GuideTWSI: A Diverse Tactile Walking Surface Indicator Dataset from Synthetic and Real-World Images for Blind and Low-Vision Navigation

This paper introduces GuideTWSI, a diverse dataset combining synthetic and real-world images to address the scarcity of Tactile Walking Surface Indicator (TWSI) data, specifically bridging the gap between East Asian directional bars and North American/European truncated domes to improve navigation safety for blind and low-vision individuals.

ADAS-TO: A Large-Scale Multimodal Naturalistic Dataset and Empirical Characterization of Human Takeovers during ADAS Engagement

This paper introduces ADAS-TO, the first large-scale naturalistic multimodal dataset of 15,659 ADAS-to-manual takeover events from 327 drivers, which combines kinematic and vision-language analysis to characterize safety-critical scenarios and demonstrate that actionable visual cues often precede takeovers by over three seconds.

What Does AI Do for Cultural Interpretation? A Randomized Experiment on Close Reading Poems with Exposure to AI Interpretation

A randomized experiment involving 400 participants reveals that while AI assistance can enhance both performance and pleasure in close reading poems, the benefits are optimized with a single interpretation rather than multiple, as heavy reliance on AI improves task performance but diminishes the enjoyment of the experience.

Agentic Neurosymbolic Collaboration for Mathematical Discovery: A Case Study in Combinatorial Design

This paper presents a neurosymbolic collaboration between an LLM-powered agent, symbolic computation tools, and human researchers that successfully discovered and formally verified a new tight lower bound on the imbalance of Latin squares for the case n1(mod3)n \equiv 1 \pmod{3}, demonstrating the potential of AI-human partnerships in pure mathematical discovery.

A prospective clinical feasibility study of a conversational diagnostic AI in an ambulatory primary care clinic

This prospective feasibility study demonstrates that a conversational AI system (AMIE) can safely and effectively conduct clinical history-taking and generate diagnostic suggestions in a real-world urgent care setting, achieving high patient satisfaction and diagnostic accuracy comparable to primary care providers while requiring no real-time human intervention.

Pushing Bistatic Wireless Sensing toward High Accuracy at the Sub-Wavelength Scale

This paper addresses the sub-wavelength sensing accuracy limitations in bistatic wireless systems caused by clock asynchronism by deriving a quantitative mapping between distorted channel ratios and ideal features, enabling a robust framework that leverages signal amplitude to reconstruct fine-grained displacement details with nearly an order-of-magnitude improvement.

Generalization in Online Reinforcement Learning for Mobile Agents

This paper addresses the underexplored challenge of generalization in online reinforcement learning for mobile GUI agents by introducing the AndroidWorld-Generalization benchmark and a scalable GRPO-based training system, demonstrating that while RL significantly improves zero-shot performance on unseen task instances, generalization to new templates and applications remains difficult and benefits from test-time few-shot adaptation.
