As AI models and services are used in a growing number of highstakes areas, a consensus is forming around the need for a clearer record of how these models and services are developed to increase trust. Several proposals for higher quality and more consistent AI documentation have emerged to address ethical and legal concerns and general social impacts of such systems. However, there is little published work on how to create this documentation. This is the first work to describe a methodology for creating the form of AI documentation we call FactSheets. We have used this methodology to create useful FactSheets for nearly two dozen models. This paper describes this methodology and shares the insights we have gathered. Within each step of the methodology, we describe the issues to consider and the questions to explore with the relevant people in an organization who will be creating and consuming the AI facts in a FactSheet. This methodology will accelerate the broader adoption of transparent AI documentation.

This article gives an overview of current research on animated pedagogical agents at the Center for Advanced Research in Technology for Education (CARTE) at the University of Southern California/Information Sciences Institute. Animated pedagogical agents, nicknamed guidebots, interact with learners to help keep learning activities on track. They combine the pedagogical expertise of intelligent tutoring systems with the interpersonal interaction capabilities of embodied conversational characters. They can support the acquisition of team skills as well as skills performed alone by individuals. At CARTE, we have been developing guidebots that help learners acquire a variety of problem-solving skills in virtual worlds, in multimedia environments, and on the web.

This is a list of various books, courses and other resources for robotics. It's an attempt to gather useful material in one place for everybody who wants to learn more about the field. ROS The Robot Operating System (ROS) is a flexible framework for writing robot software. It is a collection of tools, libraries, and conventions that aim to simplify the task of creating complex and robust robot behavior across a wide variety of robotic platforms. RobWork RobWork is a collection of C libraries for simulation and control of robot systems.

Just last month, Carmen Blandin had a remarkable dream. In it she saw, for the first time, not her old face in the mirror--the one she had for the first 38 years of her life--but the new face she received in a transplant three years ago. "I actually saw me with my new face," she says. In the dream, she was smiling. Carmen became severely disfigured one evening in 2007, at her home in rural Vermont, when her estranged husband doused her with industrial strength lye while she lay in bed.

They express both thoughts and California (USC)/Information Sciences Institute emotions; emotional expression is important to (ISI) is to develop new technologies that portray characteristics of enthusiasm and empathy promote effective learning and increase learner that are important for human teachers. These technologies are intended They are knowledgeable about the subject matter to result in interactive learning materials that being learned, of pedagogical strategies, and support the learning process and that complement also have knowledge about how to find and and enhance existing technologies relevant obtain relevant knowledge from available to learning such as the World Wide Web. Our work draws significant inspiration from Figure 1 shows one of the guidebots that we human learning and teaching. We piece of equipment called a high-pressure air seek a better understanding of the characteristics compressor aboard United States Navy ships. As learners view instructional materials, guidebots can provide useful commentary on these materials.
