Three Roles, One Model: Role Orchestration at Inference Time to Close the Performance Gap Between Small and Large Agents
S. Aaron McClendon, Jorge Gallego-Feliciano, Stavros Zervoudakis +1
Large language model (LLM) agents show promise on realistic tool-use tasks, but deploying capable agents on modest hardware remains challenging. We study whether inference-time sca…
The Opaque Pointer Design Pattern in Python: Towards a Pythonic PIMPL for Modularity, Encapsulation, and Stability
Antonios Saravanos, John Pazarzis, Stavros Zervoudakis +1
Python libraries often need to maintain a stable public API even as internal implementations evolve, gain new backends, or depend on heavy optional libraries. In Python, where inte…
Hidden Dynamics of Massive Activations in Transformer Training
Jorge Gallego-Feliciano, S. Aaron McClendon, Juan Morinelli +2
We present the first comprehensive analysis of massive activation development throughout transformer training, using the Pythia model family as our testbed, and release our full da…
Reputation, Risk, and Trust on User Adoption of Internet Search Engines: The Case of DuckDuckGo
Antonios Saravanos, Stavros Zervoudakis, Dongnanzi Zheng +7
This paper investigates the determinants of end-user adoption of the DuckDuckGo search engine coupling the standard UTAUT model with factors to reflect reputation, risk, and trust.…
Investigating End-user Acceptance of Last-mile Delivery by Autonomous Vehicles in the United States
Antonios Saravanos, Olivia Verni, Ian Moore +7
This paper investigates the end-user acceptance of last-mile delivery carried out by autonomous vehicles within the United States. A total of 296 participants were presented with i…
Extending the Technology Acceptance Model 3 to Incorporate the Phenomenon of Warm-Glow
Antonios Saravanos, Stavros Zervoudakis, Dongnanzi Zheng
In this paper, we extend the third evolution of the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM3) to incorporate warm-glow with the aim of understanding the role this phenomenon plays on user…
Measuring Consumer Perceived Warm-Glow for Technology Adoption Modeling
Antonios Saravanos, Dongnanzi Zheng, Stavros Zervoudakis
In this paper, we adapt and validate two constructs-perceived extrinsic warm-glow (PEWG) and perceived intrinsic warm-glow (PIWG)-to measure the two dimensions of consumer perceive…
Exploring the Effect of Resolution on the Usability of Locimetric Authentication
Antonios Saravanos, Dongnanzi Zheng, Stavros Zervoudakis +1
Locimetric authentication is a form of graphical authentication in which users validate their identity by selecting predetermined points on a predetermined image. Its primary advan…
The Hidden Cost of Using Amazon Mechanical Turk for Research
Antonios Saravanos, Stavros Zervoudakis, Dongnanzi Zheng +3
In this study, we investigate the attentiveness exhibited by participants sourced through Amazon Mechanical Turk (MTurk), thereby discovering a significant level of inattentiveness…
