EHR-MCP: Real-world Evaluation of Clinical Information Retrieval by Large Language Models via Model Context Protocol
Background: Large language models (LLMs) show promise in medicine, but their deployment in hospitals is limited by restricted access to electronic health record (EHR) systems. The Model Context Protocol (MCP) enables integration between LLMs and external tools. Objective: To evaluate whether an LLM connected to an EHR database via MCP can autonomously retrieve clinically relevant information in a real hospital setting. Methods: We developed EHR-MCP, a framework of custom MCP tools integrate…

Re-FRAME the Meeting Summarization SCOPE: Fact-Based Summarization and Personalization via Questions
Meeting summarization with large language models (LLMs) remains error-prone, often producing outputs with hallucinations, omissions, and irrelevancies. We present FRAME, a modular pipeline that reframes summarization as a semantic enrichment task. FRAME extracts and scores salient facts, organizes them thematically, and uses these to enrich an outline into an abstractive summary. To personalize summaries, we introduce SCOPE, a reason-out-loud protocol that has the model build a reasoning trace …

Single-Round Deterministic Quantum Anonymous Veto Using Bell States
Quantum Anonymous Veto (QAV) protocols enable secure and anonymous decision-making by allowing participants to detect the presence of a veto without revealing individual choices. While existing QAV schemes offer strong theoretical guarantees, they face significant limitations in practical implementation due to resource requirements, scalability issues, and the need for multipartite entanglement. In this work, we propose a novel deterministic QAV protocol that leverages only bipartite entangleme…

A stochastic heat engine driven using a nonlinear protocol
A colloidal particle confined in a time-dependent optical trap can function as a microscopic heat engine, with optimization strategies playing a crucial role in enhancing its performance. In this study, we numerically investigate a Stirling heat engine operating in both passive and active environments using a protocol inspired by the Engineered Swift Equilibration (ESE) method. This approach differs from the standard process and focuses on enhancing engine efficiency, particularly at short time…

Angelfish: Consensus with Optimal Throughput and Latency Across the Leader-DAG Spectrum
To maximize performance, many modern blockchain systems rely on eventually-synchronous, Byzantine fault-tolerant (BFT) consensus protocols. Two protocol designs have emerged in this space: protocols that minimize latency using a leader that drives both data dissemination and consensus, and protocols that maximize throughput using a separate, asynchronous data dissemination layer. Recent protocols such as Partially-Synchronous Bullshark and Sailfish combine elements of both approaches by using a…

A Hypothesis-First Framework for Mechanistic Model Evaluation and Selection in Neuroimaging
Neuroimaging provides rich measurements of brain structure and neural activity, but turning these data into mechanistic insight remains difficult.

We present a framework that recasts modeling choices as testable mechanistic hypotheses and supplies a simple protocol for rejecti…

Ring polymers in two-dimensional melts double-fold around randomly branching "primitive shapes"
Drawing inspiration from the concept of the "primitive path" of a linear chain in melt conditions, we introduce here a numerical protocol which allows us to detect, in an unambiguous manner, the "primitive shapes" of ring polymers in two-dimensional melts. Then, by analysing the conformational properties of these primitive shapes, we demonstrate that they conform to the statistics of two-dimensional branched polymers (or, trees) in the same melt conditions, in agreement with seminal theoretical…

Wouter constant is talking about permissionlessness. Nostr is a protocol that doesn't need some central server to authenticate your requests. Which is good. But this means that, say, children can use it without parents permission.
Online safety act and others are closing down the internet to protect them kids. So can nostr have accounts that do need permission? Can it be made kid safe? Of only to satisfy crazy governments under parent pressure.
Weboftrustfoundation exists to try and build kidstr, some kind of nostr for children.
Mostly just asking questions so far. How can it work? How can it avoid labelling vulnerable people to exploit?

AI control protocols serve as a defense mechanism to stop untrusted LLM agents from causing harm in autonomous settings. Prior work treats this as a security problem, stress testing with exploits that use the deployment context to subtly complete harmful side tasks, such as backdoor insertion. In practice, most AI control protocols are fundamentally based on LLM monitors, which can become a central point of failure.

Quantum key distribution (QKD) relies on single photon sources (SPSs), e.g. from solid-state systems, as flying qubits, where security strongly requires sub-Poissonian photon statistics with low second-order correlation values (\$g^{(2)}(0)\$). However, achieving such low \$g^{(2)}(0)\$ remains experimentally challenging. We therefore propose a decoy-like QKD protocol that relaxes this constraint while maintaining security.

A protocol to reduce worst-case latency in deflection-based on-chip networks
We present a novel protocol that reduces worst-case packet latency in deflection-based on-chip interconnect networks. It enforces the deflection of the header of a packet but not its payload, resulting in a reduction in overall network traffic and, more importantly, worst-case packet latency due to decreased pre-injection latency.

