Demographic Baseline for Pediatric Forearm Fracture Localization: A Machine- Learning Benchmark Using the PediURF Dataset

This study establishes a demographic benchmark for pediatric forearm fracture localization using the PediURF dataset, demonstrating that age and sex alone provide moderate predictive information (macro AUC ~0.70) comparable to simple logistic regression, while more complex machine learning algorithms offered no significant improvement and class imbalance handling primarily influenced decision thresholds rather than the intrinsic predictive power of the metadata.

Boundary-Stabilized Oversampling for Interpretable Clinical Prediction in Imbalanced and Data-Scarce Regimes

This paper introduces Boundary-Stabilized SMOTE (BS-SMOTE), a domain-constrained oversampling technique that integrates feature-specific interpolation and physiological feasibility clipping to significantly improve the accuracy and interpretability of rare adverse event predictions in data-scarce, imbalanced clinical settings, as demonstrated by its superior performance in predicting peri-anesthetic hypoxemia in veterinary anesthesia.

Frequency Range of Fourier Phase Space as a Candidate Code for Musical Pitch Structure: Evidence from Artificial Neural Network Models of Iranian Classical Music

This study demonstrates that artificial neural networks trained on the micro-tonal pitch structure of Iranian classical music spontaneously develop hidden unit representations dominated by Fourier phase spaces, confirming that this frequency range serves as a universal candidate code for musical pitch structure beyond Western tonal systems.

Estimand-Relative Validity and Context-Driven Instability of Shapley Explanations for Tabular Foundation Models

This paper demonstrates that the validity and stability of Shapley explanations for tabular foundation models are critically dependent on the choice of removal operator relative to the intended estimand and are significantly influenced by in-context examples, necessitating explicit specification of these factors for reliable interpretation.

Does Graph Structure Improve AI-Generated Text Detection? A Controlled Audit with Tuned Baselines

This paper demonstrates that while graph neural networks initially appear to outperform sequential baselines in detecting AI-generated text, rigorous controlled auditing reveals their superior performance is an artifact of untuned regularization and that their graph structure merely re-encodes information already captured by tuned embedding probes, offering no genuine architectural advantage.
