Auto-ARGUE: LLM-Based Report Generation Evaluation
Generation of long-form, citation-backed reports is a primary use case for retrieval augmented generation (RAG) systems. While open-source evaluation tools exist for various RAG tasks, ones tailored to report generation are lacking. Accordingly, we introduce Auto-ARGUE, a robust LLM-based implementation of the recent ARGUE framework for report generation evaluation. We present analysis of Auto-ARGUE on the report generation pilot task from the TREC 2024 NeuCLIR track, showing good system-level …

Skill, Will, or Both? Understanding Digital Inaccessibility from Accessibility Professionals' Viewpoint
Digital inaccessibility continues to be a significant barrier to true inclusion and equality. WebAIM's 2024 report reveals that only 4.1% of the world's top one million website homepages are fully accessible. Furthermore, the percentage of web pages with detectable Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) failures has only decreased by 1.9\% over the past five years, from 97.8%. To gain deeper insights into the persistent challenges of digital accessibility, we conducted a comprehensive surv…

2024: Zum ersten Mal mehr Internet-Bots als Menschen. 37 % davon „Bad Bots“. Sie klauen Daten, manipulieren Preise, täuschen Klicks – und füttern das Netz mit KI-Schrott. Jörg Schieb warnt: Wir surfen durch eine Bot-Fata Morgana und nennen es Social Media. #BadBot #KI

Predicting Movie Success with Multi-Task Learning: A Hybrid Framework Combining GPT-Based Sentiment Analysis and SIR Propagation
This study presents a hybrid framework for predicting movie success. The framework integrates multi-task learning (MTL), GPT-based sentiment analysis, and Susceptible-Infected-Recovered (SIR) propagation modeling. The study examines limitations in existing approaches. It models static production attributes, information dissemination, and audience sentiment at the same time. The framework uses 5,840 films from 2004 to 2024 and approximate 300,000 user reviews. It shows predictive performance wit…

The Uranus Flagship: Investigating New Paradigms for Outer Solar System Exploration Workshop Summary Report
This white paper is a summary of the Uranus Flagship Workshop that took place 21 to 23 May 2024 at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center. Co-led by Goddard and Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Lab conveners, we had a broad, international, Science Organizing Committee, and a largely early career Local Organizing Committee from APL and GSFC. From prior workshops, it was apparent that the community was wildly enthusiastic about starting a mission, but lacked focus on what was possible or where to begin.…

Congested Clique Counting for Local Gibbs Distributions

Congested Clique Counting for Local Gibbs Distributions
There are well established reductions between combinatorial sampling and counting problems (Jerrum, Valiant, Vazirani TCS 1986). Building off of a very recent parallel algorithm utilizing this connection (Liu, Yin, Zhang arxiv 2024), we demonstrate the first approximate counting algorithm in the CongestedClique for a wide range of problems. Most interestingly, we present an algorithm for approximating the number of $q$-colorings of a graph within $ε$-multiplicative error, when $q>αΔ$ for any…

Student explanation in middle and secondary mathematics and statistics: A scoping literature review
This scoping review examines the literature on student explanation strategies in middle and secondary mathematics and statistics education from 2014 to 2024. Following the PRISMA protocol, we analyzed 41 studies that met the inclusion criteria. The findings classify student explanations into two types: self-explanation (SE) and peer explanation (PE). Both approaches enhance conceptual understanding and procedural knowledge, though each offers distinct benefits and challenges. SE is particularly…
