Fail-safe - Wikipedia
mitigates unsafe consequences of the system's failure. If and when a "fail-safe" system fails, it remains at least as safe as it was before the failure. Since
Working with Trouble and Failures in Conversation between Humans and Robots (WTF 2023) & I…
Workshop proceedings of two co-located workshops "Working with Troubles and Failures in Conversation with Humans and Robots" (WTF 2023) and "Is CUI Design Ready Yet?", both of which were part of the ACM conference on conversational user interfaces 20...
Is it personal? The impact of personally relevant robotic failures (PeRFs) on humans' trus…
In three laboratory experiments, we examine the impact of personally relevant failures (PeRFs) on perceptions of a collaborative robot. PeR is determined by how much a specific issue applies to a particular person, i.e., it affects one's own goals an...
Mining The Successful Binary Combinations: Methodology and A Simple Case Study
The importance of finding the characteristics leading to either a success or a failure is one of the driving forces of data mining. The various application areas of finding success/failure factors cover vast variety of areas such as credit risk eva...

OpenVoting: Recoverability from Failures in Dual Voting
In this paper we address the problem of recovery from failures without re-running entire elections when elections fail to verify. We consider the setting of \emph{dual voting} protocols, where the cryptographic guarantees of end-to-end verifiable vot...
Preventing Repeated Real World AI Failures by Cataloging Incidents: The AI Incident Databa…
Mature industrial sectors (e.g., aviation) collect their real world failures in incident databases to inform safety improvements. Intelligent systems currently cause real world harms without a collective memory of their failings. As a result, compani...

A Workbench for Testing and Simulation Faults in Three-phase Electric Motors with Intellig…
Electric motors can be damaged or operate improperly from a possible set of failures. Such failures are related to high or very low voltage and current levels, phase loss or blocked rotor. Therefore, it is important to protect these equipments throug...
Fault orientation in damage failure under compression
The Mohr-Coulomb criterion is widely used in geosciences to relate the state of stress at failure to the observed orientation of the resulting faults. This relation is based on the assumption that the fault occurs along a plane that maximizes the Cou...
Guardian: Detecting Robotic Planning and Execution Errors with Vision-Language Models
Robust robotic manipulation requires reliable failure detection and recovery. Although current Vision-Language Models (VLMs) show promise, their accuracy and generalization are limited by the scarcity of failure data. To address this data gap, we pro...
Absence makes the heart grow fonder: social compensation when failure to interact risks we…
Social networks require active relationship maintenance if they are to be kept at a constant level of emotional closeness. For primates, including humans, failure to interact leads inexorably to a decline in relationship quality, and a consequent los...
On $\ell_2$-performance of weakly-hard real-time control systems
This paper considers control systems with failures in the feedback channel, that occasionally lead to loss of the control input signal. A useful approach for modeling such failures is to consider window-based constraints on possible loss sequences, f...

Patient Specific Congestive Heart Failure Detection From Raw ECG signal
In this study; in order to diagnose congestive heart failure (CHF) patients, non-linear second-order difference plot (SODP) obtained from raw 256 Hz sampled frequency and windowed record with different time of ECG records are used. All of the data ro...
A remark on the failure of multiplicity one for GSp(4)
We revisit a classical result of Howe and Pitatski-Shapiro on the failure of strong multiplicity one for $\GSp(4)$....
MTTR-A: Measuring Cognitive Recovery Latency in Multi-Agent Systems
Reliability in multi-agent systems (MAS) built on large language models is increasingly limited by cognitive failures rather than infrastructure faults. Existing observability tools describe failures but do not quantify how quickly distributed reason...
Detour Planning for Fast and Reliable Failure Recovery in SDN with OpenState
A reliable and scalable mechanism to provide protection against a link or node failure has additional requirements in the context of SDN and OpenFlow. Not only it has to minimize the load on the controller, but it must be able to react even when the...
A materials perspective on the design of damage-resilient artificial bones and bone implan…
After more than five decades of research, the failure of bone implants is still an issue that becomes increasingly urgent to solve in our ageing population. Among the reasons for failure, catastrophic brittle fracture is one event that is directly re...
Artificial Neural Network and Rough Set for HV Bushings Condition Monitoring
Most transformer failures are attributed to bushings failures. Hence it is necessary to monitor the condition of bushings. In this paper three methods are developed to monitor the condition of oil filled bushing. Multi-layer perceptron (MLP), Radial...
