An Autonomy Aware Metamodel for Human AI Collaboration in Software Engineering

This work provides a conceptual foundation for governance-aware, adaptable, and AI-first software engineering methods by proposing a metamodel that treats autonomy not as a fixed property of an actor, but as a derived, situation-dependent authority assignment determined by task, context, and collaboration pattern.

Echo Chambers and Information Brokers on Truth Social: A Study of Network Dynamics and Political Discourse

This study examines the structural dynamics of Truth Social, a politically aligned social media platform, during two major political events: the U.S. Supreme Court's overturning of Roe v. Wade and the FBI's search of Mar-a-Lago. Using a large-scale dataset of user interactions based on re-truths (platform-native repost...

Fine-Tuning Large Language Models for Codebook-Guided Coding of Students'Mathematics Metaphor Responses

Student-generated metaphors about mathematics can provide insights into students'attitudes, beliefs, identities, and experiences, but expert human assessment through thematic coding of these semantically complex metaphor responses is labor-intensive and difficult to scale. This study examines whether Low-Rank Adaptatio...

Digital Reading Materials and Religious Practice: Usage in Personal Study and Religious Education Courses

Religion is an important part of many people's lives, with reading from religious texts being among the most common and important regular practices. Modern technology has changed the way this religious reading takes place, but the interaction of technology with religious reading has not been studied in detail. In this...

Enhancing Presence, Deepening Fan Intensity: How Presence in Immersive Video Shapes Psychological Closeness to Performers

Immersive video differs from conventional flat 2D video in that it is experienced as 180-degree stereoscopic video on a head-mounted display, thereby eliciting bodily and spatial subjective experience. Previous studies have shown that viewing and interpersonal distance affect Presence; however, it remains insufficientl...

A Robot Among People:From Social Imitation to the Social Becoming of Human Groups

This work understands robots in public spaces not in terms of autonomy or intelligence, but as a relational capacity, which implies designing robots not in the authors' image or for their utility, but grounded in their needs in being and becoming together.

KAD-Net: Kinematics-Aware Decoupled Learning for Robust 3D Hand Pose Estimation from a Single Depth Image

A Kinematics-Aware Decoupled Learning Network for robust 3D hand pose estimation and a task-decoupled hierarchical multitask framework, which separates 2D joint localization from depth estimation and incorporates a dedicated multitask learning strategy for depth regression.

Context-Aware Causal Gaze Forecasting for Human-Vehicle Interaction During In-Cabin Tracking Dropouts

The Causal Context-Gated Forecaster (CCGF), which encodes a 60-frame pre-dropout history of gaze and head pose and combines it with DINOv3 scene features and evaluates two scene conditions: Live, in which the scene representation continues to update during tracker loss, and Frozen, in which the final pre-dropout repres...

From Review to Reuse: How Post-Task Workflow Can Support Human-AI Agent Interaction

This work investigated post-task workflows: editable, graph-based representations of an agent's completed execution that improve their understanding and error detection over a prompt-only condition, and found that validation succeeded mainly when users cross-checked across multiple evidence sources.

Middleware for Feed Recommendation in Practice: How Feed Creators Build, Maintain, and Sustain Custom Feeds on Bluesky

Scholars have long proposed third-party middleware as an alternative to centralized algorithmic feeds: feeds built and distributed by independent feed creators. This vision saw no large-scale instantiation until Bluesky, a decentralized microblogging platform, introduced custom feeds in 2023. Although central to the mi...

NeuroClick: Preserving Surgeon Autonomy through Hands-Free Earable Tooth-Click Control in Neurosurgery

This work introduces earables as a direct, hands-free control platform for neurosurgery using tooth-click input and develops a real-time recognition pipeline whose classifier achieved a median macro F1-score of 98.6% under leave-one-subject-out cross-validation.

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…

Q&A: How AI came to model the “messy” human mind

Assistant Professor Benjamin Lindquist studies how engineers deliberately injected randomness into early AI, giving rise to deep-learning models that sometimes hallucinate.
