Who Receives Respect? A Counterfactual Benchmark for Honorific Allocation Bias in Bengali
Ajwad Abrar, Md Kamrul Hasan, Hasan Mahmud
Bengali has no grammatical gender, but honorificity is obligatory: every third-person reference must choose ordinary or respectful register. English has no such signal, so the syst…
How Do Large Language Models Judge Social Attraction? Evidence from Theory-Grounded Persona Ratings Across Multiple LLMs and Humans
Hasan Mahmud, Khawaja Abaid Ullah, Mohammad Javad Khojasteh +2
Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used to perform subjective evaluations traditionally made by humans, yet their validity as social judges remains unclear. This paper e…
Artificial Intelligence for Mathematical Reasoning: An Integrated Survey of Language Models, Neuro-symbolic Systems, and Verified Discovery
Syed Rifat Raiyan, Mohsinul Kabir, Hasan Mahmud +2
Mathematical reasoning has long served as a stringent test of machine intelligence; over the past decade, it has moved from a niche problem within NLP to one of the most consequent…
When Personalization Becomes Bias: Structural and Discursive Religious Framing in AI-Generated Financial Advice
Muhammad Salar Khan, Hamza Umer, Hasan Mahmud +1
Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly integrated into financial advisory systems, yet their role in reproducing religious bias remains underexamined. This study provides sy…
When Robots Rate Their Own Interactions: Engagement Validity and the Strangeness Failure
Victor Lockwood, Hasan Mahmud, Mohammad Javad Khojasteh +2
Human-robot interaction (HRI) evaluation relies almost exclusively on human-completed questionnaires, leaving the robot's perspective unexamined. We propose an \textit{inverted eva…
LLM-Ideoplasticity: Measuring Ideological Plasticity in the Political Behavior of LLMs as a Context-Conditioned Distribution
Adib Sakhawat, Syed Rifat Raiyan, Tahsin Islam +3
We argue, with systematic empirical evidence, that a large language model's political ideology is not a fixed point, but a conditional distribution positionconte…
Coordinates of Capability: A Unified MTMM-Geometric Framework for LLM Evaluation
Adib Sakhawat, Tahsin Islam, Takia Farhin +3
The evaluation of Large Language Models (LLMs) faces a critical challenge in construct validity, where fragmented benchmarks and ad hoc metrics frequently conflate method variance,…
Beyond Symbolic Solving: Multi Chain-of-Thought Voting for Geometric Reasoning in Large Language Models
Md. Abu Bakor Siddique, Shahrin Hossain, Sadman Ahmed Siam +3
Geometric Problem Solving (GPS) remains at the heart of enhancing mathematical reasoning in large language models because it requires the combination of diagrammatic understanding,…
Courtroom-Style Multi-Agent Debate with Progressive RAG and Role-Switching for Controversial Claim Verification
Masnun Nuha Chowdhury, Nusrat Jahan Beg, Umme Hunny Khan +3
Large language models (LLMs) remain unreliable for high-stakes claim verification due to hallucinations and shallow reasoning. While retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) and multi-…
BanglaLorica: Design and Evaluation of a Robust Watermarking Algorithm for Large Language Models in Bangla Text Generation
Amit Bin Tariqul, A N M Zahid Hossain Milkan, Sahab-Al-Chowdhury +3
As large language models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed for text generation, watermarking has become essential for authorship attribution, intellectual property protection, and m…
Political Alignment in Large Language Models: A Multidimensional Audit of Psychometric Identity and Behavioral Bias
Adib Sakhawat, Tahsin Islam, Takia Farhin +3
As large language models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed, understanding how they express political positioning is important for evaluating alignment and downstream effects. We aud…
Bangla Sign Language Translation: Dataset Creation Challenges, Benchmarking and Prospects
Husne Ara Rubaiyeat, Hasan Mahmud, Md Kamrul Hasan
Bangla Sign Language Translation (BdSLT) has been severely constrained so far as the language itself is very low resource. Standard sentence level dataset creation for BdSLT is of…
BanglaNirTox: A Large-scale Parallel Corpus for Explainable AI in Bengali Text Detoxification
Ayesha Afroza Mohsin, Mashrur Ahsan, Nafisa Maliyat +4
Toxic language in Bengali remains prevalent, especially in online environments, with few effective precautions against it. Although text detoxification has seen progress in high-re…
Are ASR foundation models generalized enough to capture features of regional dialects for low-resource languages?
Tawsif Tashwar Dipto, Azmol Hossain, Rubayet Sabbir Faruque +12
Conventional research on speech recognition modeling relies on the canonical form for most low-resource languages while automatic speech recognition (ASR) for regional dialects is…
CogniAlign: Survivability-Grounded Multi-Agent Moral Reasoning for Safe and Transparent AI
Hasin Jawad Ali, Ilhamul Azam, Ajwad Abrar +2
The challenge of aligning artificial intelligence (AI) with human values persists due to the abstract and often conflicting nature of moral principles and the opacity of existing a…
Prompting with Sign Parameters for Low-resource Sign Language Instruction Generation
Md Tariquzzaman, Md Farhan Ishmam, Saiyma Sittul Muna +2
