Youthometre- Post COVID19 Indian youth mindset survey-2020

kaustav sengupta

The first-ever comprehensive Post COVID19 ‘State-of-the-Mind’ youth report of India got publshed today. This primary data based report is developed by the 25 of Post Graduate students under my guidance. More than 500 respondents (Millennial and Gen Z) from across the nation participated in this deep dive study maintaining safety measures as prescribed by GOI. Prior to this report, no effort was published in India to understand the youth-psychology that will emerge post lockdown. I strongly feel that this report will help many retailers to re-strategize their youth-oriented product approach. The organizations will benefit by understanding the youth mindset and implement the policies accordingly.

Aesthetics ppt

kaustav sengupta

The document discusses various aspects of aesthetics and beauty. It defines beauty as providing a perceptual experience of pleasure, meaning, and satisfaction. It states that beauty can be found in people, places, objects, ideas, and everything in nature. The perception of beauty is subjective and depends on factors like culture, resources, function, and symbols. It discusses the sources of inner and outer beauty in people. The document also explores the human tendency to beautify oneself and the environment. It defines aesthetics as the study and appreciation of beauty. Aesthetic experiences can come from interacting with products and environmental settings using our various senses. Finally, it provides examples of aesthetics in different domains like art, music, literature, films

Aesthetics (part II)

kaustav sengupta

This document discusses various aspects of aesthetics including formal, expressive, and symbolic qualities. It explains that while sensory stimulation is important for aesthetic experience, arousing emotions and expressing feelings through objects are also key factors. Aesthetic experience can provide pleasure to the body through the senses, stimulation to the mind through cognitive processes, and satisfaction to the soul by expressing or evoking feelings. Both aesthetic and instrumental values can be derived from the qualities of objects and environments. Aesthetic value provides non-utilitarian pleasure and satisfaction, while instrumental value results from achieving goals beyond aesthetics, such as comfort, efficiency, or attractiveness.

zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex Proofs

Alex Pruden

This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI support

Alan Dix

Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024 https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/ As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdf

Paige Cruz

Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack. While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack. I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software Fuzzing

Aftab Hussain

Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process. In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds. - These are slides of the talk given at IEEE International Conference on Software Testing Verification and Validation Workshop, ICSTW 2022.
