Clinical evaluation of novel deep learning‐based auto‐segmentation software: Utility and potential pitfalls

RatoGuide demonstrated favorable performance in typical cases, but accuracy declined in atypical cases with artifacts or altered anatomy, particularly for atypical cases and organs in high-dose gradient regions.

Accuracy of PSI-based hybrid workflow using a temporary intermediate splint versus conventional splint-based maxillary positioning in orthognathic surgery: a retrospective cohort study

The PSI-based hybrid workflow resulted in statistically greater positioning accuracy compared to conventional splint-based fixation, however, the absolute improvements were small, likely of limited clinical relevance, and were not associated with reduced operating times.

Benchmarking the Titans: A Multi-Dimensional Empirical Evaluation of LLM Code Generation Quality in the .NET Ecosystem

An automated, multi-dimensional evaluation framework for C# code generation, applying it to four state-of-the-art LLMs: GPT, Gemini, Claude, and Grok is presented and a substantial gap between correctness and quality attributes is revealed.

Evaluating Inference-Time Defenses against Package Hallucination in LLM-Generated Code

The results recast package hallucination as both a measurement problem and a decoding-time control problem, and they demonstrate that the choice of defense must be matched to the threat model and recommendation utility.

Disagree to Explore, Agree to Commit: Routing-Guided Test-Time Scaling for Software Agents

This work introduces Risa (Routing-Informed Steering and Arbitration): within trajectories, routing encourages diverse exploration and controlled convergence during patch commitment; across separately sampled trajectories, agreement at informative patch positions selects a final candidate.

DPIAgent: Divide, Protocol, Isolate for Agentic Reproduction Test Generation

DPIAgent is proposed, a structured agentic framework built on three principles, Divide, Protocol, Isolate (DPI), that mitigates compound-objective ambiguity and goal drift, and shows that architectural structure and backbone capability are complementary axes rather than substitutes, demonstrating DPI's generalizability...

Neuro-Formal Verification: Agentic Language-Agnostic Formal Program Reasoning

Neuro-formal verification is introduced, which harnesses that automation for developers of mainstream programming languages and returns a Dafny proof of correctness or of a bug on 57% of the entries at 92% precision, and a CBMC counterexample for 63% of the buggy programs at 90% precision.

SweepLSD: A One-Pass, O(width)-Memory Line Segment Detector with an Integer-Only Streaming Core and a Real-Time FPGA Realization

The first complete description of SweepLSD is given, a line segment detector that reads the image exactly once and emits each segment within a few rows of its last pixel passing the scan line, with the tightest frame-time distribution and the best per-segment direction accuracy of the four detectors.

The Intelligibility-Based Repeat-Recall Test: I. Bayesian-Guided Estimation of Multiple Speech Reception Thresholds.

The ezSRT test is capable of producing reliable SRT estimates in 6 min that are sensitive to different experimental conditions and listener groups and that result in different SiN performance levels when later tested in a fixed SNR configuration, and using the ezSRT test as part of the new i-RRT protocol to determine S...

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…
