Summary: With the increasing use of wearable devices with embedded sensors, there is potential for modeling individual emotional and mental state variations. While there have been studies exploring digital behavior differences between groups with and without mental disorders, the interaction between physiological states and affective states within a predominantly depressive population remains to be studied. This study proposes models that leverage multiple raw signal-to-image transformations to predict depression severity and affective state, and evaluates them using a dataset.

Summary: There is a lack of information in Hungary about pig production technologies and changes since 2005, as well as the number of pigs kept in different categories. Our research team conducted a survey of pig farms to assess housing and manure management technologies in 2005 and 2015. The survey resulted in a database of practices in Hungarian pig production and a tool for farmers to calculate ammonia emissions.

Summary: In this research, a comprehensive approach was taken to generate personality descriptors for CAI agents, resulting in 235 unique descriptors grouped into 8 personality dimensions. The study found that the personality traits of these agents have significant effects on the relationship and usage scenario, with different personality types leading to different types of relationships. There is a conceptual difference between love for AI and love for brands. The findings of this research not only contribute to the creation of suitable machine personalities for AI-based agents, but also provide a unique perspective on the adoption of emerging AI technologies by exploring the aspect of love between humans and machines.

Summary: Stress can worsen age-related diseases in older adults and reduce their quality of life. To address this issue, this paper presents a context-aware stress detection method for older adults using machine learning and cortisol biomarker. The proposed machine learning model classifies stress levels based on data from EDA, BVP, and IBI sensors, with context features captured from the TSST protocol. The results demonstrate that the context-aware machine learning model outperforms the model without context, achieving high accuracy and F1-score in distinguishing different stress levels.

Summary: Proposing the Tree-based Directed Acyclic Graph (TDAG) partitioning method for quantum circuits, which partitions circuits based on binary trees and selects the tree with the most gates. TDAG achieves comparable partitioning quality (number of partitions) to ScanPartitioner (an exhaustive search algorithm) with a 95% average reduction in execution time. Furthermore, compared to the faster QuickPartitioner method, TDAG improves partition quality by 38% with minimal overhead in execution time.

Summary: Controller Area Network (CAN) is widely used in 3D printer communication, but single-bus CAN network designs have vulnerabilities like hijacking, denial-of-service, and eavesdropping. To address these issues, we propose a hierarchical tree-based design that protects the CAN bus and isolates critical systems. By organizing ASCON-encrypted network routing into smaller, authenticated CAN subnets, modular 3D printers can maintain the integrity, confidentiality, and authenticity of all traffic. Our preliminary results show 88-99% hardware efficiency between pre-existing client nodes and total nodes after conversion to our framework.

Summary: Approximate computing is used to improve the noise resilience of quantum adder circuits in NISQ quantum computing, reducing circuit depth and improving fidelity. Five designs of approximate quantum adders are proposed, with three designs including carryout and two without carryout. Experimental results show that the proposed approximate adders have improved fidelity ranging from 8.34% to 219.22% compared to exact quantum ripple carry adder without carryout, and from 8.23% to 371% compared to exact quantum ripple carry adder with carryout. The proposed approximate quantum adders are also evaluated using various error metrics.
