Open-Source Intelligence for Code Provenance and the Security Patterns that Separate Human and Large-Language-Model Implementations of Common Programming Tasks
Mohammadreza Rashidi
Developers now draw code from two very different sources, the accumulated human answers on sites such as Stack Overflow and the output of large language models. We ask two question…
Open-Source Intelligence and Music Information Retrieval for Geographic Attribution of Musical Affect and the Ecological Limits of Population Inference
Mohammadreza Rashidi
A common intuition holds that a region's music mirrors the temperament of its people, so that melancholic melodies mark melancholic populations. We test the measurable half of that…
Unicode TAG-Block Concealment of Tool-Metadata Payloads in the Model Context Protocol: An Approval-View Fidelity Gap Across Three Independent Server Implementations
Mohammadreza Rashidi
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is the dominant way coding agents discover and invoke external tools. A server advertises each tool through a tools/list handshake that returns a n…
The Balkanization of Execution-Security Research for AI Coding Agents: Isolation, Access Control, and Time-of-Check-to-Time-of-Use Vulnerabilities
Mohammadreza Rashidi
AI coding agents now read repositories, call tools, and execute shell commands with limited human oversight, and a fast-growing body of work studies whether the execution layer aro…
Benchmark AUC Is Not Deployable Reliability: A Cross-Dataset Audit of Off-the-Shelf Features for Surveillance Video Anomaly Detection
Mohammadreza Rashidi
Automated "suspicious behavior" flagging is a headline promise of AI surveillance, and the field reports high frame-level ROC-AUC on standard video anomaly detection benchmarks. Th…
Empirical Evaluation of Multi-Modal Touch Detection in Over-the-Shoulder Video Surveillance
Mohammadreza Rashidi
Video Intelligence Surveillance (VIDINT) on over-the-shoulder footage is a proposed vector for monitoring human-computer interaction patterns without direct screen recording access…
Structural Role Injection in Handlebars-Templated LLM Prompts: Triple-Brace Interpolation, Delimiter Family, and the Limits of HTML Auto-Escaping
Mohammadreza Rashidi
Large language model applications build prompts from templates, and Handlebars is a widely used templating engine and the default prompt-template format in Microsoft Semantic Kerne…
Depth-Dependent Indirect Prompt Injection in Tool-Calling ReAct Agents: Injection Depth, Payload Framing, and Turn-Budget Sensitivity
Mohammadreza Rashidi
ReAct agents that interleave chain-of-thought reasoning with tool calls are increasingly deployed for real tasks such as scheduling, file retrieval, and data access. Their tool obs…
Deepfake Detection in Social Media: A Temporal Artifact Analysis Using 3D Convolutional Neural Networks
Mohammadreza Rashidi, Raja Hashim Ali, Sami Ur Rahman
Synthetic facial videos have proliferated across social media faster than platform moderation can respond, raising the cost of disinformation and identity-based attacks. Frame-leve…
