#DH2025 listening to Taylor Marie Faires on UChicago’s Library and Emerging Technologies 2 day bootcamp-style Summer Camp - they had 'share out' sessions including 'scary stories' which allowed people to share their fears about technology

At this year's Berlin Buzzwords, Justin Mclean addressed common misconceptions, common compliance issues, and the evolution of policies to mitigate these challenges, and shared practical insights to ensure smoother project releases and foster a compliant, collaborative open source community.

Modular Multiparty Sessions with Mixed Choice
MultiParty Session Types (MPST) provide a useful framework for safe concurrent systems. Mixed choice (enabling a participant to play at the same time the roles of sender and receiver) increases the expressive power of MPST as well as the difficulty in controlling safety of communications. Such a control is more viable when modular systems are considered and the power of mixed choice fully exploited only inside loosely coupled modules. We carry over such idea in a type assignment approach to mul…

Special Session: Sustainable Deployment of Deep Neural Networks on Non-Volatile Compute-in-Memory Accelerators
Non-volatile memory (NVM) based compute-in-memory (CIM) accelerators have emerged as a sustainable solution to significantly boost energy efficiency and minimize latency for Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) inference due to their in-situ data processing capabilities. However, the performance of NVCIM accelerators degrades because of the stochastic nature and intrinsic variations of NVM devices. Conventional write-verify operations, which enhance inference accuracy through iterative writing and verif…

The recommender systems community has well-established experimentation pipelines that support reproducible evaluations by facilitating models' benchmarking and comparisons against state-of-the-art methods.

Regression-Based Approach to Anxiety Estimation of Spider Phobics During Behavioural Avoidance Tasks
Phobias significantly impact the quality of life of affected persons. Two methods of assessing anxiety responses are questionnaires and behavioural avoidance tests (BAT). While these can be used in a clinical environment they only record momentary insights into anxiety measures. In this study, we estimate the intensity of anxiety during these BATs, using physiological data collected from unobtrusive, wrist-worn sensors. Twenty-five participants performed four different BATs in a single session,…

Exercising muscles pumps out substances that can suppress the growth of breast cancer cells,
according to an important new study of exercise and cancer.

The study, published last month, involved 32 women who’d survived breast cancer.
After a single session of interval training or weightlifting, their blood contained higher levels of certain molecules,
and those factors helped put the brakes on laboratory-grown breast cancer cells

A single exercise session may slow cancer cell growth, new study shows

Some methods try to include inter-session data but struggle with noise and irrelevant information, reducing performance. Additionally, most models rely on item ID co-occurrence and overlook rich sem…

Integrating LLM-Derived Multi-Semantic Intent into Graph Model for Session-based Recommendation
Session-based recommendation (SBR) is mainly based on anonymous user interaction sequences to recommend the items that the next user is most likely to click. Currently, the most popular and high-performing SBR methods primarily leverage graph neural networks (GNNs), which model session sequences as graph-structured data to effectively capture user intent. However, most GNNs-based SBR methods primarily focus on modeling the ID sequence information of session sequences, while neglecting the rich …
