Small Is Enough: Per-User Style Rewriting of AI-Edited Text via LoRA Adapters

A single-user case study of InMyStyle, a privacy-first, single-user system that adapts small language models to rewrite AI-edited text towards an individual user's writing style without an instruction prompt at inference, finds gains favor content-preserving naturalization more than recovery of personal style.

A Benchmarking Framework for Context-aware XR Interfaces

Everyday Extended Reality (XR) systems aim to provide context-aware access to the right functionalities at the right time and place, with minimal manual reconfiguration as users switch context. Yet these interfaces are hard to evaluate: current prototyping and user-study workflows offer no systematic, repeatable way to...
