Language models can formulate conversational responses, but their inference latency — typically measured in seconds — is incurred at exactly the wrong moment: after an interlocutor finishes speaking, when the socially acceptable response gap is shortest. This paper describes a mechanism that relocates that latency. Whi...

This study presents a deterministic, hardware-grounded empirical evaluation of open-weight Small Language Models (SLMs) on CPU-only edge infrastructure.Using greedy decoding for exact reproducibility, we benchmark four ∼8B-parameter families (Llama 3.1, Qwen 2.5, Gemma 2, GLM-4) under identical Q4_K_M quantisation, the...

Cross-language conversation support technology has advanced almost exclusively on the receptive side: translation devices and subtitle glasses help a user understand an interlocutor, but leave the user unaided at the moment of formulating a reply in the interlocutor's language. This paper presents a wearable conversati...

Introduction: As a late-stage dry Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD), Geographic Atrophy (GA) historically, has had few effective therapeutic options, but pegcetacoplan (marketed as Syfovre) was recently approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for this indication in 2023. Pegcetacoplan inhibits C3 compon...

Biomedical knowledge graphs link targets to mechanisms, diseases and phenotypes, but target-centered representations omit much of what distinguishes therapeutic interventions. We introduce a drug-centric knowledge graph, whose identity model, schema and information-selection priorities are organized around the therapeu...

Small language models are increasingly deployed as tool-calling agents in quantized form, yet their reliability has been evaluated almost only in English, although many users in the Arab world write requests in Arabic or mix Arabic and English. The paper (i) audits a public Arabic tool-calling dataset and shows that it...

Introduction Progression through educational milestones and inequality need not change in parallel: group differences may narrow at one transition, widen at another, or shift into differentiated pathways. Methods Using Romanian administrative records, we compared the 1999, 2004, and 2009 birth cohorts across six transi...

We study conformal prediction (CP) for multiple-choice question answering (MCQA) with large language models (LLMs) accessed only through application programming interfaces (APIs), where internal logits and token probabilities are unavailable. Candidate probabilities are often estimated from repeated answer samples, but...

10.3389/fpsyg.2025.1609994 can create and constitute a unique experiential place of variable forms (Falk, 2009), where visitors are encouraged to participate in aesthetic interpretation with their own creative skill. According to an experiential approach, the present research focuses on the challenge that museums face...
