2. Security enhanced CLS and CL-AS scheme without pairings for VANETsAnjali Bansal, Saru Kumari, Nishant Doshi, Mohammed Amoon, Marko Hölbl, 2025, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: While vehicle ad-hoc networks (VANETs) have many advantages, they also present privacy and security concerns. Certificate management issue has been seen in traditional public key infrastructure based privacy preserving authentication schemes while key escrow problem exists in identity based privacy preserving authentication techniques. Also existing cryptographic techniques rely heavily on assumptions about tamper-proof equipment to ensure their security. A proposal has been made for a certificateless aggregate signature system for VANETs addressing these issue and was proved provably unforgeable against collusion attack. However we found that the proposed technique was insecure and cannot withstand collusion assault. Therefore, this paper presents an improved and secure certificateless aggregate signature technique for VANETs. We also illustrate the security & performance evaluation of our presented technique and based upon the hardness assumption of the elliptic curve discrete logarithm problem we have shown that the technique is safe against existential forgery on adaptive chosen message attack in the random oracle model. Also the presented technique has better efficiency compared to some recent existing authentication techniques.

4. Enhancing trust in automated 3D point cloud data interpretation through explainable counterfactualsAndreas Holzinger, Niko Lukač, Dzemail Rozajac, Emil Johnston, Veljka Kocic, Bernhard Hoerl, Christoph Gollob, Arne Nothdurft, Karl Stampfer, Stefan Schweng, Javier Del Ser, 2025, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: This paper introduces a novel framework for augmenting explainability in the interpretation of point cloud data by fusing expert knowledge with counterfactual reasoning. Given the complexity and voluminous nature of point cloud datasets, derived predominantly from LiDAR and 3D scanning technologies, achieving interpretability remains a significant challenge, particularly in smart cities, smart agriculture, and smart forestry. This research posits that integrating expert knowledge with counterfactual explanations – speculative scenarios illustrating how altering input data points could lead to different outcomes – can significantly reduce the opacity of deep learning models processing point cloud data. The proposed optimization-driven framework utilizes expert-informed ad-hoc perturbation techniques to generate meaningful counterfactual scenarios when employing state-of-the-art deep learning architectures. The optimization process minimizes a multi-criteria objective comprising counterfactual metrics such as similarity, validity, and sparsity, which are specifically tailored for point cloud datasets. These metrics provide a quantitative lens for evaluating the interpretability of the counterfactuals. Furthermore, the proposed framework allows for the definition of explicit interpretable counterfactual perturbations at its core, thereby involving the audience of the model in the counterfactual generation pipeline and ultimately, improving their overall trust in the process. Results demonstrate a notable improvement in both the interpretability of the model’s decisions and the actionable insights delivered to end-users. Additionally, the study explores the role of counterfactual reasoning, coupled with expert input, in enhancing trustworthiness and enabling human-in-the-loop decision-making processes. By bridging the gap between complex data interpretations and user comprehension, this research advances the field of explainable AI, contributing to the development of transparent, accountable, and human-centered artificial intelligence systems.

7. Radiotherapy department supported by an optimization algorithm for scheduling patient appointmentsMarcela Chavez, Silvia Gonzalez, Ruiz Alvaro, Duflot Patrick, Nicolas Jansen, Izidor Mlakar, Umut Arioz, Valentino Šafran, Philippe Kolh, Van Gasteren Marteyn, 2025, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: Prompt administration of radiotherapy (RT) is one of the most effective treatments against cancer. Eachday, the radiotherapy departments of large hospitals must plan numerous irradiation sessions, con-sidering the availability of human and material resources, such as healthcare professionals and linearaccelerators. With the increasing number of patients suffering from different types of cancers, manuallyestablishing schedules following each patient’s treatment protocols has become an extremely difficultand time-consuming task. We propose an optimization algorithm that automatically schedules andgenerates patient appointments. The model can rearrange fixed appointments to accommodate urgentcases, enabling hospitals to schedule appointments more efficiently.

8. The approach of using a horizontally layered soil model for inhomogeneous soil, by taking into account the deeper layers of the soil, and determining the model’s parameters using evolutionary methodsMarko Jesenik, Mislav Trbušić, 2025, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: A new approach using a horizontally layered analytical soil model for inhomogeneous soil is presented. The presented approach also considers deeper soil layers, which is not the case when simply dividing the area of interest into smaller subareas. The finite element method model was used to prepare test data because, in such a case, the soil parameters are known. Six lines simulating Wenner’s method were used, and their results were combined appropriately to determine the soil parameters of nine subareas. To determine the soil parameters in the scope of each subarea, different optimization methods were used and compared to each other. The results were analyzed, and Artificial Bee Colony was selected as the most appropriate method among those tested. Additionally, the convergence of the methods was analyzed, and Memory Assistance is presented, with the aim of shortening the calculation time. In this study, three-, four-, five-, and six-layered soil models were tested, and it is concluded that the three-layered model is most appropriate. A finite element method model based on the soil determination results was constructed to verify the results. The results of the Wenner’s method simulation in the cases of the test data and final model were compared to confirm the accuracy of the presented method Ključne besede: grounding system, soil model, finite element method, differential evolution, artificial bee colony, teaching–learning-based optimization Objavljeno v DKUM: 21.02.2025; Ogledov: 0; Prenosov: 2

9. Exploring the feasibility of generative AI in persona research : a omparative analysis of large language model-generated and human-crafted personas in obesity researchUrška Smrke, Ana Rehberger, Nejc Plohl, Izidor Mlakar, 2025, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: This study investigates the perceptions of Persona descriptions generated using three different large language models (LLMs) and qualitatively developed Personas by an expert panel involved in obesity research. Six different Personas were defined, three from the clinical domain and three from the educational domain. The descriptions of Personas were generated using qualitative methods and the LLMs (i.e., Bard, Llama, and ChatGPT). The perception of the developed Personas was evaluated by experts in the respective fields. The results show that, in general, the perception of Personas did not significantly differ between those generated using LLMs and those qualitatively developed by human experts. This indicates that LLMs have the potential to generate a consistent and valid representation of human stakeholders. The LLM-generated Personas were perceived as believable, relatable, and informative. However, post-hoc comparisons revealed some differences, with descriptions generated using the Bard model being in several Persona descriptions that were evaluated most favorably in terms of empathy, likability, and clarity. This study contributes to the understanding of the potential and challenges of LLM-generated Personas. Although the study focuses on obesity research, it highlights the importance of considering the specific context and the potential issues that researchers should be aware of when using generative AI for generating Personas.
