Filenames are a concise means of conveying information about source code to fellow developers. One such convention is util. Commonly understood to stand for "utility", filenames with the letters util …
Decompositional jailbreaks pose a critical threat to large language models (LLMs) by allowing adversaries to fragment a malicious objective into a sequence of individually benign queries that collecti…
Pretrial risk assessment tools are used on over one million U.S. defendants each year, yet their use for predicting rare violent re-offense faces a basic statistical barrier. We derive a universal pre…
Data discovery - retrieving relevant tables from a data lake in response to user queries - is a fundamental building block for downstream analytics. In practice, data discovery must support different …
Large language models (LLMs) have recently been adopted for recommendation by framing user preference modeling as a language generation problem. However, existing latent reasoning approaches typically…
Financial misconceptions carry direct economic costs, from panic selling to equity market avoidance, yet they are notoriously resistant to correction. Traditional financial literacy interventions are …
Developers are increasingly overwhelmed by AI-generated issue reports that lack actionability and reproducibility, eroding trust in automated bug detection tools. In this paper, we present IssueSpecte…
As blockchain ecosystems grow, financially motivated attackers increasingly exploit decentralized finance (DeFi) protocols, causing frequent and severe losses. Unlike conventional cyberattacks, DeFi e…
Governments increasingly deploy AI in public services, making transparency essential for accountability and public trust. Australia's Standard for AI Transparency Statements (AITS) requires government…
Source code and its accompanying comments are complementary yet naturally aligned modalities-code encodes structural logic while comments capture developer intent. However, existing vulnerability dete…
Enterprise software engineering is shifting away from deterministic CRUD/REST architectures toward AI-native systems where large language models act as cognitive orchestrators. This transition introdu…
Artificial intelligence systems are increasingly integrated into writing processes, challenging traditional notions of authorship, responsibility, and intellectual contribution. Current disclosure pra…
Agent Skills package SKILL.md files, scripts, reference documents, and repository context into reusable capability units, turning pre-load auditing from single-prompt filtering into cross-file securit…
A decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) is a governing entity that empowers its stakeholders (i.e., users who hold one or more of its tokens) to manage blockchain-based protocols (i.e., smart co…
Multi-behavior recommendation aims to predict user conversions by modeling various interaction types that carry distinct intent signals. Recently, generative sequence modeling methods have emerged as …
Accurate vulnerability-inducing commit identification serves as a foundation for a series of software security tasks, such as vulnerability detection and affected version analysis. A straightforward s…
Large (vision-)language models exhibit remarkable capability but remain highly susceptible to jailbreaking. Existing safety training approaches aim to have the model learn a refusal boundary between s…
Sequential recommendation seeks to model the evolution of user interests by capturing temporal user intent and item-level transition patterns. Transformer-based recommenders demonstrate a strong capac…
Improving the effectiveness of human-robot interaction requires social robots to accurately infer human goals through robust intention understanding. This challenge is particularly critical in multimo…
Software documentation frequently becomes outdated or fails to exist entirely, yet developers need focused views of their codebase to understand complex systems. While automated reverse engineering to…
