Oh dear -- within a day of hearing about this from another professor, I got my first LLM-generated email from an aspiring grad student. It mischaracterized my research (apparently I write lots of mathematical formulas, ha!) and ascribed papers to me that I never wrote, which are basically remixes of common words in my paper titles. If you do this, you will insult the people you want to impress.

Iterative Methods for the Projected Solutions of Quasi-equilibrium Problems
Aussel et al. (J Optim Theory Appl 170 818-837 2016) introduced the concept of projected solutions for the quasi-variational inequalities with a non-self constraint map, that is, the case where the constraint map may take values outside the feasible set. This paper presents two iterative methods to determine the projected solutions for quasi-equilibrium problems (QEP). We prove the convergence of the sequence generated by iterative methods to a projected solution of the QEP under some suitable …

Proportional Sensitivity in Generative Adversarial Network (GAN)-Augmented Brain Tumor Classification Using Convolutional Neural Network
Generative Adversarial Networks (GAN) have shown potential in expanding limited medical imaging datasets. This study explores how different ratios of GAN-generated and real brain tumor MRI images impact the performance of a CNN in classifying healthy vs. tumorous scans. A DCGAN was used to create synthetic images which were mixed with real ones at various ratios to train a custom CNN. The CNN was then evaluated on a separate real-world test set. Our results indicate that the model maintains hig…

Australia approves 250 MW agrivoltaic solar farm in Tasmania
Australia's federal government has approved a 250 MW agrivoltaic solar farm in Tasmania, following a 20-day review. The landowner-led project is designed to minimize environmental impact and integrate solar generation with agricultural use.

User Perceptions and Attitudes Toward Untraceability in Messaging Platforms
Mainstream messaging platforms offer a variety of features designed to enhance user privacy, such as disappearing messages, password-protected chats, and end-to-end encryption (E2EE), which primarily protect message contents. Beyond contents, the transmission of messages generates metadata that can reveal who communicates with whom, when and how often. In this paper, we study user perceptions of "untraceability", i.e., preventing third parties from tracing who communicates with whom, with the g…
