins Need Feedback

Digital twins are too often described as realistic simulations, anatomical avatars, dashboards, or data mirrors. Those artifacts can be useful, but they miss the defining property of a digital twin: bidirectional feedback between a physical counterpart and a virtual counterpart. The physical system continuously updates...

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.
