AI agents open new security front for Kenyan businesses

Kenyan businesses are moving from using artificial intelligence (AI) for simple tasks like answering customer questions to deploying systems that can execute tasks on their behalf, and experts point to an emerging cybersecurity challenge - how to protect the digital identities and privileges granted to these AI agents.

A Unified Framework for Image-to-3D Part Generation via Variable Granularity

Controllable 3D part generation is pivotal for digital asset creation, yet existing methods lack the flexibility to accommodate diverse user workflows requiring varying levels of control. In this paper, we introduce FlexPart, a unified image-to-3D part generation framework that supports variable-granularity geometric conditions within a single model. By seamlessly integrating heterogeneous inputs, ranging from sparse points to dense bounding boxes and masks, via gated adaptive modulation, FlexPart unlocks a powerful cross-modal synergy. We also propose an asymmetric geometric guidance mechanism that leverages strong spatial priors to align representations across granularities, improving geometric consistency and facilitating inter-task synergy. Under mask conditioning on PartVerseXL, FlexPart reduces Part CD by 16.6% relative to TripoSG + SAM3D and by 10.5% relative to OmniPart, while maintaining competitive whole-mesh quality. The code can be found at https://github.com/Gucci233/FlexPart

Algorithmic Collusion and the Complexity of Information-Value-Free Equilibria

A (coarse) correlated equilibrium (CE) is information-value-free (IVF) if a player can match the payoff obtained from recommendations by committing to a fixed action. Motivated by the problem of regulating algorithmic collusion, this refinement was introduced by Hartline, Wang,…

Towards Robust Classroom Attendance: A Comprehensive Evaluation of Face Detection and Recognition Models

Manual attendance methods, such as paper or register-based systems, take a lot of time, can lead to errors, and are easy to falsify. Face recognition is more reliable, but it frequently struggles in classrooms because lighting and other conditions can vary. Face recognition…

Beyond Raw Engagement: A Counterfactual Observability Framework for Recommender Systems at Netflix

Understanding the performance of large-scale recommender systems remains an underexplored challenge, especially for content creators and model developers. The raw engagement signals available to them, such as views and clicks, conflate content quality, model behavior,…
