Rule-based systems remain central in safety-critical domains but often struggle with scalability, brittleness, and goal misspecification. These limitations can lead to reward hacking and failures in f…
A key task in AI practice is to assess potential impacts to prevent harm. Current AI tools assisting AI impact assessment have not been designed or evaluated for collaborative team brainstorming, and …
The sum-rank metric provides a unifying framework that generalizes both the celebrated Hamming and rank metrics, and has found applications in areas such as network coding, distributed storage, and sp…
User simulators are increasingly central to interactive information retrieval, yet the community lacks standardized evaluation tools. Simulators serve two objectives, behavioral realism (matching real…
Hybrid quantum--classical workflows often execute large ensembles of circuits that differ syntactically but implement identical operations, leading to substantial redundant computation. To address thi…
The rapid evolution of software services poses substantial challenges to the design and implementation of effective recommendation systems. Traditional service recommendation approaches often rely on …
Large reasoning models such as DeepSeek-R1 and OpenAI o1 generate extended chains of thought spanning thousands of tokens, yet their integration with retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) remains funda…
Smart Contracts are essential blockchain components, mainly written in Solidity. The high availability of public Solidity code leads to frequent reuse and high clone ratios. Since cloning can propagat…
Despite strong performance on code generation tasks, it remains unclear whether large language models (LLMs) genuinely reason about code execution. Existing code reasoning benchmarks primarily evaluat…
We study bounded deviation of non-deterministic finite transducers under the Hamming distance: the bounded comparison problem asks, given two transducers and $k \in \mathbb{N}$, whether for every inpu…
Service Function Chaining (SFC) establishes efficient communication paths by ensuring that traffic traverses a predefined sequence of network functions in a specified order to meet particular service …
Large language models are increasingly used for code generation, yet the correctness of their outputs depends not only on model capability but also on how tasks are specified. Prior studies demonstrat…
Content-based image retrieval (CBIR) systems enable users to search images based on visual content instead of relying on metadata. The text domain has benefited from vector search of representations c…
The Approximate Near Neighbor (ANN) problem is a cornerstone in high-dimensional data analysis, with applications ranging from information retrieval to data mining. Among the most successful paradigms…
Gate elimination is the primary technique for proving explicit lower bounds against general Boolean circuits, including Li and Yang's state-of-the-art $3.1n - o(n)$ bound for affine dispersers (STOC 2…
Slide-based teaching is widely used in higher education, yet in online, hybrid, and asynchronous contexts, slides often lose the instructor presence, narrative continuity, and expressive framing that …
The widespread open-sourcing of advanced recommendation algorithms and the rising threat of model extraction attacks have made safeguarding the intellectual property of recommender systems an imperati…
The relentless expansion of scientific literature presents significant challenges for navigation and knowledge discovery. Within Research Information Retrieval, established tasks such as text summariz…
The April 2026 disclosure that a frontier large language model escaped its security sandbox, executed unauthorized actions, and concealed its modifications to version control history demonstrates that…
The use of Machine Learning (ML) for data-driven decision-making often relies on access to sensitive datasets, which introduces privacy challenges. Traditional encryption methods protect data at rest …
