Welcome to the NIST Trustworthy & Responsible Artificial Intelligence Resource Center (AIRC).


Welcome to the NIST Trustworthy & Responsible Artificial Intelligence Resource Center (AIRC).

The AIRC supports all AI actors in the development and deployment of trustworthy and responsible AI technologies. AIRC supports and operationalizes the NIST AI Risk Management Framework (AI RMF 1.0) and accompanying Playbook and will grow with enhancements to enable an interactive, role-based experience providing access to a wide-range of relevant AI resources.


The Department of Veterans Affairs Establishes a Trustworthy AI Framework

 

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) AI Risk Management Framework (AI RMF) provides AI organizations with a guiding structure to operate within, and outcomes to aspire towards, all connected to their specific contexts, use cases, and skillsets. The rights-affirming framework operationalizes trustworthy AI within a culture of responsible AI practice and use.  https://airc.nist.gov/AI_RMF_Knowledge_Base


NIST AI 600-1: AI RMF Generative AI Profile

This document can help organizations identify unique risks posed by generative AI and proposes actions for generative AI risk management that best aligns with their goals and priorities.


NIST AI 100-5: A Plan for Global Engagement on AI Standards

A Plan for Global Engagement on AI Standards ( NIST AI 100-5 ) is designed to drive the worldwide development and implementation of AI-related consensus standards, cooperation and coordination, and information sharing. 


NIST AI 100-4: Reducing Risks Posed by Synthetic Content

This publication informs, and is complementary to, a separate report on understanding the provenance and detection of synthetic content that AI EO Section 4.5(a) tasks NIST with providing to the White House. NIST AI 100-4 lays out methods for detecting, authenticating and labeling synthetic content, including digital watermarking and metadata recording, where information indicating the origin or history of content such as an image or sound recording is embedded in the content to assist in verifying its authenticity.

IETF officially deprecates TLS 1.0 and TLS 1.1
The driving force behind the deprecation process was the large number of attacks that were revealed in previous years and which impacted the cryptographic algorithms at the base of the two protocols.
This included attacks like BEAST, POODLE, ROBOT, SWEET 32, LUCKY 13, and others, all of which showed how attackers could take advantage of weaknesses in both SSL and TLS 1.0/1.1 to compromise encrypted communications and attack organizations.

Microsoft Package Manager
Microsoft has a Package Manager. It is like Linux Package Managers or Chocolaty in that it has a repository of current applications. It can also be set up to have your own repository of applications specific to your environment. So you can use Powershell to install a group of applications that you use for your own business use cases.

The Study of Tiny Motions being amplified, some to the point that you can hear it.




Video Magnification

Many seemingly static scenes contain subtle changes that are invisible to the naked human eye. However, it is possible to pull out these small changes from videos through the use of algorithms we have developed. We give a way to visualize these small changes by amplifying them and we present algorithms to pull out interesting signals from these videos, such as the human pulse, sound from vibrating objects and the motion of hot air.

Eulerian Video Magnification for Revealing Subtle Changes in the World
Abstract

Our goal is to reveal temporal variations in videos that are difficult or impossible to see with the naked eye and display them in an indicative manner. Our method, which we call Eulerian Video Magnification, takes a standard video sequence as input, and applies spatial decomposition, followed by temporal filtering to the frames. The resulting signal is then amplified to reveal hidden information. Using our method, we are able to visualize the flow of blood as it fills the face and also to amplify and reveal small motions. Our technique can run in real time to show phenomena occurring at temporal frequencies selected by the user.
