arXiv:2603.15004v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Code clone detection (CCD) supports software maintenance, refactoring, and security analysis. Although pre-trained models capture code semantics, most work reduces CCD to binary classification, overlooking the heterogeneity of clone types and the seven fine-grained categories in BigCloneBench. We present Full Model, a multimodal fusion framework that jointly integrates heuristic similarity priors from classical machine learning, structural signals from abstract syntax trees (ASTs), and deep semantic embeddings from CodeBERT into a single predictor. By fusing structural, statistical, and semantic representations, Full Model improves discrimination among fine-grained clone types while keeping inference cost practical. On the seven-class BigCloneBench benchmark, Full Model raises Macro-F1 from 0.695 to 0.875. Ablation studies show that using the primary model's probability distribution as a prior to guide selective arbitration by a large

arXiv:2603.14876v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This research paper outlines the development and implementation of a novel Clinical Decision Support System (CDSS) that integrates AI predictive modeling with medical knowledge bases. It utilizes the quantifiable information elements in lab results for inferring likely diagnoses a patient might have. Subsequently, suggesting investigations to confirm the likely diagnoses -- an assistive tool for physicians. The system fuses knowledge contained in a rule-base expert system with inferences of data driven predictors based on the features in labs. The data for 593,055 patients was collected from 547 primary care centers across the US to model our decision support system and derive Real-Word Evidence (RWE) to make it relevant for a large demographic of patients. Our Rule-Base comprises clinically validated rules, modeling 59 health conditions that can directly confirm one or more of diseases and assign ICD-10 codes to them. The Likely

arXiv:2603.14622v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We present a progress-based fault detection module and its integration with dynamic task allocation for heterogeneous robot teams. The detector monitors a normalized task-completion signal with a lightweight Kalman filter (KF) and a normalized innovation squared (NIS) test, augmented with a low-rate stall gate, an uncertainty gate, and debounce logic. Health estimates influence the allocator via health-weighted costs and health-dependent masks; reallocation is event-triggered and regularized with an $\ell_1$ assignment-change penalty to limit reassignment churn while preserving feasibility through slack variables. The detector has constant per-robot update cost, and the allocation remains a convex quadratic program (QP). Experiments on a common team-task setup evaluate measurement-noise increases, velocity-slip biases, communication dropouts, and task abandonment. The results show timely detection in the noise and bias cases, maintained

arXiv:2603.13743v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language model (LLM)-based AI agents are increasingly capable of complex clinical reasoning and may soon participate in medical decision-making with limited or no real-time human oversight. This shift raises fundamental questions about how the core principles of medical ethics (i.e., beneficence, nonmaleficence, autonomy, and justice) can be upheld when the clinical responsibility extends to autonomous systems. Here we propose an ethics-by-design framework for medical AI agents comprising six practical interventions: auditable ethical reasoning modules, explicit human override conditions, structured patient preference profiles, AI-specific ethics oversight tools, global benchmarking repositories for ethical scenarios, and regulatory sandboxes for real-world evaluation. Together, these mechanisms aim to operationalize ethical governance for emerging clinical AI agents.

In this episode of Revolution Health Radio, Chris breaks down a new large-scale study challenging the popular belief that plant-based diets promote longevity. The findings reveal that vegetarians—especially vegans—were significantly less likely to reach age 100 compared to omnivores. Chris explores the biological reasons behind these findings, emphasizing the importance of high-quality protein and nutrient bioavailability, as well as why certain nutrients may be harder to obtain from plant-only diets. He also discusses the powerful nutritional synergy that occurs when plant and animal foods are consumed together, arguing against rigid dietary dogma and advocating for a balanced, omnivorous approach to support healthy aging and longevity.

Deepfake rumors started after social media users claimed Netanyahu is depicted in this video with six fingers on his right hand (seen left). | Image: Israel Government Press Office Social media platforms are currently awash with conspiracy theories claiming that Benjamin Netanyahu has been killed or injured and replaced by AI-generated deepfakes. Between clips that supposedly show the Israeli Prime Minister sporting extra fingers and drinking from a bottomless, gravity-defying cup of coffee, only one thing is apparent: reality used to be much easier to prove. There's very little credible evidence to suggest that Netanyahu isn't alive. But credibility is a rare commodity now that AI can convincingly clone real people across image, video, and audio formats, so it's getting tougher to conclusively dispel the rumors.

