This paper examines the strategic manipulationof government debt data—referred to as ”fiscal rule stretch-ing”—among European Union member states, particularly inresponse to electoral incentives, financial market stress, and theconstraints of the Stability and Growth Pact (SGP). Using Euro-stat revisions of government debt figures, we find that countrieswith higher debt levels, particularly those exceeding the 60% ofGDP SGP threshold, are more likely to have their debt figuresrevised upwards. Our analysis further reveals that eurozonemembers are more inclined to engage in […]

Brussels wrote the world’s most extensive AI rulebook in 2024, and now the European Commission is seeking to ensure that it can actually be used – without grinding deployment to a halt. The EU AI Act entered into force on August 1, 2024, framed as a global beacon of safety and rights. “I believe it’s going to change the world more than anything in the history of mankind. More than electricity,” Taiwanese computer scientist and founding director of Microsoft Research China, […]

The proliferation of facial recognition (FR) systems has raised privacy concerns in the digital realm, as malicious uses of FR models pose a significant threat. Traditional countermeasures, such as makeup style transfer, have suffered from low transferability in black-box settings and limited applicability across various demographic groups, including males and individuals with darker skin tones. To address these challenges, we introduce a novel facial privacy protection method, dubbed textbf{MAP}, a pioneering approach that employs human emotion modifications to […]

Learning-to-communicate (LTC) in partially observable environments has received increasing attention in deep multi-agent reinforcement learning, where the control and communication strategies are jointly learned. Meanwhile, the impact of communication on decision-making has been extensively studied in control theory. In this paper, we seek to formalize and better understand LTC by bridging these two lines of work, through the lens of information structures (ISs). To this end, we formalize LTC in decentralized partially observable Markov decision processes (Dec-POMDPs) under […]

Built a framework which captures your geometry dash system and uses OpenCV to convert image detection into a feature vector and runs a PPO RL algorithm on it. It can currently beat the first 5 levels but I want to eventually make it beat more complicated levels. Biggest issue right now is that inside of using OpenCV which very slow I need some sort of injector to get the game state details faster. Also restricted to my M2 […]

Freezing of Gait (FOG) is a debilitating motor symptom commonly experienced by individuals with Parkinson’s Disease (PD) which often leads to falls and reduced mobility. Timely and accurate prediction of FOG episodes is essential for enabling proactive interventions through assistive technologies. This study presents a reinforcement learning-based framework designed to identify optimal pre-FOG onset points, thereby extending the prediction horizon for anticipatory cueing systems. The model implements a Double Deep Q-Network (DDQN) architecture enhanced with Prioritized Experience Replay […]

Physical dynamical systems can be viewed as natural information processors: their systems preserve, transform, and disperse input information. This perspective motivates learning not only from data generated by such systems, but also how to measure them in a way that extracts the most useful information for a given task. We propose a general computing framework for adaptive information extraction from dynamical systems, in which a trainable attention module learns both where to probe the system state and how […]
