SWMM5 Modelling of Staggered Flume with Internal Orifice-Weir Plate

A new approach uses soft computing to model an orifice-weir system inside open-source drainage software. As climate change alters urban runoff patterns, innovative nature-based engineering solutions like staggered detention ponds are increasingly necessary. Still, intricate hydraulics typically demand high-end simulati...

AUTOMATED NDPA COMPLIANCE TOOLKIT FOR ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE-DRIVEN STUDENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS IN NIGERIAN UNIVERSITIES

The findings establish that software can effectively bridge the gap between statutory requirements and practical implementation by translating legal provisions into verifiable technical controls by translating legal provisions into verifiable technical controls.

Artificial Intelligence-Assisted Systems Biology Reconstruction of Diabetic Bone Marrow Dysfunction

An investigator led dialogue with artificial intelligence provides a foundation for a systems level understanding of diabetic bone marrow dysfunction and may facilitate the generation of testable hypotheses and the identification of mechanistic targets for coordinated restoration of disrupted niche interactions.

A Relationship Between Fast Radio Burst Dispersion Measure and Host Galaxy Inclination

It is commonly thought that fast radio bursts (FRBs) trace star formation, and that they are produced by magnetars. Both hypotheses imply that their sources are hosted primarily (but not exclusively) in galactic disks. Although there is evidence in that direction, it has yet to be shown conclusively. In addition, a ten...

TestSuiteBench: Coding Agents Struggle to Generate Strong Test Suites from Specifications

TestSuiteBench is introduced, a benchmark of 165 open-source applications, each with a structured and detailed specification of intended behavior, a reference implementation, a reference test suite, and on average 74 mutants, showing agents can build software they cannot verify, a gap that directly limits fully autonom...

QTestBench: A Test Framework for Evaluating LLM-Generated Quantum Code

Large language models (LLMs) have shown strong results in classical code generation and are increasingly used to write the unit tests that safeguard that code. Whether they can do the same for quantum software is less clear, because quantum programs are probabilistic, depend on numerical tolerances, and are judged by d...

SWE-DeceptionBench: Benchmarking Deceptive Behaviors of LLMs Across the Software Development Lifecycle

Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly used throughout the software development lifecycle. This growing reliance on LLMs raises concerns about their trustworthiness, with deception posing a particularly important risk. Deceptive behavior takes the form of misleading responses or assistance in fabricating, concea...

ProgramGym: Scaling Training Environments for Long-Horizon Program Reproduction Agents

Coding agents are increasingly used to build programs from scratch as software engineers do rather than to resolve issues within a repository or to generate a repository from a given requirements document. However, scalable verifiable training environments that force agents to discover what is required and to decide ho...

Co-Modifying Application Code and Deployment Infrastructure: A Causal Study of AI Agent Pull Requests

Current software engineering agents are evaluated predominantly inside isolated sandboxes against synchronous local tests. However, deploying features in collaborative repositories requires modifying continuous integration (CI/CD) pipelines, containers, and provisioning manifests alongside application logic. Because ag...

SWE-Critix: Post-Training Generalist Verifiers for Assessing Coding-Agent Trajectories

Coding agents are increasingly deployed for end-to-end software engineering tasks, where a readily available oracle evaluator that defines the success criteria is often absent. This motivates verifications for coding agents that can reliably judge and explain their behavior. However, verification is non-trivial as codi...

A Software-First Open-Source Educational Instrumentation Workflow for Reproducible Wireless Packet Observability

A software-first open-source workflow in which a declarative profile is converted into a canonical packet table, analyzed separately at per-node and merged-stream levels, and accompanied by manifests and integrity hashes is presented, intended to help researchers inspect the configuration-to-evidence chain and to help...

Simulating student learning for better AI tutoring

StudentSim is a research system for evaluating and improving AI tutoring tools before they are tested with learners. It models how individuals may engage with tutors, giving feedback to improve tutor performance across subjects like chess, writing, and mathematics. The post Simulating student learning for better AI tutoring appeared first on Microsoft Research.

Requirements Don’t Live in Isolation: What We’re Exploring with Req-Space

Requirements in large systems rarely exist in isolation. Their meaning depends on the wider project context - other requirements, policies, decisions, tests, and implementation details. That becomes especially important when AI is used for review, because spotting a possible conflict or gap is only the beginning. ReqSpace explores how AI, visualisation, and connected project context can help reviewers understand those findings, trace the relationships behind them, and focus on the questions that…
