What is the Difference Between Me and You? Benchmarking the Quality Gap Between Human-Written and AI-Generated Code

This work compares human-written and AI-generated code at scale, characterize structural complexity and statistical naturalness, and map static-analysis findings onto Orthogonal Defect Classification for defects and the Common Weakness Enumeration for vulnerabilities, making authors and languages directly comparable.

Reality Is the Final Verifier: On Two Key Gaps in Agentic Software Engineering

Software development follows an implementation-verification loop in which developers or agents iteratively revise an implementation until an evaluator, such as a test suite, accepts it. The evaluator checks the implementation against a set of requirements under a model of the deployment environment. Yet even a formal p...

Class-imbalance remedies for tabular foundation models: historical and supplementary probabilities and experiment records

Version 2.0.0 provides two separate collections of 8,600 persisted probability files each, covering historical and supplementary experiments on the same 43 binary tasks and five seeds. Each NPZ contains validation/test probabilities and aligned binary labels (p_val, p_test, y_val, y_test). No raw feature tables or mode...

PAVR: Personalized Adaptive Virtual Reality for Early Cybersickness Prevention with Minimal Experience Disruption

Cybersickness remains a practical barrier to sustained virtual-reality use because mitigation often begins only after discomfort is reported, while aggressive countermeasures can themselves degrade presence and task performance. This paper presents PAVR, a closed-loop adaptive virtual-reality architecture that reframes...

Sub-Dollar Machine Commerce: A Census-Scale Analysis of Real x402 On-Chain Payments

Autonomous software agents are increasingly transacting over the HTTP 402 (x402) protocol, yet the empirical economics of machine-to-machine commerce remain largely uncharacterized. The prevailing industry narrative assumes a migration toward multi-dollar, compound transactions. To test this, we analyzed a census-scale...
