We present Risk Atlas Nexus, an open source system for governing AI risks. The system unifies several risk classification frameworks through a common ontology. Given an AI application use case (called an intent), the system estimates risks and associated mitigations that are linked to identified risks. The tool is designed to be incorporated in AI governance workflows where recommendations can be translated to business controls to cover risks arising from AI use in firms.

We present IntelliProof, an interactive system for analyzing argumentative essays through LLMs. IntelliProof structures an essay as an argumentation graph, where claims are represented as nodes, supporting evidence is attached as node properties, and edges encode supporting or attacking relations. Unlike existing automated essay scoring systems, IntelliProof emphasizes the user experience: each relation is initially classified and scored by an LLM, then visualized for enhanced understanding. The system provides justifications for classifications and produces quantitative measures for essay coherence. It enables rapid exploration of argumentative quality while retaining human oversight. In addition, IntelliProof provides a set of tools for a better understanding of an argumentative essay and its corresponding graph in natural language, bridging the gap between the structural semantics of argumentative essays and the user's understanding of a given text.

Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) has become the standard approach for integrating domain knowledge into Large Language Models (LLMs). However, fair comparison of RAG pipelines remains difficult: data preparation is often ad hoc, subsampling methods are opaque, parameters vary across implementations, and evaluation is fragmented. We present In-Situ Eval, a unified and reproducible framework that operationalizes the full RAG pipeline with configurable subsampling strategies and both RAG-specific and generic evaluation metrics. The platform supports two execution modes: an offline Dataset mode for evaluating precomputed outputs, and a live Retrieval mode for benchmarking RAG variants with state-of-the-art LLMs. Users can flexibly select datasets, retrieval techniques, models, and metrics, enabling side-by-side comparisons, ablations, and targeted analyses. This holistic approach reduces computational costs, clarifies the impact of subsampling techniques, and provides actionable insights for real-world deployments. By facilitating transparent, customizable, and interactive benchmarking, In-Situ Eval empowers both researchers and practitioners to make informed decisions in adapting RAG pipelines to domain-specific needs. The demo video is available at https://youtu.be/DoKKwQbclIg. The code is available at https://github.com/Ritvik-G/in-situ_eval/ .

Multi-Agent Path Finding (MAPF) algorithms provide highly optimized solutions for coordinating multiple agents in shared environments, yet their outputs lack explainability to human stakeholders. Existing explanation approaches, such as visual trace segmentation or logic-based reasoning, remain fragmented. In this demo, we present OMEGA, an interactive explanation platform that generates Natural Language (NL) explanations using the novel Multi-Agent Planning Ontology (maPO). Our framework transforms raw MAPF planner execution logs into a semantic knowledge graph, enabling SPARQL-based explanations of collision events, replanning strategies, and efficiency trade-offs. A lightweight web interface allows users to query, visualize, and interpret planner decisions, thereby making MAPF solutions transparent and auditable. We conducted a user study that confirms the ontology-driven explanations are significantly clearer and more preferred than raw logs, underscoring the potential of semantic technologies for explainable multi-agent systems.

We present MemoVision, a digital catalog system that captures semantic, spatial, temporal and interaction information as users move around physical environments using client devices such as smart glasses. The system utilizes open-vocabulary semantic segmentation and 3D scans to store objects-of-interest with comprehensive semantic, spatial, temporal and interaction labels. Our demonstration shows multimodal information query and retrieval capabilities, supporting specific queries about object locations, temporal events and user interactions including eye gaze and hand poses, enabling more contextualized responses compared to current multimodal large language models.

Industrial automation increasingly relies on multi-agent AI, yet evaluation remains difficult due to task complexity and data confidentiality. We present AssetOpsBench-Live, a demo of a competition-ready platform for real-time, privacy-preserving evaluation of multi-agent AI in industrial contexts. The platform integrates AssetOpsBench, which measures six dimensions of multi-agent performance and performs automated failure-mode discovery, with Codabench, which supports reproducible, code-oriented competitions. End users first validate agents locally, then submit containerized code for execution on hidden industrial scenarios. Instead of raw trajectories, the system provides quantitative scores and clustered failure modes (e.g., reasoning--action mismatch, step repetition), enabling participants to identify failures, apply targeted improvements, and iteratively resubmit. By combining competition-based engagement with actionable diagnostics, AssetOpsBench-Live delivers reproducible, real-time insights reflecting real-world industrial constraints.

