The transition of Ethereum from a Proof-of-Work (PoW) to a Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus mechanism introduces a transformative approach to blockchain validation, offering enhanced scalability, energy efficiency, and security. However, this shift also presents significant challenges, including high barriers to becoming a validator, restrictions on the liquidity of staked Ether (ETH), and the risk of centralization due to staking pool dynamics. This paper addresses these challenges by exploring two innovative solutions: EigenLayer and Lido. EigenLayer is a middleware solution enabling restaking, allowing validators to secure multiple protocols and thereby increasing decentralization and profitability. Lido, a liquid staking protocol, simplifies participation by issuing stETH tokens that retain liquidity, allowing users to earn rewards without long-term lock-up constraints. This paper provides a detailed analysis of how these technologies mitigate key PoS challenges, reduce validator entry barriers, unlock staked capital, and improve decentralization. We conclude with an evaluation of the combined potential of EigenLayer and Lido to foster a more resilient and inclusive Ethereum ecosystem, setting the stage for further advancements in decentralized finance.

Natural Language Inference (NLI) tasks require identifying the relationship between sentence pairs, typically classified as entailment, contradiction, or neutrality. While the current state-of-the-art (SOTA) model, Entailment Few-Shot Learning (EFL), achieves a 93.1% accuracy on the Stanford Natural Language Inference (SNLI) dataset, further advancements are constrained by the dataset's limitations. To address this, we propose a novel approach leveraging synthetic data augmentation to enhance dataset diversity and complexity. We present UnitedSynT5, an advanced extension of EFL that leverages a T5-based generator to synthesize additional premise-hypothesis pairs, which are rigorously cleaned and integrated into the training data. These augmented examples are processed within the EFL framework, embedding labels directly into hypotheses for consistency. We train a GTR-T5-XL model on this expanded dataset, achieving a new benchmark of 94.7% accuracy on the SNLI dataset, 94.01% accuracy on the E-SNLI dataset, and 92.57% accuracy on the MultiNLI dataset, surpassing the previous SOTA models. This research demonstrates the potential of synthetic data augmentation in improving NLI models, offering a path forward for further advancements in natural language understanding tasks.

Automatic syllable stress detection is a crucial component in Computer-Assisted Language Learning (CALL) systems for language learners. Current stress detection models are typically trained on clean speech, which may not be robust in real-world scenarios where background noise is prevalent. To address this, speech enhancement (SE) models, designed to enhance speech by removing noise, might be employed, but their impact on preserving syllable stress patterns is not well studied. This study examines how different SE models, representing discriminative and generative modeling approaches, affect syllable stress detection under noisy conditions. We assess these models by applying them to speech data with varying signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs) from 0 to 20 dB, and evaluating their effectiveness in maintaining stress patterns. Additionally, we explore different feature sets to determine which ones are most effective for capturing stress patterns amidst noise. To further understand the impact of SE models, a human-based perceptual study is conducted to compare the perceived stress patterns in SE-enhanced speech with those in clean speech, providing insights into how well these models preserve syllable stress as perceived by listeners. Experiments are performed on English speech data from non-native speakers of German and Italian. And the results reveal that the stress detection performance is robust with the generative SE models when heuristic features are used. Also, the observations from the perceptual study are consistent with the stress detection outcomes under all SE models.

We propose an overview of the decentralized reconfiguration language Concerto-D through its Maude formalization. Concerto-D extends the already published Concerto language. Concerto-D improves on two different parameters compared with related work: the decentralized coordination of numerous local reconfiguration plans which avoid a single point of failure when considering unstable networks such as edge computing, or cyber-physical systems (CPS) for instance; and a mechanized formal semantics of the language with Maude which offers guarantees on the executability of the semantics. Throughout the paper, the Concerto-D language and its semantics are exemplified with a reconfiguration extracted from a real case study on a CPS. We rely on the Maude formal specification language, which is based on rewriting logic, and consequently perfectly suited for describing a concurrent model.

Although fine-tuning Large Language Models (LLMs) with multilingual data can rapidly enhance the multilingual capabilities of LLMs, they still exhibit a performance gap between the dominant language (e.g., English) and non-dominant ones due to the imbalance of training data across languages. To further enhance the performance of non-dominant languages, we propose ShifCon, a Shift-based Contrastive framework that aligns the internal forward process of other languages toward that of the dominant one. Specifically, it shifts the representations of non-dominant languages into the dominant language subspace, allowing them to access relatively rich information encoded in the model parameters. The enriched representations are then shifted back into their original language subspace before generation. Moreover, we introduce a subspace distance metric to pinpoint the optimal layer area for shifting representations and employ multilingual contrastive learning to further enhance the alignment of representations within this area. Experiments demonstrate that our ShifCon framework significantly enhances the performance of non-dominant languages, particularly for low-resource ones. Further analysis offers extra insights to verify the effectiveness of ShifCon and propel future research

