Because of the pervasive use of deep neural networks (DNNs), especially in high-stakes domains, the interpretability of DNNs has received increased attention. The general idea of rationale extraction (RE) is to provide an interpretable-by-design framework for DNNs via a select-predict architecture where two neural networks learn jointly to perform feature selection and prediction, respectively. Given only the remote supervision from the final task prediction, the process of learning to select subsets of features (or emph{rationales}) requires searching in […]

arXiv:2602.02520v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: AI technology development has transformed the field of engineering education with its adaptivity-driven, data-based, and ethical-led learning platforms that promote equity, diversity, and inclusivity. But with so much progress being made in so many areas, there are unfortunately gaps in gender equity, representation in cultures around the world, and access to education and jobs in stem education. The paper describes an ethical approach to using AI technology that supports the United Nations 2030 […]

In this paper, we investigate new active-set-type methods for l1-regularized linear regression that overcome some difficulties of existing active set methods. By showing a relationship between $l1$-regularized linear regression and the linear complementarity problem with bounds, we present a fast active-set-type method, called block principal pivoting. This method accelerates computation by allowing exchanges of several variables among working sets. We further provide an improvement of this method, discuss its properties, and also explain a connection to the structure […]

When starting a new project with Github, have you ever faced the issue below? The issue arises because the branches lack a shared history. While the branches might have identical file names and code, their underlying histories differ. This happens when the original source is added to a brand-new repository instead of being cloned from the original repo. How to solve this issue? To solve this issue, run the following commands: git checkout master git branch main master […]

After having gone through at least 3 rounds where I had to present research solutions for problems, I get the feeling that I’m doing free labour for these guys. They usually give you a week and given the current glut of candidates, it feels like this could easily be happening in the background. This includes Mid tech companies (not FAANG) and startups. Is there some truth to this suspicion? For the most recent one, I purposefully chose not […]

The rapid evolution of Large Language Models (LLMs) between 2024 and 2026 has ushered in a transformative era of artificial intelligence capabilities, characterized by significant architectural innovations, multimodal integration, and enhanced reasoning abilities. This paper presents a comprehensive comparative analysis of state-of-the-art LLMs including Anthropic’s Claude Opus 4.6, OpenAI’s GPT-5 series, Google’s Gemini 2.5/3 Pro, and emerging models such as GLM-4.6. The release of Claude Opus 4.6 in early 2026 represents a significant milestone, introducing a 1 million […]
