BadSFL: backdoor attack in scaffold federated learning by Zhang, Xuanye

“…It maintains stealthiness by selecting a specific feature as a backdoor trigger and utilizes Scaffold's control variate to predict the global model's convergence direction, ensuring the persistence of the backdoor function the within global model. Our evaluation results demonstrate the effectiveness of our attack with stealthiness, durability, and high accuracy in both backdoor and primary tasks.…”

An empirical study on the effects of promotion of corporate social responsibility on employees’ organizational citizenship behaviors. by Huang, WanQing., Liew, Shi Min., Lee Ping, Joyce.

“…In turn, employees’ perceptions of CSR relate to higher OCBs, with a greater effect on OCB (O) than OCB (I). However, contrary to our prediction, CSR perceptions do not mediate the relationship between promotion of CSR and OCB. …”

Bayesian lesion estimation with a structured spike-and-slab prior by Menacher, A, Nichols, T, Holmes, C, Ganjgahi, H

“…The use of mean-field variational inference with dynamic posterior exploration, which is an annealing-like strategy that improves optimization, allows our method to scale to large sample sizes. Our method also accounts for underestimation of posterior variance due to variational inference by providing an approximate posterior sampling approach based on Bayesian bootstrap ideas and spike-and-slab priors with random shrinkage targets. …”

Online tree reconstruction and forest inventory on a mobile robotic system by Freißmuth, L, Mattamala Aravena, M, Chebrolu, N, Schaefer, S, Leutenegger, S, Fallon, M

“…This enables us to refine our estimates of the tree traits if an area is revisited later during a mission. …”

DSIF factor Spt5 coordinates transcription, maturation and exoribonucleolysis of RNA polymerase II transcripts by Kuś, K, Carrique, L, Kecman, T, Fournier, M, Hassanein, SS, Aydin, E, Kilchert, C, Grimes, JM, Vasiljeva, L

“…Spt5 is also a key factor that attenuates the expression of non-coding transcripts, coordinates pre-mRNA splicing and 3’-end processing. Our findings indicate that engagement with the transcribing Pol II is an essential regulatory step modulating the activity of RNA enzymes such as Xrn2, thus advancing our understanding of how RNA maturation is controlled during transcription.…”

Whole-brain turbulent dynamics predict responsiveness to pharmacological treatment in major depressive disorder by Escrichs, A, Sanz Perl, Y, Fisher, PM, Martínez-Molina, N, G-Guzman, E, Frokjaer, VG, Kringelbach, ML, Knudsen, GM, Deco, G

“…Importantly, our model-free approach enabled prediction of which patients would turn out to be non-responders. …”

Secret collusion among AI agents: multi-agent deception via steganography by Motwani, SR, Baranchuk, M, Strohmeier, M, Bolina, V, Torr, PHS, Hammond, L, Schroeder de Witt, C

“…Our work is the first to formalize and investigate secret collusion among frontier foundation models, identifying it as a critical area in AI Safety and outlining a comprehensive research agenda to mitigate future risks of collusion between generative AI systems.…”

Exponential tail local Rademacher complexity risk bounds without the Bernstein condition by Kanade, V, Rebeschini, P, Vaškevičius, T

“…However, our bound applies under an estimator-dependent geometric condition (the “offset condition”) instead of the estimator-independent (but, in general, distribution-dependent) Bernstein condition on which the classical theory relies. …”

Quantum oscillations probe the Fermi surface topology of the nodal-line semimetal CaAgAs by Kwan, Y, Reiss, P, Han, Y, Bristow, M, Prabhakaran, D, Graf, D, McCollam, A, Ashok Parameswaran, S, Coldea, A

“…These effects are expected in CaAgAs due to the lack of inversion symmetry. Our study experimentally demonstrates that CaAgAs is an ideal platform for exploring the physics of nodal line semimetals and our approach can be extended to other materials in which trivial and nontrivial oscillations are present.…”

GaussCtrl: multi-view consistent text-driven 3D Gaussian splatting editing by Wu, J, Bian, J-W, Li, X, Wang, G, Reid, I, Torr, P, Prisacariu, VA

“…We propose GaussCtrl, a text-driven method to edit a 3D scene reconstructed by the 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS). Our method first renders a collection of images by using the 3DGS and edits them by using a pre-trained 2D diffusion model (ControlNet) based on the input prompt, which is then used to optimise the 3D model. …”

Unveiling the importance of longer paths in quantum networks by Hu, X, Dong, G, Lambiotte, R, Christensen, K, Fan, J, Tian, Z, Havlin, S, Meng, X

“…Here, we apply statistical physics to identify the origin of this stronger connectivity—known as concurrence percolation. Our finding is demonstrated on hierarchical scale-free networks, the (U,V) flowers, which allow full analytical control over path connectivity by adjusting the two distinct path length scales, U ≤ V. …”