The rapid advancement of Extended Reality (XR, encompassing AR, MR, and VR) and spatial computing technologies forms a foundational layer for the emerging Metaverse, enabling innovative applications across healthcare, education, manufacturing, and entertainment. However, research in this area is often limited by the lack of large, representative, and highquality application datasets that can support empirical studies and the development of new approaches benefiting XR software processes. In this paper, we introduce XRZoo, a comprehensive and curated dataset of XR applications designed to bridge this gap. XRZoo contains 12,528 free XR applications, spanning nine app stores, across all XR techniques (i.e., AR, MR, and VR) and use cases, with detailed metadata on key aspects such as application descriptions, application categories, release dates, user review numbers, and hardware specifications, etc. By making XRZoo publicly available, we aim to foster reproducible XR software engineering and security research, enable cross-disciplinary investigations, and also support the development of advanced XR systems by providing examples to developers. Our dataset serves as a valuable resource for researchers and practitioners interested in improving the scalability, usability, and effectiveness of XR applications. XRZoo will be released and actively maintained.

This investigation establishes the theoretical and practical limits of signal strength estimate precision for Kolmogorov-Zurbenko periodograms with dynamic smoothing and compares them to those of standard log-periodograms with static smoothing. Previous research has established the sensitivity, accuracy, resolution, and robustness of Kolmogorov-Zurbenko periodograms with dynamic smoothing in estimating signal frequencies. However, the precision with which they estimate signal strength has never been evaluated. To this point, the width of the confidence interval for a signal strength estimate can serve as a criterion for assessing the precision of such estimates: the narrower the confidence interval, the more precise the estimate. The statistical background for confidence intervals of periodograms is presented, followed by candidate functions to compute and plot them when using Kolmogorov-Zurbenko periodograms with dynamic smoothing. Given an identified signal frequency, a static smoothing window and its smoothing window width can be selected such that its confidence interval is narrower and, thus, its signal strength estimate more precise, than that of dynamic smoothing windows, all while maintaining a level of frequency resolution as good as or better than that of a dynamic smoothing window. These findings suggest the need for a two-step protocol in spectral analysis: computation of a Kolmogorov-Zurbenko periodogram with dynamic smoothing to detect, identify, and separate signal frequencies, followed by computation of a Kolmogorov-Zurbenko periodogram with static smoothing to precisely estimate signal strength and compute its confidence intervals.

Symbolic regression (SR) is a powerful machine learning approach that searches for both the structure and parameters of algebraic models, offering interpretable and compact representations of complex data. Unlike traditional regression methods, SR explores progressively complex feature spaces, which can uncover simple models that generalize well, even from small datasets. Among SR algorithms, the Sure Independence Screening and Sparsifying Operator (SISSO) has proven particularly effective in the natural sciences, helping to rediscover fundamental physical laws as well as discover new interpretable equations for materials property modeling. However, its widespread adoption has been limited by performance inefficiencies and the challenges posed by its FORTRAN-based implementation, especially in modern computing environments. In this work, we introduce TorchSISSO, a native Python implementation built in the PyTorch framework. TorchSISSO leverages GPU acceleration, easy integration, and extensibility, offering a significant speed-up and improved accuracy over the original. We demonstrate that TorchSISSO matches or exceeds the performance of the original SISSO across a range of tasks, while dramatically reducing computational time and improving accessibility for broader scientific applications.

As MLLMs continue to shape the future of healthcare, understanding their potential and limitations is crucial for their responsible and effective integration into medical practice.

Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) is transforming the field of Artificial Intelligence (AI) by enhancing the trust of end-users in machines. As the number of connected devices keeps on growing, the Internet of Things (IoT) market needs to be trustworthy for the end-users. However, existing literature still lacks a systematic and comprehensive survey work on the use of XAI for IoT. To bridge this lacking, in this paper, we address the XAI frameworks with a focus on their characteristics and support for IoT. We illustrate the widely-used XAI services for IoT applications, such as security enhancement, Internet of Medical Things (IoMT), Industrial IoT (IIoT), and Internet of City Things (IoCT). We also suggest the implementation choice of XAI models over IoT systems in these applications with appropriate examples and summarize the key inferences for future works. Moreover, we present the cutting-edge development in edge XAI structures and the support of sixth-generation (6G) communication services for IoT applications, along with key inferences. In a nutshell, this paper constitutes the first holistic compilation on the development of XAI-based frameworks tailored for the demands of future IoT use cases.

We introduce a multi-task setup of identifying and classifying entities, relations, and coreference clusters in scientific articles. We create SciERC, a dataset that includes annotations for all three tasks and develop a unified framework called Scientific Information Extractor (SciIE) for with shared span representations. The multi-task setup reduces cascading errors between tasks and leverages cross-sentence relations through coreference links. Experiments show that our multi-task model outperforms previous models in scientific information extraction without using any domain-specific features. We further show that the framework supports construction of a scientific knowledge graph, which we use to analyze information in scientific literature.
