Haptic-Based User Authentication for Tele-robotic System
Tele-operated robots rely on real-time user behavior mapping for remote tasks, but ensuring secure authentication remains a challenge. Traditional methods, such as passwords and static biometrics, are vulnerable to spoofing and replay attacks, particularly in high-stakes, continuous interactions. This paper presents a novel anti-spoofing and anti-replay authentication approach that leverages distinctive user behavioral features extracted from haptic feedback during human-robot interactions.

Hypothesis Testing for Quantifying LLM-Human Misalignment in Multiple Choice Settings
As Large Language Models (LLMs) increasingly appear in social science research (e.g., economics and marketing), it becomes crucial to assess how well these models replicate human behavior. In this work, using hypothesis testing, we present a quantitative framework to assess the misalignment between LLM-simulated and actual human behaviors in multiple-choice survey settings. This framework allows us to determine in a principled way whether a specific language model can effectively simulate human…

Hauptsätze! Klare Aussagen! Dieser Satz kein Verb!
So funktioniert Propaganda, Werbung. Einfache klare Aussagen, keine Ablenkung. Anweisungen, unterschwellig Befehle.
Einordnen, begründen, argumentieren, abwägen findet in Nebensätzen statt. „Etwas gilt, _weil_ …“, „ich befürworte, _obwohl_ …“, usw. Nebensätze stellen Bezüge zwischen Aussagen her.
Nebensätze sind zweischneidig. Konstrukte wie „Es ist so, daß irgendwas gilt“ verschieben die Aussage einfach nur in den Nebensat…

The Sample Complexity of Distributed Simple Binary Hypothesis Testing under Information Constraints
This paper resolves two open problems from a recent paper, arXiv:2403.16981, concerning the sample complexity of distributed simple binary hypothesis testing under information constraints. The first open problem asks whether interaction reduces the sample complexity of distributed simple binary hypothesis testing. In this paper, we show that sequential interaction does not help. The second problem suggests tightening existing sample complexity bounds for communication-constrained simple binary …

The Perception of Phase Intercept Distortion and its Application in Data Augmentation
Phase distortion refers to the alteration of the phase relationships between frequencies in a signal, which can be perceptible. In this paper, we discuss a special case of phase distortion known as phase-intercept distortion, which is created by a frequency-independent phase shift. We hypothesize that, though this form of distortion changes a signal's waveform significantly, the distortion is imperceptible. Human-subject experiment results are reported which are consistent with this hypothesis.…
