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…
ADS-C: Antidistillation Sampling for Classification
Khawaja Abaid Ullah, Mohammad Javad Khojasteh
Knowledge distillation enables an adversary to replicate a proprietary classifier by querying its prediction interface and training a surrogate on the returned probability vectors.…
Capture, Shield, or Neutralize: Engagement-Aware Pursuit-Evasion
Ananya Acharya, Trenton Goyette, Masoud Ataei +3
The paper presents a hierarchical control framework that combines an iterative minimax model predictive control (MPC) game with a control barrier function (CBF) safety filter to en…
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…
Distance-Aware Error for Spline Networks: A Bottom-Up Approach to Uncertainty
Masoud Ataei, Mohammad Javad Khojasteh, Vikas Dhiman
We develop a new class of distance-aware error bounds that tightly characterize the approximation error of spline neural networks. Our bottom-up approach analyzes the error bound o…
Stabilizing a linear system using phone calls when time is information
Mohammad Javad Khojasteh, Massimo Franceschetti, Gireeja Ranade
We consider the problem of stabilizing an undisturbed, scalar, linear system over a "timing" channel, namely a channel where information is communicated through the timestamps of t…
