Modelling and Analysing Behaviours and Emotions via Complex User Interactions
Over the past 15 years, the volume, richness and quality of data collected from the combined social networking platforms has increased beyond all expectation, providing researchers from a variety of disciplines to use it in their research. Perhaps more impactfully, it has provided the foundation for a range of new products and services, transforming industries such as advertising and marketing, as well as bringing th
Data Leakage Detection and De-duplication in Large Scale Geospatial Image Datasets
In our study, we conducted a comprehensive analysis of three widely used datasets in the domain of building footprint extraction using deep neural networks: the INRIA Aerial Image Labelling dataset, SpaceNet 2: Building Detection v2, and the AICrowd Mapping Challenge datasets. Our experiments revealed several issues in the AICrowd Mapping Challenge dataset, where nearly 90% (about 250k) of the training split images h
Interpolation of mountain weather forecasts by machine learning
Recent advances in numerical simulation methods based on physical models and their combination with machine learning have improved the accuracy of weather forecasts. However, the accuracy decreases in complex terrains such as mountainous regions because these methods usually use grids of several kilometers square and simple machine learning models. While deep learning has also made significant progress in recent year
In this paper, we study whether language models are affected by learned gender stereotypes during the comprehension of stories. Specifically, we investigate how models respond to gender stereotype perturbations through counterfactual data augmentation.

"You tell me": A Dataset of GPT-4-Based Behaviour Change Support Conversations
Conversational agents are increasingly used to address emotional needs on top of information needs. One use case of increasing interest are counselling-style mental health and behaviour change interventions, with large language model (LLM)-based approaches becoming more popular. Research in this context so far has been largely system-focused, foregoing the aspect of user behaviour and the impact this can have on LLM-
Whispers in the Machine: Confidentiality in Agentic Systems
Large language model (LLM)-based agents combine LLMs with external tools to automate tasks such as scheduling meetings, managing documents, or booking travel. While these integrations unlock powerful capabilities, they also create new and more severe attack surfaces. In particular, prompt injection attacks become far more dangerous in the agentic setting: malicious instructions embedded in connected services can misd
Unifying Controller Design for Stabilizing Nonlinear Systems with Norm-Bounded Control Inputs
This paper revisits a classical challenge in the design of stabilizing controllers for nonlinear systems with a norm-bounded input constraint. By extending Lin-Sontag's universal formula and introducing a generic (state-dependent) scaling term, a unifying controller design method is proposed. The incorporation of this generic scaling term gives a unified controller and enables the derivation of alternative univer
Personalized Embodied Navigation for Portable Object Finding
Embodied navigation methods commonly operate in static environments with stationary objects. In this work, we present approaches for tackling navigation in dynamic scenarios with non-stationary targets. In an indoor environment, we assume that these objects are everyday portable items moved by human intervention. We therefore formalize the problem as a personalized habit learning problem. To learn these habits, we in
This report investigates the history and impact of Generative Models and Connected and Automated Vehicles (CAVs), two groundbreaking forces pushing progress in technology and transportation. By focusing on the application of generative models within the context of CAVs, the study aims to unravel how this integration could enhance predictive modeling, simulation accuracy, and decision-making processes in autonomous ve
Finite-dimensional approximations of push-forwards on locally analytic functionals
This paper develops a functional-analytic framework for approximating the push-forward induced by an analytic map from finitely many samples. Instead of working directly with the map, we study the push-forward on the space of locally analytic functionals and identify it, via the Fourier--Borel transform, with an operator on the space of entire functions of exponential type. This yields finite-dimensional approximatio
A Generalist Model for Diverse Text-Guided Medical Image Synthesis
Deep learning algorithms require extensive data to achieve robust performance. However, data availability is often restricted in the medical domain due to patient privacy concerns. Synthetic data presents a possible solution to these challenges. Image generative models have found increasing use for medical applications, but are often task-specific, thus limiting their scalability. Moreover, existing models frequently
A Novel Method for News Article Event-Based Embedding
Embedding news articles is a crucial tool for multiple fields, such as media bias detection, identifying fake news, and making news recommendations. However, existing news embedding methods are not optimized to capture the latent context of news events. Most embedding methods rely on full-text information and neglect time-relevant embedding generation. In this paper, we propose a novel lightweight method that optimiz
Smart Bilingual Focused Crawling of Parallel Documents
Crawling parallel texts -- texts that are mutual translations -- from the Internet is usually done following a brute-force approach: documents are massively downloaded in an unguided process, and only a fraction of them end up leading to actual parallel content. In this work we propose a smart crawling method that guides the crawl towards finding parallel content more rapidly. We follow a neural approach that consist
DASB - Discrete Audio and Speech Benchmark
Discrete audio tokens have recently gained considerable attention for their potential to bridge audio and language processing, enabling multimodal language models that can both generate and understand audio. However, preserving key information such as phonetic content, speaker identity, and paralinguistic cues remains a major challenge. Identifying the optimal tokenizer and configuration is further complicated by inc
AlignedCut: Visual Concepts Discovery on Brain-Guided Universal Feature Space
We study the intriguing connection between visual data, deep networks, and the brain. Our method creates a universal channel alignment by using brain voxel fMRI response prediction as the training objective. We discover that deep networks, trained with different objectives, share common feature channels across various models. These channels can be clustered into recurring sets, corresponding to distinct brain regions
Towards Auto-Building of Embedded FPGA-based Soft Sensors for Wastewater Flow Estimation
Executing flow estimation using Deep Learning (DL)-based soft sensors on resource-limited IoT devices has demonstrated promise in terms of reliability and energy efficiency. However, its application in the field of wastewater flow estimation remains underexplored due to: (1) a lack of available datasets, (2) inconvenient toolchains for on-device AI model development and deployment, and (3) hardware platforms designed

Byzantine-tolerant distributed learning of finite mixture models
Traditional statistical methods need to be updated to work with modern distributed data storage paradigms. A common approach is the split-and-conquer framework, which involves learning models on local machines and averaging their parameter estimates. However, this does not work for the important problem of learning finite mixture models, because subpopulation indices on each local machine may be arbitrarily permuted
Effects of Collaboration on the Performance of Interactive Theme Discovery Systems
NLP-assisted solutions to support qualitative data analysis have gained considerable traction. However, no unified evaluation framework exists which can account for the many different settings in which qualitative researchers may employ them.

Who Benefits from AI? Self-Selection, Skill Gap, and the Hidden Costs of AI Feedback
Feedback from artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly easy to access and research has already established that people learn from it. But individuals choose when and how to seek such feedback, and more engaged and motivated individuals may seek it more, creating an illusion of effectiveness that masks self-selection. We investigate how the endogenous choice to seek AI feedback shapes both individual learning and
