An Embarrassingly Simple Graph Heuristic Reveals Shortcut-Solvable Benchmarks for Sequential Recommendation

Sequential recommendation is a central task in recommender systems, and recent research has increasingly shifted toward generative recommenders that leverage both sequential patterns and semantic item information. However, these methods are often evaluated on a small set of widely used benchmarks. This raises a natural question: do these benchmarks actually require the advanced modeling capabilities […]

When silence is safer: a review and decision-theoretic framework for LLM abstention in healthcare

Large language models (LLMs) are designed to generate answers to user prompts, which often drives them to respond even when uncertainty is high, information is incomplete, or a refusal would be more appropriate. In healthcare, this tendency can be dangerous: confidently stated but inaccurate medical advice can cause significant harm, making the ability to abstain

Advancing regulatory variant effect prediction with AlphaGenome

🔘 Paper page: nature.com/articles/s41586-025-10014-0 Abstract Deep learning models that predict functional genomic measurements from DNA sequences are powerful tools for deciphering the genetic regulatory code. Existing methods involve a trade-off between input sequence length and prediction resolution, thereby limiting their modality scope and performance1,2,3,4,5. We present AlphaGenome, a unified DNA sequence model, which takes as

Sequence Feature Extraction for Malware Family Analysis via Graph Neural Network

Malicious software (malware) causes much harm to our devices and life. We are eager to understand the malware behavior and the threat it made. Most of the record files of malware are variable length and text-based files with time stamps, such as event log data and dynamic analysis profiles. Using the time stamps, we can

Between words and characters: A Brief History of Open-Vocabulary Modeling and Tokenization in NLP

In this survey, we connect several lines of work from the pre-neural and neural era, by showing how hybrid approaches of words and characters as well as subword-based approaches based on learned segmentation have been proposed and evaluated. We conclude that there is and likely will never be a silver bullet singular solution for all

Federated Learning: Issues in Medical Application

In this presentation, the current issues to make federated learning flawlessly useful in the real world will be briefly overviewed. They are related to data/system heterogeneity, client management, traceability, and security. Also, we introduce the modularized federated learning framework, we currently develop, to experiment various techniques and protocols to find solutions for aforementioned issues. The

Ethics-based auditing of automated decision-making systems: intervention points and policy implications

Organisations increasingly use automated decision-making systems (ADMS) to inform decisions that affect humans and their environment. While the use of ADMS can improve the accuracy and efficiency of decision-making processes, it is also coupled with ethical challenges. Unfortunately, the governance mechanisms currently used to oversee human decision-making often fail when applied to ADMS.

The Word is Mightier than the Label: Learning without Pointillistic Labels using Data Programming

We analyze the math fundamentals behind DP and demonstrate the power of it by applying it on two real-world text classification tasks. Furthermore, we compare DP with pointillistic active and semi-supervised learning techniques traditionally applied in data-sparse settings.
