Srimonti Dutta, Akshata Kishore Moharir
Agentic AI systems retrieve private context, invoke tools, write files, call external services, coordinate with other agents, and may act without human approval. Existing bill of m…
Stability vs. Manipulability: Evaluating Robustness Under Post-Decision Interaction in LLM Judges
Srimonti Dutta, Akshata Kishore Moharir
LLM-as-judge evaluation is widely used in benchmarking pipelines, where model outputs are compared and ranked using automated evaluators. These pipelines typically assume that judg…
Designing Explainable Conversational Agentic Systems for Guaranà Speakers
Samantha Adorno, Akshata Kishore Moharir, Ratna Kandala
Although artificial intelligence (AI) and Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) systems are often presented as universal solutions, their design remains predominantly text-first, unders…

Ratna Kandala, Niva Manchanda, Akshata Kishore Moharir
Online dating has become the dominant way romantic relationships begin, yet current platforms strip the nonverbal cues: gaze, facial expression, body posture, response timing, that…
Disentangling Recall and Reasoning in Transformer Models through Layer-wise Attention and Activation Analysis
Harshwardhan Fartale, Ashish Kattamuri, Rahul Raja +3
Transformer-based language models excel at both recall (retrieving memorized facts) and reasoning (performing multi-step inference), but whether these abilities rely on distinct in…
EchoGuard: An Agentic Framework with Knowledge-Graph Memory for Detecting Manipulative Communication in Longitudinal Dialogue
Ratna Kandala, Niva Manchanda, Akshata Kishore Moharir +1
Manipulative communication, such as gaslighting, guilt-tripping, and emotional coercion, is often difficult for individuals to recognize. Existing agentic AI systems lack the struc…
