Beyond Measurement Metrics: A Human-Centered Framework for Semantic Validation of Network Traffic Classification

Machine learning (ML) has become the dominant approach for network traffic classification, achieving very high predictive performance. However, a model is only valuable if it learns semantically meaningful and trustworthy patterns rather than exploiting spurious correlations. Conventional evaluation practices predomina...

A multimodal large language model for evidence-based autism spectrum disorder screening

The clinical management of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) faces a bottleneck in early screening, mainly because trained specialists are scarce and conventional assessment tools are subjective. Here, we introduce ASDchat, a multimodal large language model designed for evidence-based ASD screening, which takes video, aud...

Pseudo-Label Augmentation for Affect Sensing in Small Collaborative Groups

Physiological affect sensing in naturalistic group interaction is often limited by sparse labels rather than sensor data: wearable devices produce many time windows, while self-reports are collected only a few times per session. Using GroupAffect-4, a four-person collaborative dataset with wearable physiology, eye trac...

A Wearable Multimodal Ultrasound+Inertial System for Real-Time Virtual Reality Interaction

A-mode ultrasound (US) is a promising sensing modality for Virtual Reality (VR) interaction, as it enables the mapping of muscular activity into control commands while retaining the benefits of wearable sensing. However, existing approaches still face limitations in terms of wearability and interaction complexity, ofte...

AI Debris: Residual Risk and the Afterlife of Failed AI Systems

AI governance frameworks primarily focus on risks during the development and deployment phases, implicitly treating system withdrawal as merely a technical shutdown. This paper argues that decommissioned AI systems generate residual risk, termed "AI debris", that persists after models are removed and continues to shape...

Revisiting Sustainability by Design in AI Protocol Governance: An Empirical Review of Comparative DAO and Corporate-Led Standards for the SDGs

This paper revisits a comparative study of two AI-agent interoperability standards, Ethereum Request for Comments 8004 (ERC-8004) and Google's Agent2Agent (A2A), and derives actionable design principles for sustainable AI governance.

PaintCopilot: Modeling Painting as Autonomous Artistic Continuation

PaintCopilot lets AI autonomously act on an artwork whose direction is still open, through interruptible, revisable delegation mechanisms spanning individual strokes, extended sequences, bounded regions, and prior stroke history.

Keys on Doormats: Exposed API Credentials on the Web

API (Application Programming Interface) keys allow applications to authenticate themselves to third-party services. Inadvertent public exposure of these credentials can pose significant consequences, as adversaries can use them to gain privileged access to other services. In this paper, we measure API credential exposu...

From Continuous sEMG Signals to Discrete Muscle State Tokens: A Robust and Interpretable Representation Framework

Surface electromyography (sEMG) signals exhibit substantial inter-subject variability and are highly susceptible to noise, posing challenges for robust and interpretable decoding. To address these limitations, we propose a discrete representation of sEMG signals based on a physiology-informed tokenization framework. Th...

Emotions are Recognized Patterns of Cognitive Operations in Closed Control Loops

This paper proposes that the mind pursues goals with closed control loops and emotions are recognized patterns of cognitive operations in the control loops and advances the building of a more accurate theory of emotions that deepens the understanding of human minds and accelerates the construction of artificial minds.

Towards the ideals of Self-Recovery and Metadata Privacy in Social Vault Recovery with Apollo

Apollo is a social recovery mechanism that aims to avoid any memorability assumptions while strongly protecting recovery metadata privacy, and uses a novel multi-layered secret sharing scheme to mitigate the computational overhead of recovery in this setting, which would otherwise be exponential in the recovery thresho...

What AI gets wrong and what failure teaches us

Jennifer Neville did not want to go into computer science—but that’s exactly where she landed. Neville discusses the starts and stops that led to her professional sweet spot and her work identifying “surprising failures” making it hard for AI to handle complexity.  The post What AI gets wrong and what failure teaches us appeared first on Microsoft Research.
