From Human Oversight to Effective Control: A Socio-Technical Safety-Control Framework for High-Risk AI Systems

This paper introduces the Oversight-to-Control (O2C) framework, a socio-technical model comprising six functions and supporting conditions, to diagnose why human oversight often fails to achieve effective control in high-risk AI systems by analyzing regulatory instruments and real-world cases where interpretation and timely intervention frequently break down.

Quantum-Resilient DICOM Image Secret Sharing with Quasi-Periodic Unitary Scrambling and Hypergraph Authentication

This paper proposes AJIT, a high-fidelity classical–quantum hybrid framework that ensures quantum-resilient secure sharing and multiparty authentication of DICOM medical images by combining DTCWT-based compression, quasi-periodic unitary scrambling, and topological hypergraph verification to achieve lossless reconstruction and robust differential resistance.

Retrieval-Augmented Large-Language-Model-Based Time-Series Forecasting for Cross-Market Equity Analysis

This study introduces the Cross-Market Retrieval-Augmented Lag-Llama (CM-RAF-Lag-Llama) framework, demonstrating that integrating historical retrieval with a pre-trained Lag-Llama model significantly reduces forecasting errors across diverse equity markets by leveraging analogous historical windows to correct predictions, particularly for volatility and volume-related targets.

Restricted Multimodal Oncology AI: Role-Aware Evidence Organisation and Cross-Domain Transfer Boundaries

This paper demonstrates that in restricted multimodal oncology settings with limited and heterogeneous data, auditable evidence-role organization—assigning specific, compact roles to molecular, phenotypic, and clinical inputs—is a more critical determinant of cross-domain transfer performance than simply increasing representation scale.

Navigating the Prompt Space: Improving LLM Classification of Social Science Texts Through Prompt Engineering

This paper demonstrates that while systematically varying prompt engineering elements like label descriptions, instructional nudges, and few-shot examples can significantly improve LLM classification accuracy for social science texts, performance gains are often marginal beyond minimal context increases, can sometimes decline with excessive context, and vary substantially across models and tasks, necessitating individual validation rather than reliance on general rules.
