Direct LLM subnational public-opinion distribution benchmark
P3What LLMs Understand about Dynamic Networks
supporting adjacent
LLM understanding of evolving networks and validity
P2Interaction Diversity in News Ecosystems: Accounting for Organizational Structure and Ownership

08:30–09:00RegistrationAll four
09:00–10:20Talk 5: Agents & Cognitive Modeling (4 papers)P1 cognition; P2 recidivism/population behavior; P3 minimal RL social agents; P4 information-effect scalability. Supporting non-LLM models are comparison baselines.
10:20–10:30CoffeeAll four
10:30–12:30 (as printed)Talk 6: Operational Attention & Behavioral Telemetry (4 papers)P1 human gaze/memory; P4 survey archetypes. Published end overlaps lightning. Four 20-minute talks would end 11:50, but do not silently adopt that inference.
11:50–12:30Poster lightning talks (16 titles)
Short talks, not a walk-around poster session.
P2/P3 cover lightning if actual overlap; P1/P4 cover Talk6 until changeover clarified. Reddit paper direct; others supporting/uncertain. No individual time inferred from list order.
12:30–13:30Boxed lunch & awardsAll four; consolidate one-page shared synthesis

Timing conflict: Talk 6 is printed 10:30–12:30, overlapping lightning 11:50–12:30. Until confirmed, P1/P4 stay for Talk 6; P2/P3 cover lightning. No individual talk times inferred.
Coverage: 15 working/poster proceedings entries versus 16 lightning titles; Copper Infrastructure Theft is schedule-only. Individual reception membership is unprinted. Archival papers were title-screened; 14 working-paper abstracts reviewed. This is not full-text/exhaustive validation.
