Proceedings of the Austrian Symposium on AI, Robotics, and Vision, 3(1), pp. 26–30.

SUMMARY

Investigates when diagnostic language models follow an incorrect user hypothesis despite contrary clinical evidence. Using MedQA-based prompts, the study tests authority cues, repeated pushback and prompting interventions across three models. Multi-reason Devil’s Advocate prompts reduce sycophancy, while resilience weakens during persistent multi-turn pressure.

AUTHORS

Nathanya Q. Satriani.

PUBLISHED IN

Proceedings of the Austrian Symposium on AI, Robotics, and Vision, 3(1), pp. 12–16.

SUMMARY

Examines whether apparently strong IBS classification results reflect biological signal or overfitting. A four-stage workflow combines leakage checks, consistent preprocessing, learning curves and SHAP explanations on a small biomedical cohort. Resampling exposes unstable performance, while metabolite attributions suggest biologically plausible signals that require cautious interpretation.

PUBLISHED IN

Proceedings of the 22nd IEEE International Conference on Content-Based Multimedia Indexing (CBMI 2025), pp. 1–8.

SUMMARY

Studies how feedback on model explanations can reduce spurious correlations in visual gender classification. It compares CAIPI, Right for the Right Reasons and a hybrid approach, evaluated using GradCAM and Bounded Logit Attention. The findings highlight fairness–accuracy trade-offs and CAIPI’s potential to improve both relevant feature use and classification performance.

SUMMARY

Presents the AIT_FHSTP team’s systems for detecting and categorizing sexism in English and Spanish social-media text. The approaches combine XLM-RoBERTa with sentiment, toxicity and hand-crafted features, PCA and Random Forest classification. The team achieved first place for Spanish and second for English on the task-2 soft–soft source-intention evaluation.

Investigates when diagnostic language models follow an incorrect user hypothesis despite contrary clinical evidence. Using MedQA-based prompts, the study tests authority cues, repeated pushback and prompting interventions across three models. Multi-reason Devil’s Advocate prompts reduce sycophancy, while resilience weakens during persistent multi-turn pressure.

SUMMARY

Examines whether apparently strong IBS classification results reflect biological signal or overfitting. A four-stage workflow combines leakage checks, consistent preprocessing, learning curves and SHAP explanations on a small biomedical cohort. Resampling exposes unstable performance, while metabolite attributions suggest biologically plausible signals that require cautious interpretation.

SUMMARY

Studies how feedback on model explanations can reduce spurious correlations in visual gender classification. It compares CAIPI, Right for the Right Reasons and a hybrid approach, evaluated using GradCAM and Bounded Logit Attention. The findings highlight fairness–accuracy trade-offs and CAIPI’s potential to improve both relevant feature use and classification performance.

SUMMARY

Presents the AIT_FHSTP team’s systems for detecting and categorizing sexism in English and Spanish social-media text. The approaches combine XLM-RoBERTa with sentiment, toxicity and hand-crafted features, PCA and Random Forest classification. The team achieved first place for Spanish and second for English on the task-2 soft–soft source-intention evaluation.
