Position: Evaluating Generative AI Systems Is a Social Science Measurement Challenge
The measurement tasks involved in evaluating generative AI (GenAI) systems lack sufficient scientific rigor, leading to what has been described as "a tangle of sloppy tests [and] apples-to-oranges comparisons" (Roose, 2024). In this position paper, we argue that the ML community would benefit from learning from and drawing on the social sciences when developing and using measurement instruments for evaluating GenAI systems. Specifically, our position is that evaluating GenAI systems is a social…

Self-Sustaining Multi-Sensor LoRa-Based Activity Monitoring for Community Workout Parks
With the rise of the Internet of Things (IoT), more sensors are deployed around us, covering a wide range of applications from industry and agriculture to urban environments such as smart cities. Throughout these applications the sensors collect data of various characteristics and support city planners and decision-makers in their work processes, ultimately maximizing the impact of public funds. This paper introduces the design and implementation of a self-sustaining wireless sensor node design…

Descriptor: C++ Self-Admitted Technical Debt Dataset (CppSATD)
In software development, technical debt (TD) refers to suboptimal implementation choices made by the developers to meet urgent deadlines and limited resources, posing challenges for future maintenance. Self-Admitted Technical Debt (SATD) is a sub-type of TD, representing specific TD instances ``openly admitted'' by the developers and often expressed through source code comments. Previous research on SATD has focused predominantly on the Java programming language, revealing a significant gap in …

Reply to the Comment on "Shell-Shaped Quantum Droplet in a Three-Component Ultracold Bose Gas"
In our work (Phys. Rev. Lett. 134, 043402 (2025)), we have proposed to realize a shell-shaped BEC with self-bound character in a three-component ($1,2,3$) Bose gas, where $(2,3)$ and $(1,2)$ both form quantum droplets and meanwhile are linked as core-shell structure. It was then commented in 2505.16554 that such structure is unstable against decaying to a ``dimer" configuration with lower energy, and moreover, it is ``most likely" impossible to be realized after releasing from the trap. In cont…

Comment on "Long-range crossed Andreev reflection in a topological insulator nanowire proximitized by a superconductor" by Junya Feng et al
We argue that the interpretation of the experiment [Nature Physics 21, 708-715 (2025)] is misleading in two respects. First, the bias voltages impact the non-local differential conductance randomly, rather than systematically, and the bias symmetry of the non-local conductance in Fig. 3 can be explained by a fine tuned self-gating effect. Second, the full knowledge of the conductance matrix is insufficient to conclude on the relative values of the crossed-Andreev and elastic cotunneling probabi…

Towards Verifiability of Total Value Locked (TVL) in Decentralized Finance
Total Value Locked (TVL) aims to measure the aggregate value of cryptoassets deposited in Decentralized Finance (DeFi) protocols. Although blockchain data is public, the way TVL is computed is not well understood. In practice, its calculation on major TVL aggregators relies on self-reports from community members and lacks standardization, making it difficult to verify published figures independently. We thus conduct a systematic study on 939 DeFi projects deployed in Ethereum. We study the meth…
