MobiShield: Federated Android Malware Detection with Adaptive Differential Privacy under Concept Drift

MobiShield is a novel federated learning framework for Android malware detection that simultaneously addresses non-IID data heterogeneity, concept drift, and privacy leakage by integrating adaptive feature weighting, Hoeffding-based drift detection, and a dynamic differential privacy mechanism that adjusts noise levels in response to distribution shifts.

Foreground-Oriented Response Calibration for Unknown Object Detection

The paper proposes CAFR, a two-path detection framework that enhances unknown object detection by employing an asymmetric rectification mechanism to prevent known-category overconfidence and prototype-guided foreground modeling to improve objectness estimation, thereby achieving superior precision and F1 scores while maintaining stable known-category performance.

MotionMonitor: A Technology Probe for Accessible Wearable Interfaces to Support Interpretation of ADHD-Related Behaviors in Classrooms

This paper presents MotionMonitor, a technology probe combining smartwatch sensing and mobile interfaces to support clinicians and educators in interpreting ADHD-related behaviors within classroom contexts, emphasizing that effective wearable systems must preserve environmental nuance, minimize student distraction, and serve as prompts for human sensemaking rather than automated diagnostic tools.
