Automated Reasoning for Vulnerability Management by Design
For securing systems, it is essential to manage their vulnerability posture and design appropriate security controls. Vulnerability management allows to proactively address vulnerabilities by incorporating pertinent security controls into systems designs. Current vulnerability management approaches do not support systematic reasoning about the vulnerability postures of systems designs. To effectively manage vulnerabilities and design security controls, we propose a formally grounded automated r…

Sentiment Analysis in Learning Management Systems Understanding Student Feedback at Scale
During the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic, the educational paradigm has experienced a major change from in person learning traditional to online platforms. The change of learning convention has impacted the teacher-student especially in non-verbal communication. The absent of non-verbal communication has led to a reliance on verbal feedback which diminished the efficacy of the educational experience.

Towards Lifecycle Unlearning Commitment Management: Measuring Sample-level Unlearning Completeness
Growing concerns over data privacy and security highlight the importance of machine unlearning--removing specific data influences from trained models without full retraining. Techniques like Membership Inference Attacks (MIAs) are widely used to externally assess successful unlearning. However, existing methods face two key limitations: (1) maximizing MIA effectiveness (e.g., via online attacks) requires prohibitive computational resources, often exceeding retraining costs; (2) MIAs, designed f…

Omega-regular Verification and Control for Distributional Specifications in MDPs
A classical approach to studying Markov decision processes (MDPs) is to view them as state transformers. However, MDPs can also be viewed as distribution transformers, where an MDP under a strategy generates a sequence of probability distributions over MDP states. This view arises in several applications, even as the probabilistic model checking problem becomes much harder compared to the classical state transformer counterpart. It is known that even distributional reachability and safety probl…

AnatomyCarve: A VR occlusion management technique for medical images based on segment-aware clipping

Existing methods, such as slicing and interactive clipping, are limited in their ability to fully represent internal anatomy in context. In contrast, hand-drawn medical illustrations in anatomy books manage occlusion effectively by selectively removing portions based on tissue type, revealing 3D structures while preserving context.

To address these challenges, this paper proposes a channel-twin (CT) enabled resource-allocation framework for drone-corridor communications, where t…

Efficient Federated Learning with Timely Update Dissemination
Federated Learning (FL) has emerged as a compelling methodology for the management of distributed data, marked by significant advancements in recent years. In this paper, we propose an efficient FL approach that capitalizes on additional downlink bandwidth resources to ensure timely update dissemination. Initially, we implement this strategy within an asynchronous framework, introducing the Asynchronous Staleness-aware Model Update (FedASMU), which integrates both server-side and device-side me…

Applying Informer for Option Pricing: A Transformer-Based Approach
Accurate option pricing is essential for effective trading and risk management in financial markets, yet it remains challenging due to market volatility and the limitations of traditional models like Black-Scholes. In this paper, we investigate the application of the Informer neural network for option pricing, leveraging its ability to capture long-term dependencies and dynamically adjust to market fluctuations. This research contributes to the field of financial forecasting by introducing Info…

Comba: Improving Nonlinear RNNs with Closed-loop Control
Recent efficient sequence modeling methods such as Gated DeltaNet, TTT, and RWKV-7 have achieved performance improvements by supervising the recurrent memory management through Delta learning rule. Unlike previous state-space models (e.g., Mamba) and gated linear attentions (e.g., GLA), these models introduce interactions between the recurrent state and the key vector, resulting in a nonlinear recursive structure. In this paper, we first introduce the concept of Nonlinear RNNs with a comprehens…

UAV-Based Remote Sensing of Soil Moisture Across Diverse Land Covers: Validation and Bayesian Uncertainty Characterization
High-resolution soil moisture (SM) observations are critical for agricultural monitoring, forestry management, and hazard prediction, yet current satellite passive microwave missions cannot directly provide retrievals at tens-of-meter spatial scales. Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) mounted microwave radiometry presents a promising alternative, but most evaluations to date have focused on agricultural settings, with limited exploration across other land covers and few efforts to quantify retrieval…

Programmable Governance for Group-Controlled Decentralized Identifiers
Self-Sovereign Identity (SSI) is a paradigm for digital identity management that offers unique privacy advantages. A key technology in SSI is Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs) and their associated metadata, DID Documents (DDOs). DDOs contain crucial verification material such as the public keys of the entity identified by the DID (i.e., the DID subject) and are often anchored on a distributed ledger to ensure security and availability. Long-lived DIDs need to support updates (e.g., key rotation)…

GoldMind: A Teacher-Centered Knowledge Management System for Higher Education -- Lessons from Iterative Design
Designing Knowledge Management Systems (KMSs) for higher education requires addressing complex human-technology interactions, especially where staff turnover and changing roles create ongoing challenges for reusing knowledge. While advances in process mining and Generative AI enable new ways of designing features to support knowledge management, existing KMSs often overlook the realities of educators' workflows, leading to low adoption and limited impact.

Issue Tracking Ecosystems: Context and Best Practices
Issue Tracking Systems (ITSs), such as GitHub and Jira, are popular tools that support Software Engineering (SE) organisations through the management of ``issues'', which represent different SE artefacts such as requirements, development tasks, and maintenance items. ITSs also support internal linking between issues, and external linking to other tools and information sources. This provides SE organisations key forms of documentation, including forwards and backwards traceability (e.g., Feature…

Parallel CPU-GPU Execution for LLM Inference on Constrained GPUs
Deploying large language models (LLMs) for online inference is often constrained by limited GPU memory, particularly due to the growing KV cache during auto-regressive decoding. Hybrid GPU-CPU execution has emerged as a promising solution by offloading KV cache management and parts of attention computation to the CPU. However, a key bottleneck remains: existing schedulers fail to effectively overlap CPU-offloaded tasks with GPU execution during the latency-critical, bandwidth-bound decode phase…

Malicious node aware wireless multi hop networks: a systematic review of the literature and recommendations for future research
Wireless communication provides great advantages that are not available through their wired counterparts such as flexibility, ease of deployment and use, cost reductions, and convenience. Wireless multi-hop networks (WMN) do not have any centralized management infrastructure. Wireless multi-hop networks have many benefits since proposed. In such networks when a node wants to send a packet to a destination where is not in the transmission range, depend on some intermediate nodes. In this type of…

Automatic Multi-level Feature Tree Construction for Domain-Specific Reusable Artifacts Management
With the rapid growth of open-source ecosystems (e.g., Linux) and domain-specific software projects (e.g., aerospace), efficient management of reusable artifacts is becoming increasingly crucial for software reuse. The multi-level feature tree enables semantic management based on functionality and supports requirements-driven artifact selection. However, constructing such a tree heavily relies on domain expertise, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. To address this issue, this paper pr…
