arXiv:2604.06178v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The use of generative AI (genAI) tools as informal tutors is becoming increasingly prevalent among secondary school students in mathematics learning. In many schools, individualized instructional support is limited, and one-on-one human tutoring remains costly in most learning contexts. GenAI has the potential to provide timely, on-demand help to students when teachers or tutors are not available. However, there are still few studies that examine students’ preferences for AI tutor support that enhances […]

arXiv:2604.06177v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Specialized web tasks in finance, biomedicine, and pharmaceuticals remain challenging due to missing domain priors: queries drift, evidence is noisy, and reasoning is brittle. We present WebExpert, a domain-aware web agent that we implement end-to-end, featuring : (i) sentence-level experience retrieval with topic merging and rule distillation, (ii) schemalight facet induction that bootstraps time,region,policy,industry facets from weak supervision instead of static hand-written lexicons, and (iii) preference-optimized planning that jointly improves query planning and […]

arXiv:2604.06176v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We present an empirical study of embedding-based retrieval under realistic conversational settings, where queries are short, dialogue-like, and weakly specified, and retrieval corpora contain structured conversational artifacts. Focusing on Qwen3-embedding models, we identify a deployment-relevant robustness vulnerability: under conversational retrieval without query prompting, structured dialogue-style noise can become disproportionately retrievable and intrude into top-ranked results, despite being semantically uninformative. This failure mode emerges consistently across model scales, remains largely invisible under standard clean-query […]

arXiv:2604.06175v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Financial management has been revolutionized by mobile banking, but increasing usefulness and satisfaction requires a better user experience. This study aims to provide an improved customer experience by offering user-friendly interfaces, and real-time notifications by user-centric design of mobile banking application UI. A survey was carried out on the target audience in which 81% of respondents to a study of 103 people said they regularly used mobile banking apps, while 77% said they […]

arXiv:2604.06174v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Behavioral changes in daily life activities at home can be digital markers of cognitive decline. However, such changes are difficult to assess through sporadic clinical visits and remain challenging to interpret from continuous in-home sensing data. Extensive work has been done in the ubiquitous computing area on recognizing activities in smart homes, but only limited efforts have focused on analysing the evolution of patterns of activities, hence identifying behavior changes. In particular, understanding […]

arXiv:2604.06173v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Legal QA benchmarks have predominantly focused on case law, overlooking the unique challenges of statute-centric regulatory reasoning. In statutory domains, relevant evidence is distributed across hierarchically linked documents, creating a statutory retrieval gap where conventional retrievers fail and models often hallucinate under incomplete context. We introduce SearchFireSafety, a structure- and safety-aware benchmark for statute-centric legal QA. Instantiated on fire-safety regulations as a representative case, the benchmark evaluates whether models can retrieve hierarchically fragmented […]

arXiv:2604.06172v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Cold-start cross-domain recommender (CDR) systems predict a user’s preferences in a target domain using only their source-domain behavior, yet existing CDR models either map opaque embeddings or rely on post-hoc or LLM-generated rationales that are hard to audit. We introduce EviSnap a lightweight CDR framework whose predictions are explained by construction with evidence-cited, faithful rationales. EviSnap distills noisy reviews into compact facet cards using an LLM offline, pairing each facet with verbatim supporting […]

arXiv:2604.06171v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Communications networks now form the backbone of our digital world, with fast and reliable connectivity. However, even with appropriate redundancy and failover mechanisms, it is difficult to guarantee “five 9s” (99.999 %) reliability, requiring rapid and accurate root cause analysis (RCA) during outages. In the event of an outage, rapid and accurate RCA becomes essential to restore service and prevent future disruptions. This study evaluates three Large Language Model (LLM) methodologies – Fine-Tuning, […]

Release: asgi-gzip 0.3 I ran into trouble deploying a new feature using SSE to a production Datasette instance, and it turned out that instance was using datasette-gzip which uses asgi-gzip which was incorrectly compressing event/text-stream responses. asgi-gzip was extracted from Starlette, and has a GitHub Actions scheduled workflow to check Starlette for updates that need to be ported to the library… but that action had stopped running and hence had missed Starlette’s own fix for this issue. I […]
