2025In this paper, we present a novel algorithm for probabilistically updating and rasterizing semantic maps within 3D Gaussian Splatting (3D-GS). Although previous methods have introduced algorithms which learn to rasterize features in 3D-GS for enhanced scene understanding, 3D-GS can fail without warning which presents a challenge for safety-critical robotic applications. To address this gap, we propose a

IEEE Transactions on Artificial Intelligence2025Privacy and fairness are two crucial pillars of responsible Artificial Intelligence (AI) and trustworthy Machine Learning (ML). Each objective has been independently studied in the literature with the aim of reducing utility loss in achieving them. Despite the significant interest attracted from both academia and industry, there remains an immediate demand for more in-depth research to unravel how these

CLeaR 20252025Which set of features was responsible for a certain output of a machine learning model? Which components caused the failure of a cloud computing application? These are just two examples of questions we are addressing in this work by Identifying Coalition-based Explanations for Common and Rare Events in Any Model (ICECREAM). Specifically, we propose an information-theoretic quantitative measure for the influence

Frontiers in Artificial Intelligence2025As we become increasingly dependent on technology in our daily lives, the usability of HCIs is a key driver of individual empowerment for us all. A primary focus of AI systems has been to make HCIs easier to use by identifying what users need and agentively taking over some of the cognitive work users would have otherwise performed, as such, they are becoming our delegates. To become effective and reliable

2025Autonomy via agents based on large language models (LLMs) that can carry out personalized yet standardized tasks presents a significant opportunity to drive human efficiency. There is an emerging need and interest in automating web tasks (e.g., booking a hotel for a given date within a budget). Being a practical use case itself, the web agent also serves as an important proof-of-concept example for various