On the matter of cellular senescence as a contributing cause of degenerative aging, there is a school of thought whose members argue that at least some senescent cells are doing something useful by existing, despite their problematic behavior. Therefore therapeutic approaches should focus on prevention of senescence (senostatics) or reducing the harmful senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) (senomorphics) rather than on outright destruction of senescent cells (senolytics). Within the array of possible ways to reduce the pace at which cells become senescence, sabotaging the ability of senescent cells to encourage their neighbors to also become senescent has been little explored, so it is interesting to note recent work on this topic. Today's open access paper represents is an early step on the path to finding ways […]

Stem cells are gaining attention for their potential to treat leukemia, certain solid tumor cancers, and inherited metabolic disorders. Now, a clinical trial reports that a single dose can significantly improve physical strength and key signs of aging in older adults with frailty.

Researchers here provide data on the correlations between (a) secreted proteins circulating in blood that are distinct to senescent cells of various types, and (b) a number of different age-related conditions. Some cell types are better than others when it comes to the strength of correlation between the burden of senescence as assessed by circulating proteins and status of given age-related condition. This process of mapping the landscape of senescence and aging sets the stage for the development of better assays that can inform patients as to the risk resulting from the burden of senescence, and later the degree of improvement produced by therapies capable of reducing the burden of senescent cells. Senescence is characterized in part by proteomic expression changes, including the secretion of […]

Senescent cells accumulate in tissues with age to promote degenerative aging. Senescent cells cause harm via the signals that they send to other cells, the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP). The SASP is by no means fully understood, and while it clearly contains many pro-inflammatory and pro-growth signals, it probably has many other effects as well. Here, researchers provide evidence for one specific SASP signal molecule to interfere in the benefits of exercise. Clearance of senescent cells should therefore produce an enhanced response to exercise in old individuals, in addition to the other benefits already demonstrated in a sizeable number of animal studies. Adaptation to physiological stress is fundamental to health but varies widely among individuals. In humans, this heterogeneity is evident in markedly different gains […]

arXiv:2603.12299v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This thesis presents Regenerative Rejection Sampling (RRS), a novel approximate sampling algorithm inspired by classical Rejection Sampling and Markov Chain Monte Carlo methods. The method constructs a continuous-time regenerative process whose stationary distribution coincides with a target density known only up to a normalizing constant. Unlike standard Rejection Sampling, RRS does not require the existence of a finite constant that upper-bounds the likelihood ratio. As a result, its total variation convergence rate remains exponential for a larger class of scenarios compared to, for example, the Independent Metropolis-Hastings sampler, which requires a finite bounding constant. To explain the workings of the method, we first present a detailed review of renewal and regenerative processes, including their limit theorems, stationary versions, and convergence properties under standard conditions.

arXiv:2603.12713v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Tissues must maintain macroscopic homeostasis despite the continuous microscopic accumulation of cellular damage. Theoretical models of this process often suffer from a disconnect between microscopic biophysics and macroscopic phenomenological games. Here, we bridge this gap by deriving an exact dimensionality reduction of a physiologically structured partial differential equation (PDE) into a low-dimensional dynamical system. Under the condition of uniform mortality, we mathematically demonstrate that tissue homeostasis operates as an induced Nash equilibrium, where the per-capita net growth rates of stem and differentiated phenotypes perfectly equalize. This reduction yields closed-form algebraic rules, the Ratio and Equalization Laws, that map continuous microscopic state dynamics to measurable macroscopic observables.

arXiv:2603.12880v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The use of wearables in medicine and wellness, enabled by AI-based models, offers tremendous potential for real-time monitoring and interpretable event detection. Explainable AI (XAI) is required to assess what models have learned and build trust in model outputs, for patients, healthcare professionals, model developers, and domain experts alike. Explaining AI decisions made on time-series data recorded by wearables is especially challenging due to the data's complex nature and temporal dependencies. Too often, explainability using interpretable features leads to performance loss. We propose a novel XAI method that combines explanation spaces and concept-based explanations to explain AI predictions on time-series data. By using Inherently Interpretable Components (IICs), which encapsulate domain-specific, interpretable concepts within a custom explanation space, we preserve the performance of models trained on time series while

Daily multivitamin use slowed biological aging by about four months in a two-year study of nearly 1,000 participants, with the biggest benefits in older adults.

Species capable of exceptional regeneration also tend to have longer life spans and slowed aging relative to similar species with less proficient regenerative capabilities. Various closely related species of spiny mouse have been studied in the context of mammalian regeneration because of their ability to shed a large amount of skin and supporting tissues as a defensive mechanism, and later regrow that tissue without scarring. This exceptional regenerative capacity extends to at least some internal organs as well. Spiny mice have been used in past studies that pointed to differences in the activity of macrophage cells as one of the important determinants of complete regeneration versus scar formation. Macrophages are innate immune cells that are deeply involved in ongoing tissue maintenance and regeneration from injury. […]
