Author(s)
Patrick D. O'Reilly, Kristina Rigopoulos
During Fiscal Year 2023 (FY 2023) – from October 1, 2022, through September 30, 2023 –the NIST Information Technology Laboratory (ITL) Cybersecurity and Privacy Program successfully responded to numerous challenges and opportunities in security and privacy

AI-Based Environment Segmentation Using a Context-Aware Channel Sounder

April 26, 2024
Author(s)
Anuraag Bodi, Samuel Berweger, Raied Caromi, Jihoon Bang, Jelena Senic, Camillo Gentile
We describe how the data acquired from the camera and Lidar systems of our context-aware radio-frequency (RF) channel sounder is used to reconstruct a 3D mesh of the surrounding environment, segmented and classified into discrete objects. First, the images

Context-Aware Channel Sounder for AI-Assisted Radio-Frequency Channel Modeling

April 26, 2024
Author(s)
Camillo Gentile, Jelena Senic, Anuraag Bodi, Samuel Berweger, Raied Caromi, Nada Golmie
We describe a context-aware channel sounder that consists of three separate systems: a radio-frequency system to extract multipaths scattered from the surrounding environment in the 3D geometrical domain, a Lidar system to generate a point cloud of the

2024 NIST Generative AI (GenAI): Data Creation Specification for Text-to-Text (T2T) Generators

April 1, 2024
Author(s)
Yooyoung Lee, George Awad, Asad Butt, Lukas Diduch, Kay Peterson, Seungmin Seo, Ian Soboroff, Hariharan Iyer
Generator (G) teams will be tested on their system ability to generate content that is indistinguishable from human-generated content. For the pilot study, the evaluation will help determine strengths and weaknesses in their approaches including insights

AI Use Taxonomy: A Human-Centered Approach

March 26, 2024
Author(s)
Mary Frances Theofanos, Yee-Yin Choong, Theodore Jensen
As artificial intelligence (AI) systems continue to be developed, humans will increasingly participate in human-AI interactions. Humans interact with AI systems to achieve particular goals. To ensure that AI systems contribute positively to human-AI

Improving the TENOR of Labeling: Re-evaluating Topic Models for Content Analysis

March 23, 2024
Author(s)
Zongxia Li, Andrew Mao, Jordan Boyd-Graber, Daniel Stephens, Emily Walpole, Alden A. Dima, Juan Fung
Topic models are a popular tool for understanding text collections, but their evaluation has been a point of contention. Automated evaluation metrics such as coherence are often used, however, their validity has been questioned for neural topic models

Photonic Online Learning

January 9, 2024
Author(s)
Sonia Buckley, Adam McCaughan, Bakhrom Oripov
Training in machine learning necessarily involves more operations than inference only, with higher precision, more memory, and added computational complexity. In hardware, many implementations side-step this issue by designing "inference-only" hardware

Adversarial Machine Learning: A Taxonomy and Terminology of Attacks and Mitigations

January 4, 2024
Author(s)
Apostol Vassilev, Alina Oprea, Alie Fordyce, Hyrum Andersen
This NIST AI report develops a taxonomy of concepts and defines terminology in the field of adversarial machine learning (AML). The taxonomy is built on survey of the AML literature and is arranged in a conceptual hierarchy that includes key types of ML
