Decision-Level Fusion for Robust Wearable Affect Recognition

Automatic recognition of affective state from wearable physiology has clear societal impact for public health, preventive care, and stress-aware interventions, but real deployments require robustness to non-stationary dynamics, artefacts, and missing sensors. We study this problem on WESAD, using baseline, stress, and amusement conditions, where common fixed-basis spectral features such as FFT bandpower and Welch PSD can oversmooth short-lived discriminative patterns. We propose a non-stationary pipeline that combines Fourier-Bessel Series Expansion (FBSE) with EWT data-driven spectral segmentation to extract mode-wise transient descriptors. For multimodal integration, we adopt decision-level aggregation over per-modality predictors and weight each modality by predictive uncertainty and modality reliability. Results on WESAD, using 15 subjects and ECG, EDA, BVP, EMG, and ACC signals across three classes, indicate that decision-level aggregation is approximately 84 percent of the time at least as good as feature-level aggregation, and approximately 48 percent of the time strictly better, suggesting improved robustness under heterogeneous and partially reliable sensing.

Stop Reducing Responsibility in LLM-Powered Multi-Agent Systems to Local Alignment

LLM-powered Multi-Agent Systems (LLM-MAS) unlock new potentials in distributed reasoning, collaboration, and task generalization but also introduce additional risks due to unguaranteed agreement, cascading uncertainty, and adversarial vulnerabilities. We argue that ensuring responsible behavior in such systems requires a paradigm shift: from local, superficial agent-level alignment to global, systemic agreement. We conceptualize responsibility not as a static constraint but as a lifecycle-wide property encompassing agreement, uncertainty, and security, each requiring the complementary integration of subjective human-centered values and objective verifiability. Furthermore, a dual-perspective governance framework that combines interdisciplinary design with human-AI collaborative oversight is essential for tracing and ensuring responsibility throughout the lifecycle of LLM-MAS. Our position views LLM-MAS not as loose collections of agents, but as unified, dynamic socio-technical systems that demand principled mechanisms to support each dimension of responsibility and enable ethically aligned, verifiably coherent, and resilient behavior for sustained, system-wide agreement.

Embodied AI in Social Spaces: Responsible and Adaptive Robots in Complex Setting -- UKAIRS 2025 (Copy)

This paper introduces and overviews a multidisciplinary project aimed at developing responsible and adaptive multi-human multi-robot (MHMR) systems for complex, dynamic settings. The project integrates co-design, ethical frameworks, and multimodal sensing to create AI-driven robots that are emotionally responsive, context-aware, and aligned with the needs of diverse users. We outline the project's vision, methodology, and early outcomes, demonstrating how embodied AI can support sustainable, ethical, and human-centred futures.

Position: Towards a Responsible LLM-empowered Multi-Agent Systems

The rise of Agent AI and Large Language Model-powered Multi-Agent Systems (LLM-MAS) has underscored the need for responsible and dependable system operation. Tools like LangChain and Retrieval-Augmented Generation have expanded LLM capabilities, enabling deeper integration into MAS through enhanced knowledge retrieval and reasoning. However, these advancements introduce critical challenges: LLM agents exhibit inherent unpredictability, and uncertainties in their outputs can compound across interactions, threatening system stability. To address these risks, a human-centered design approach with active dynamic moderation is essential. Such an approach enhances traditional passive oversight by facilitating coherent inter-agent communication and effective system governance, allowing MAS to achieve desired outcomes more efficiently.

Linearization for difference equations with infinite delay

In this article, we construct a conjugacy map for a linear difference equation with infinite delay and corresponding nonlinear perturbation. We also prove that the conjugacy map is one-one with some additional conditions. As an application of our result, we show that the cases of (uniform) exponential dichotomy follow from our result.
