Software development is a sociotechnical and human-centered endeavor in which human factors directly influence quality, productivity, and innovation capacity. In this context, career development in co…
We study the problem of computing a competitive equilibrium with approximately optimal bundles in Fisher markets with separable piecewise-linear concave (SPLC) utility functions, meaning that every bu…
Formal models for concurrent and distributed systems describe machines; the people who operate them are either ignored or treated as external environment. Yet key distributed systems -- notably grassr…
Early childhood educators work in settings characterized by heavy regulation, emotional labor, staffing instability, and low pay. Although these conditions are well documented in survey-based research…
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…
Modern retrieval pipelines increasingly serve downstream consumers like retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) and autonomous agents that need more than a scalar relevance score. A reranker that only te…
Dense vector retrieval is the practical backbone of Retrieval- Augmented Generation (RAG), but similarity search can suffer from precision limitations. Conversely, utility-based approaches leveraging …
Large language models (LLMs) have recently shown strong potential for generating project-level unit tests. However, existing state-of-the-art approaches primarily rely on execution-path information to…
Research methods constitute an indispensable tool for scholars engaged in scientific inquiry. Investigating how scholars use research methods throughout their careers can reveal distinct patterns in m…
In modern scientific collaboration networks, certain researchers play a pivotal role in bridging scholars who have never worked together - a phenomenon we term academic "match-makers." Despite their p…
Programming is about automation in a wide variety of domains. Developing itself is one of those. As a side-effect, progress in automated coding may make people less willing to learn computer programmi…
Social isolation among older adults has become a critical concern, as reduced opportunities for conversation and weakened family relationships negatively affect mental health. This study proposes a di…
This study presents a large-scale network dataset, NIH-MPINet, curated from NIH RePORTER and PubMed, characterizing collaboration among multiple Principal Investigators (multi-PIs) on NIH R01-equivale…
Covert wireless communication aims to establish a reliable link while hiding the transmission from an adversary. In wireless settings, uncertainty plays a central role in this tradeoff: it can help ma…
The polygenic risk scores (PRS) have emerged as an important methodology for quantifying genetic predisposition to complex traits and clinical disease. Significant progress has been made in applying P…
In gender-restrictive and surveilled contexts, where access to formal education may be restricted for women, pursuing education involves safety and privacy risks. When women are excluded from schools …
Lung cancer clinical decision support demands precise reasoning across complex, multi-stage oncological workflows. Existing multimodal large language models (MLLMs) fail to handle guideline-constraine…
Existing approaches to microservice dependency simulation--record-replay, pattern-mining, and specification-driven stubs--generate static artifacts before test execution. These artifacts can only repr…
We present Encapsulated Substitution and Agentic Refinement on a Live Scaffold for Safe C-to-Rust Translation, a two-phase pipeline for translating real-world C projects to safe Rust. Existing approac…
Internet technologies have expanded higher education students' access to learning resources, peer guidance, and skill-development opportunities beyond formal curricula. Yet the ways students assemble …