Capturing expertise and enabling efficient information retrieval are critical in the energy sector, where high staff turnover can lead to significant knowledge loss. Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) offers a solution by grounding Large Language Model (LLM) outputs in documented sources, but its effectiveness is limited by reliance on general purpose embeddings. We present Wikatoni, an agentic AI system for energy engineering workflows that integrates a novel domain specific embedding model. Wikatoni combines fine tuned embeddings with agentic RAG, metadata filtering, and hybrid retrieval to improve document search, automated reporting, and workflow efficiency. Evaluation on internal offshore energy data shows that the domain adapted embedding improves recall by 10\%, and Wikatoni Agentic further increases answer accuracy by 14\% compared to vanilla RAG with the base embedding model, achieving the best overall performance in context recall, faithfulness, and answer accuracy.

Deploying AI on microcontrollers is challenging. We introduce MIMaaS, a Microcontroller-as-a-Service platform that enables users to upload a model, select a target device, and receive a detailed performance report. A key innovation is our measurement of real-world power consumption, alongside latency and memory usage, directly from the physical hardware. MIMaaS empowers researchers and developers to easily create and validate hardware-aware AI models without needing physical hardware access.

Navigating new indoor spaces and interacting with the environment presents many challenges for people who are blind or have low vision (BLV). To address these challenges, we prototyped a smartphone-based conversational assistant that helps BLV people navigate and interact with their environment. The prototype utilizes a cognitive architecture to integrate three different technologies: (i) augmented-reality spatial anchors for high-precision localization and access to static information about the environment; (ii) real-time object/people detection for information about the environment and obstacle avoidance; and (iii) a conversational agent}that uses large language models (LLMs) for information extraction, conversational interaction, and turn-by-turn navigation. We assess the impact of different technologies on human performance by measuring user task time and errors. We found that conversational interaction holistically integrates the different technologies to deliver a better user experience while significantly reducing task completion time.

Navigation and Interaction for Blind Users via a Cognitive Architecture

According to the United States Internal Revenue Service, “the average American spends $270 and 13 hours filing their taxes”. Even beyond the U.S., Tax filing requires complex reasoning, combining application of overlapping rules with numerical calculations. Because errors can incur costly penalties, any automated system must deliver high accuracy and auditability, making modern large language models (LLMs) poorly suited for this task. We propose an approach that integrates LLMs with a symbolic solver to calculate tax obligations. We evaluate variants of this system on the challenging StAtutory Reasoning Assessment (SARA) dataset, and include a novel method for estimating the cost of deploying such a system based on real-world penalties for tax errors. We further show how combining up-front translation of plain-text rules into formal logic programs, combined with intelligently retrieved exemplars for formal case representations, can dramatically improve performance on this task and reduce costs to well below real-world averages. Our results demonstrate the promise and economic feasibility of neuro-symbolic architectures for increasing equitable access to reliable tax assistance.

Language Models and Logic Programs for Trustworthy Tax Reasoning

Ensuring fairness in machine learning requires understanding how sensitive attributes like race or gender causally influence outcomes. Existing causal discovery (CD) methods often struggle to recover fairness-relevant pathways in the presence of noise, confounding, or data corruption. Large language models (LLMs) offer a complementary signal by leveraging semantic priors from variable metadata. We propose a hybrid LLM-guided CD framework that extends a breadth-first search strategy with active learning and dynamic scoring. Variable pairs are prioritized for querying using a composite score combining mutual information, partial correlation, and LLM confidence, enabling more efficient and robust structure discovery. To evaluate fairness sensitivity, we introduce a semi-synthetic benchmark based on the UCI Adult dataset, embedding domain-informed bias pathways alongside noise and latent confounders. We assess how well CD methods recover both global graph structure and fairness-critical paths (e.g., sex→education→income). Our results show that LLM-guided methods—including our active, dynamically scored variant—outperform baselines in recovering fairness-relevant structure under noisy conditions. We analyze when LLM-driven insights complement statistical dependencies and discuss implications for fairness auditing in high-stakes domains.
