Context as Memory: Scene-Consistent Interactive Long Video Generation with Memory Retrieval
Recent advances in interactive video generation have shown promising results, yet existing approaches struggle with scene-consistent memory capabilities in long video generation due to limited use of historical context. In this work, we propose Context-as-Memory, which utilizes historical context as memory for video generation. It includes two simple yet effective designs: (1) storing context in frame format without additional post-processing; (2) conditioning by concatenating context and frame…

Composable Building Blocks for Controllable and Transparent Interactive AI Systems
While the increased integration of AI technologies into interactive systems enables them to solve an equally increasing number of tasks, the black box problem of AI models continues to spread throughout the interactive system as a whole. Explainable AI (XAI) techniques can make AI models more accessible by employing post-hoc methods or transitioning to inherently interpretable models. While this makes individual AI models clearer, the overarching system architecture remains opaque. To this end,…

Analysis and Numerical Approximation to Interactive Dynamics of Navier Stokes-Plate Interaction PDE System
We consider a Navier-Stokes fluid-plate interaction (FSI) system which describes the evolutions of the fluid contained within a 3D cavity, as it interacts with a deformable elastic membrane on the ``free" upper boundary of the cavity. These models arise in various aeroelastic and biomedical applications as well as in the control of ocular pressure, and sloshing phenomena. We analyze the well-posedness of weak solutions to the stationary ($λ$-parametrized) coupled PDE system by way of invoking …

Biased AI can Influence Political Decision-Making
As modern large language models (LLMs) become integral to everyday tasks, concerns about their inherent biases and their potential impact on human decision-making have emerged. While bias in models are well-documented, less is known about how these biases influence human decisions. This paper presents two interactive experiments investigating the effects of partisan bias in LLMs on political opinions and decision-making. Participants interacted freely with either a biased liberal, biased conser…

Interactive Reasoning: Visualizing and Controlling Chain-of-Thought Reasoning in Large Language Models
The output quality of large language models (LLMs) can be improved via "reasoning": generating segments of chain-of-thought (CoT) content to further condition the model prior to producing user-facing output. While these chains contain valuable information, they are verbose and lack explicit organization, making them tedious to review. Moreover, they lack opportunities for user feedback, such as to remove unwanted considerations, add desired ones, or clarify unclear assumptions. We introduce Int…
