TPSQLi: Test Prioritization for SQL Injection Vulnerability Detection in Web Applications
The rapid proliferation of network applications has led to a significant increase in network attacks. According to the OWASP Top 10 Projects report released in 2021, injection attacks rank among the top three vulnerabilities in software projects. This growing threat landscape has increased the complexity and workload of software testing, necessitating advanced tools to support agile development cycles. This paper introduces a novel test prioritization method for SQL injection vulnerabilities to…

Do Large Language Models Favor Recent Content? A Study on Recency Bias in LLM-Based Reranking
Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed in information systems, including being used as second-stage rerankers in information retrieval pipelines, yet their susceptibility to recency bias has received little attention. We investigate whether LLMs implicitly favour newer documents by prepending artificial publication dates to passages in the TREC Deep Learning passage retrieval collections in 2021 (DL21) and 2022 (DL22). Across seven models, GPT-3.5-turbo, GPT-4o, GPT-4, LLaMA-3 8…

The impact on health system expenditure in Australia and OECD countries from accelerated NCD mortality decline through prevention or treatment strategies to achieve Sustainable Development Goal Target 3.4
Background: It is unclear what the relative impacts of prevention or treatment of NCDs are on future health system expenditure. First, we estimated expenditure in Australia for prevention vs treatment pathways to achieve SDG target 3.4. Second, we applied the method to 34 other OECD countries. Methods: We used GBD data to estimate average annual percentage changes in disease incidence, remission, and CFRs from 1990-2021, and projected to 2030 to estimate business-as-usual (BAU) reductions in …

A Study of Spectral Variability between flaring and non-flaring state in M74 X-1
We conducted an extensive long-term spectral and timing study of the ultraluminous X-ray source (ULX) M74 X-1, using data taken between 2001 and 2021 by Chandra and XMM-Newton X-ray observatories. Our analysis shows that flares are present in some observations, whereas they are absent in others. Flaring state exhibits two-component spectra at a lower average flux level, whereas the non-flaring state displays single-component spectra at a higher average flux level. The M74 X-1 spectra are best d…

Mode stability for self-similar blowup of slightly supercritical NLS: II. high-energy spectrum
In continuation of the study of the companion work, we prove the high-energy mode stability for linearized operator around self-similar profiles in [Bahri-Martel-Raphaël, 2021] for slightly mass-supercritical NLS in $1 \le d \le 10$. This concludes the asymptotic stability of such self-similar blowup, and answers the question from [Bahri-Martel-Raphaël, 2021] and [Merle-Raphaël-Szeftel, 2010]. As a byproduct, we characterize the spectrum for linearized operator around mass-critical ground st…

Strategic Customer Behavior in an M/M/1 Feedback Queue with General Payoffs
We consider an M/M/1 feedback queue in which service attempts may fail, requiring the customer to rejoin the queue. Arriving customers act strategically, deciding whether to join the queue based on a threshold strategy that depends on the number of customers present. Their decisions balance the expected service reward against the costs associated with waiting, while accounting for the behavior of others. This model was first analyzed by Fackrell, Taylor and Wang (2021), who assumed that waiti…

Gravitational Recoil and Suppression of Super Massive Black Hole Seeds in the Early Universe
We investigate the impact of gravitational-wave (GW) recoil on the growth of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) in the early Universe. Forming ~10^9 Msun SMBHs by z ~ 6 is challenging and may require hierarchical mergers of smaller seed black holes. We extend a semi-analytic seed model (Sassano et al. 2021) by explicitly incorporating GW recoil physics. Our model includes: (1) recoil velocity formulae calibrated to numerical relativity for spinning, unequal-mass BH binaries (Campanelli et al. 200…

Estimating Global HIV Prevalence in Key Populations: A Cross-Population Hierarchical Modeling Approach
Key populations at high risk of HIV infection are critical for understanding and monitoring HIV epidemics, but global estimation is hampered by sparse, uneven data. We analyze data from 199 countries for female sex workers (FSW), men who have sex with men (MSM), and people who inject drugs (PWID) over 2011-2021, and introduce a cross-population hierarchical model that borrows strength across countries, years, and populations. The model combines region- and population-specific means with country…

Quantile-based Fractional Generalized Cumulative Past Entropy
Uncertainty in past lifetime distributions and the timing of inactivity in systems and their components can be effectively measured using the fractional generalized cumulative past entropy (FGCPE) and its dynamic extension (DFGCPE), introduced by Di Crescenzo et al. (2021). Building on this framework, we propose a quantile-based variant, the quantile fractional generalized cumulative past entropy (QFGCPE), along with its dynamic time-dependent counterpart (DQFGCPE). Closed-form expressions of t…

Hamilton Cycles In Vertex-Transitive Graphs of Order 10p
After a long term efforts, the Hamiltonian problem of connected vertex-transitive graphs of order $pq$ (where $p$ and $q$ are primes) was finally finshed in 2021, see [10]. Fifteen years ago, mathematicians began to challenge this problem for graphs of order $2pq$. Among of them, it was proved in 2012 (see [21]) that every connected vertex-transitive graph of order $10p$ (where $p\neq7$ is a prime) contains a Hamilton path, with the exception of a family of graphs which was recently confirmed i…

A Framework of Distributed Source Encryption using Mutual Information Security Criterion and the Strong Converse Theorem
We reinvestigate the general distributed secure source coding based on the common key cryptosystem proposed by Oohama and Santoso (ITW 2021). They proposed a framework of distributed source encryption and derived the necessary and sufficient conditions to have reliable and secure transmission. However, the bounds of the rate region, which specifies both necessary and sufficient conditions to have reliable and secure transmission under the proposed cryptosystem, were derived based on a self-tail…

Stealing Accuracy: Predicting Day-ahead Electricity Prices with Temporal Hierarchy Forecasting (THieF)
We introduce the concept of temporal hierarchy forecasting (THieF) in predicting day-ahead electricity prices and show that reconciling forecasts for hourly products, 2- to 12-hour blocks, and baseload contracts significantly (up to 13%) improves accuracy at all levels. These results remain consistent throughout a challenging 4-year test period (2021-2024) in the German power market and across model architectures, including linear regression, a shallow neural network, gradient boosting, and a s…

Satellite and Mobile Phone Data Reveal How Violence Affects Seasonal Migration in Afghanistan
Seasonal migration plays a critical role in stabilizing rural economies and sustaining the livelihoods of agricultural households. Violence and civil conflict have long been thought to disrupt these labor flows, but this hypothesis has historically been hard to test given the lack of reliable data on migration in conflict zones. Focusing on Afghanistan in the 8-year period prior to the Taliban's takeover in 2021, we first demonstrate how satellite imagery can be used to infer the timing of the …
