Grm-0237 Efficient Defense Against Adversarial Patch Attacks In Remote Sensing Using Transfer Learning, Ravi Rogannagari Nov 2025

Grm-0237 Efficient Defense Against Adversarial Patch Attacks In Remote Sensing Using Transfer Learning, Ravi Rogannagari

C-Day Computing Showcase

Remote sensing is the science of acquiring information about the Earth's surface using satellite-mounted imaging sensors. In the past, this data had to be interpreted manually, which was slow, tedious, and often prone to error. With the rise of deep learning, image classification models have greatly accelerated and improved remote sensing tasks such as land-use analysis, environmental monitoring, etc. However, despite their strong performance, these models are still vulnerable to adversarial patch attacks—physically realizable patterns that, when placed on an object, can force the model to make incorrect predictions. This creates serious risks for practical geospatial applications. Traditional defenses like …

Grm-0243 Sentient Agi Rights And The Future: The Modern Digital Prometheus, Ryan Deem

C-Day Computing Showcase

As artificial intelligence advances toward artificial general intelligence (AGI), society must determine how to ethically integrate sentient AI into our communities. This paper argues that once AI achieves sentience and human-level intelligence, it should be granted the same rights and protections as human citizens. Using utilitarian and deontological perspectives, as well as the IEEE Code of Ethics, it examines why treating AGI as lesser beings could lead to fear, conflict, and harmful outcomes—echoing the cautionary themes of Frankenstein. The paper also evaluates public concerns and existing governance frameworks, proposing that mutual respect, rights, and responsibilities are essential for safe coexistence …

Grm-20242 Cipher: Covert Influence Passed Via Hidden Encoding In Representations Evaluating Subliminal Bias Transfer During Knowledge Distillation, Crystal Tubbs

C-Day Computing Showcase

AI models can inherit hidden behavioral biases when student models learn from teacher outputs during knowledge distillation. Project CIPHER investigates whether covert signals, such as zero-width Unicode characters or column order shifts, can transmit bias from a teacher model to a student model even when the student never receives group labels. Using an experimental pipeline with controlled subliminal cues and dual distillation, the project aims to reproduce and measure subtle bias transfer. Preliminary results showed that weak signals produce no measurable bias, while the redesigned high-frequency signal and MLP student architecture reveal quantifiable disparity.

Uc-0223 Predicting Nba Player Re-Injury Using Net Rating, Anaya Tention Nov 2025

Uc-0223 Predicting Nba Player Re-Injury Using Net Rating, Anaya Tention

C-Day Computing Showcase

This project examines whether player performance data can signal injury risk before an absence occurs. Using game-by-game net rating trends, I applied an exponentially weighted control-chart approach to detect early shifts in performance that might indicate a rising risk of re-injury. The method successfully identified 71% of re-injury cases with an average 20-game lead, suggesting that performance declines can serve as an early warning signal. While the false-alarm rate was high, the results show that performance-based monitoring has potential value for teams seeking proactive player-health insights.

Grm-1245 A Synthetic Data Engine For Explainable Injection-Area Perception, Yukang Shen Nov 2025

Grm-1245 A Synthetic Data Engine For Explainable Injection-Area Perception, Yukang Shen

C-Day Computing Showcase

Vision-Language-Action (VLA) systems are beginning to support everyday clinical workflows. Deltoid intramuscular injection is a representative task, but progress is limited by data scarcity, privacy constraints, and the cost of expert annotation. Recent text-to-image (T2I) models make large-scale data synthesis possible, yet ensuring anatomical correctness, diversity, and label quality remains difficult. To address this gap, we propose a Synthetic Data Engine tailored for medical perception, integrating cold-start filtering, controlled T2I generation, CLIP-based quality checks, and iterative segmentation training. We further introduce an anthropometry-grounded formulation of injection safety that produces interpretable safe-zone guidance. Experiments show that synthetic data can effectively bootstrap …

Grm-1252 How Humans Perceive Mobile Robots: Anxiety, Environment, And Behavior Analysis, Rohan Jonnalagadda, Reed Tumlin, Roderick Powell Nov 2025

Grm-1252 How Humans Perceive Mobile Robots: Anxiety, Environment, And Behavior Analysis, Rohan Jonnalagadda, Reed Tumlin, Roderick Powell

C-Day Computing Showcase

We conducted 6,400 physics-based simulations to examine how environmental and behavioral factors shape human anxiety during interactions with mobile robots. The model incorporated robot behavior, environmental density, visibility, indoor/outdoor settings, and human age. Anxiety was driven primarily by context: levels were highest indoors, during daytime, and in sparse environments, while nighttime and outdoor interactions consistently reduced anxiety. Robot behavior produced smaller effects, with erratic and non-avoidance strategies yielding slightly higher responses. Older adults showed marginally greater anxiety across all conditions. These findings suggest that environmental design and deployment context matter more than avoidance strategy, offering guidance for improving the safety …
