Using Generative Adversarial Networks (GAN) to detect Cyber Threats

En esta presentación se explora el uso de redes neuronales y GAN para detectar amenazas cibernéticas, especificamente malware ofuscado. La propuesta descrita transforma archivos binarios en imágenes en escala de grises y emplea modelos convolucionales como ResNet y EfficientNet p...

LLM-Guided Semantic Mutation for Lua Interpreter Fuzzing: A Coverage-Driven Approach

Here we have the software artifacts for the paper 'LLM-Guided Semantic Mutation for Lua Interpreter Fuzzing: A Coverage-Driven Approach'. The work proposes a methodology that uses Large Language Models (LLMs) to generate semantically rich mutations for fuzzing Lua scripts. Our ap...

LAB #408 NEUTRAL: LEDGER BENCH: Apply filter: NZDUSD LONG — improves win rate from 32.4% to 35.5% (+3.1pp, n=62) — E8 Intelligence Research

IDEA: Adjustment made to the live model — verify against the backtests: Apply filter: NZDUSD LONG — improves win rate from 32.4% to 35.5% (+3.1pp, n=62) **SAME-WINDOW EFFECT:** Applying the NZDUSD LONG filter would have zero impact on the current live trade window, as no NZDUSD t...

Fast dynamic simulation and control of a boost DC-DC inverter

Efficient and accurate simulation is essential for the modeling and control of high-frequency DC-DC converters. Conventional numerical integrators require very small time steps to capture fast switching dynamics, leading to high computational cost. This paper introduces a discret...

Protest and handcuffs: The repressive effect of arrests

How does arresting protesters shape subsequent mobilization? Arrests account for approximately 14% of government responses to protest and differ theoretically from other repressive tactics, yet their effects on future mobilization remain understudied. We argue that arrests raise...

Framing trust: the role of media bias in shaping taxpayer compliance motivation

Tax avoidance and evasion impose substantial fiscal costs on governments worldwide, while growing social media reliance amplifies biased narratives’ capacity to shape public perceptions of government accountability. Despite extensive research on deterrence and behavioural economi...

The pharmacogGENEtics in Youth Depression (GENE-YD) study for personalizing antidepressant pharmacotherapy for young Western Australians – A feasibility study

Abstract Pharmacogenetic (PGx) testing to guide antidepressant prescribing is becoming increasingly available. However, its uptake into routine psychiatric practice for young people remains limited due to insufficient youth-specific evidence and uncertainty regarding optimal tria...

PREDICTIVE MAINTENANCE OF PRODUCTION EQUIPMENT USING ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE METHODS

The work provides a comprehensive analysis of modern approaches to predictive maintenance of production equipment using artificial intelligence methods. It examines the features of reactive, preventive, and predictive maintenance strategies, as well as the principles for building...

Perceptions and Practices of Medical Interns on Clinical Empathy

Background: Clinical empathy enhances doctor-patient relationships and treatment outcomes, yet its development among medical interns remains underexplored. Objectives: The objective of the study was to assess interns’ perceptions and self-reported practices of clinical empathy in...

Hepatectomy After Progressive Disease Following Chemotherapy for Colorectal Liver Metastases: A Japanese Nationwide Cohort Study

Abstract Purpose We evaluated the postoperative outcomes of patients with progressive disease after systemic chemotherapy compared with those with controlled disease. Methods This retrospective study analyzed patients from the Colorectal Cancer Liver Metastasis Database, compiled...

Moving Equity into Practice: Evaluation of an Online Asynchronous Continuing Medical Education Program for Rheumatology Care

Objectives Persistent health inequities exist in the diagnosis, treatment, and outcomes of rheumatologic diseases among at-risk populations in Canada. Prior research identified barriers and facilitators experienced by at-risk populations in Canada when accessing rheumatology care...

Identity construction between the individual and society: an examination of decision-making processes in the context of collectivism and individualism

This study examines how individuals raised in collectivist family structures construct their identities and make major life decisions within the tension between individual autonomy and relational obligations. Moving beyond the conventional dichotomy of individualism and collectiv...

Dynamic Online Identification and Countermeasures against Phishing Vectors

Phishing remains a critical network threat whereattackers deploy deceptive web pages—often distributed viaengineered emails or instant messages—to trick users intosurrendering credentials and financial data. In this paper, weintroduce LinkGuard, a novel end-host anti-phishing alg...

The Ink Strikes Back: Tattoo-Associated Uveitis Syndrome. A 5-Case Series

Objectives Tattoo-Associated Uveitis Syndrome (TAUS) is a rare immune-mediated condition characterized by synchronous inflammation, including some cases with granulomatous involvement, of tattooed skin and ocular structures, reflecting a hypersensitivity to pigment antigens. This...

Inscription of power dynamics in platformized classrooms. Exploring coded spaces of platform architectures through Participatory Action Research

Platforms contribute to the ‘world-making’ of education; they play a co-constitutive role by envisioning and inscribing the functionalities anticipated in education. As programmable digital architectures, they both shape and are shaped by teachers’ and students’ practices. Buildi...

Cost comparison of community-based vector surveillance using VectorCamTM, an AI-enabled mosquito identification tool, versus routine entomological surveillance in Uganda

Abstract Background National malaria elimination programs depend on timely and reliable vector surveillance data to guide interventions. Current systems rely on analog data collection and microscopy-based morphological identification of mosquitoes by entomologists (vector control...

Sensory data-driven classification of complex regional pain syndrome: a multicentre cohort study

BACKGROUND: The underlying pathophysiological mechanisms of complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) have been under debate in recent years. Previous studies identified mechanistic CRPS subtypes, which were characterised as 'cold' and 'warm' or peripheral and central phenotypes. Our...

HIOF· Anthropology - Paper V: Thermodynamic Foundations and the Complexity Cliff

From Institutional Trust to Verifiable Properties

Financial settlement systems rely heavily on institutional trust: intermediaries maintain ledgers, certifycompliance, and prevent unauthorized creation or movement of value. Zero-knowledge (ZK) techniques make itpossible to replace part of that trust with verifiable properties. T...