Zk-SNARK Marketplace with Proof of Useful Work
Proof of Work (PoW) is widely regarded as the most secure permissionless blockchain consensus protocol. However, its reliance on computationally intensive yet externally useless puzzles results in excessive electric energy wasting. To alleviate this, Proof of Useful Work (PoUW) has been explored as an alternative to secure blockchain platforms while also producing real-world value. Despite this promise, existing PoUW proposals often fail to embed the integrity of the chain and identity of the m…

A Fast-Converging Decentralized Approach to the Weighted Minimum Vertex Cover Problem
We address the problem of computing a Minimum Weighted Vertex Cover (MWVC) in a decentralized network. MWVC, a classical NP-hard problem, is foundational in applications such as network monitoring and resource placement. We propose a fully decentralized protocol where each node makes decisions using only local knowledge and communicates with its neighbors. The method is adaptive, communication-efficient, and avoids centralized coordination. We evaluate the protocol on real-world and synthetic g…

High-efficiency and long-distance quantum memory-assisted device-independent quantum secret sharing with single photon sources
Quantum secret sharing (QSS) plays a critical role in building the distributed quantum networks. Device-independent (DI) QSS provides the highest security level for QSS. However, the photon transmission loss and extremely low multipartite entanglement generation rate largely limit DI QSS's secure photon transmission distance and practical key generation efficiency. To address the above drawbacks, we propose the quantum memory-assisted (QMA) DI QSS protocol based on single photon sources (SPSs).…

Man-in-the-Middle Proof-of-Concept via Krontiris' Ephemeral Diffie-Hellman Over COSE (EDHOC) in C
This report presents some technical details on the authentication process of a lightweight key exchange protocol, paying attention on how Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) attacks could undermine its security, e.g., under the scope of lawful interception and its risk to facilitate mass surveillance. We focus only on some technical aspects associated to the attack scenario. Perspectives for future work are also discussed. Other specific aspects of the work, mainly focusing on the security implications of…

Hybrid MAC Protocol with Integrated Multi-Layered Security for Resource-Constrained UAV Swarm Communications
Flying Ad Hoc Networks (FANETs) present unique challenges due to high node mobility, dynamic topologies, and strict resource constraints. Existing routing protocols often optimize for a single metric, such as path length or energy, while neglecting the complex dependencies between network performance, security, and MAC layer efficiency. This paper introduces a novel hardware software co design framework for secure and adaptive UAV swarm communications, featuring an energy aware protocol stack. …

Toxic Ink on Immutable Paper: Content Moderation for Ethereum Input Data Messages (IDMs)
Decentralized communication is becoming an important use case within Web3. On Ethereum, users can repurpose the transaction input data field to embed natural-language messages, commonly known as Input Data Messages (IDMs). However, as IDMs gain wider adoption, there has been a growing volume of toxic content on-chain. This trend is concerning, as Ethereum provides no protocol-level support for content moderation. We propose two moderation frameworks for Ethereum IDMs: (i) BUILDERMOD, where bu…

Verifiable blind observable estimation: A composably secure protocol for near-term quantum advantage tasks
The rapid advance of quantum hardware is spotlighting pre-fault-tolerant tasks that may no longer be efficiently validated by classical means and are likely to run on potentially untrusted remote quantum servers. This motivates problem-independent verification protocols with rigorous guarantees. The Verifiable Blind Quantum Computation (VBQC) protocol provides delegated computation where the composable security spans the confidentiality and integrity of the computation. However, the success o…

Incoherent Imaging with Spatially Structured Quantum Probes
Incoherent imaging, including fluorescence and absorption microscopy, is often limited by weak signals and resolution constraints -- notoriously, Rayleigh's curse. We investigate how spatially structured quantum probes, combined with quantum detection strategies like spatial mode demultiplexing and photon counting, overcome these limitations. We propose a novel imaging protocol based on twin-beam echoes that maps the generalized incoherent-imaging model -- comprising both absorption and fluores…

Subspace Leakage Error Randomized Benchmarking of Mølmer-Sørensen Gates
We demonstrate a new technique that adapts single-qubit randomized benchmarking to two-qubit Mølmer-Sørensen gates. We use the controllable gate phase to generate Cliffords that act on a two-state subspace, enabling benchmarking of two-qubit gates without single-qubit operations. In addition to quantifying the gate infidelity, the protocol provides valuable information about the type of error by distinguishing between those that conserve the two-state subspace and those that result in leakage…

PoS-CoPOR: Proof-of-Stake Consensus Protocol with Native Onion Routing Providing Scalability and DoS-Resistance
Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus protocols often face a trade-off between performance and security. Protocols that pre-elect leaders for subsequent rounds are vulnerable to Denial-of-Service (DoS) attacks, which can disrupt the network and compromise liveness. In this work, we present PoS-CoPOR, a single-chain PoS consensus protocol that mitigates this vulnerability by integrating a native onion routing mechanism into the consensus protocol itself. PoS-CoPOR combines stake-weighted probabilistic …

Non-Clifford Gates are Required for Long-Term Memory
We show that all Clifford circuits under interspersed depolarizing noise lose memory of their input exponentially quickly, even when given access to a constant supply of fresh qubits in arbitrary states. This is somewhat surprising given the result of Aharonov et al. [STOC1997] which gives a fault-tolerant protocol for general quantum circuits using a supply of fresh qubits. Our result shows that such a protocol is impossible using only Clifford gates demonstrating that non-Clifford gates are f…

N-Parties Private Structure and Parameter Learning for Sum-Product Networks
A sum-product network (SPN) is a graphical model that allows several types of probabilistic inference to be performed efficiently. In this paper, we propose a privacy-preserving protocol which tackles structure generation and parameter learning of SPNs. Additionally, we provide a protocol for private inference on SPNs, subsequent to training. To preserve the privacy of the participants, we derive our protocol based on secret sharing, which guarantees privacy in the honest-but-curious setting ev…
