Trustworthy Artificial Intelligence Implementation: Introduction to the TAII Framework (Business Guides on the Go)
by Josef Baker-BrunnbauerRapidly developing Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems hold tremendous potential to change various domains and exert considerable influence on societies and organizations alike. More than merely a technical discipline, AI requires interaction between various professions. Based on the results of fundamental literature and empirical research, this book addresses the management’s awareness of the ethical and moral aspects of AI. It seeks to fill a literature gap and offer the management guidance on tackling Trustworthy AI Implementation (TAII) while also considering ethical dependencies within the company. The TAII Framework introduced here pursues a holistic approach to identifying systemic ethical relationships within the company ecosystem and considers corporate values, business models, and common goods aspects like the Sustainable Development Goals and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Further, it provides guidance on the implementation of AI ethics in organisations without requiring a deeper background in philosophy and considers the social impacts outside of the software and data engineering setting. Depending on the respective legal context or area of application, the TAII Framework can be adapted and used with a range of regulations and ethical principles. This book can serve as a case study or self-review for c-level managers and students who are interested in this field. It also offers valuable guidelines and perspectives for policymakers looking to pursue an ethical approach to AI.

Trustworthy Communications and Complete Genealogies: Unifying Ancestries for a Genealogical History of the Modern World (Synthesis Lectures on Information Concepts, Retrieval, and Services)
by Reagan W. MooreThis book discusses how a genealogical history of the modern world can be created by linking the Royal Families of Western Europeans database to Unifying Ancestry. This new edition extends the original analysis by including a coherence metric to evaluate the content of the Unifying Ancestry database, which is freely available online educational software within the CoreGen3 analysis workbench. The author discusses why common ancestors of the Royal Families of Western Europe comprise an optimal Unifying Ancestry experience and further illustrates this by using historically influential people as examples. Specifically, algorithms for validating the Unifying Ancestry are applied to a 330,000-person Research Genealogy and then used to link to historical royal descendants. Genealogical evaluation properties for consistency, correctness, closure, connectivity, completeness and coherence are demonstrated. These properties are applied to a Research Genealogy to generate a unifying ancestry for western Europeans. The unifying ancestry is then used to create a genealogical history of the modern world. All the analyses can be reproduced by readers using the Unifying Ancestry CoreGen3 program.
Trustworthy Communications and Complete Genealogies: Unifying Ancestries for a Genealogical History of the Modern World (Synthesis Lectures on Information Concepts, Retrieval, and Services)
by Reagan W. MooreThis book explains how all persons with Western European ancestry are related through a Unifying Ancestry. The author presents the knowledge metrics needed to derive the best representation for a Unifying Ancestry. The book uses example lineages to historically notable persons including relationships to U.S. Presidents, royal families, actors, and singers in order to demonstrate these points. This third edition is based upon expanded data, applying the algorithms to validate the Unifying Ancestry to a 348,844-person Research Genealogy. The author successfully demonstrates that a Unifying Ancestry with 38,533 persons is sufficient to identify familial relationships between Western Europeans.

Trustworthy Cyber-Physical Systems Engineering (Chapman & Hall/CRC Computer and Information Science Series #36)
by Alexander Romanovsky Fuyuki IshikawaFrom the Foreword "Getting CPS dependability right is essential to forming a solid foundation for a world that increasingly depends on such systems. This book represents the cutting edge of what we know about rigorous ways to ensure that our CPS designs are trustworthy. I recommend it to anyone who wants to get a deep look at these concepts that will form a cornerstone for future CPS designs." --Phil Koopman, Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA Trustworthy Cyber-Physical Systems Engineering provides practitioners and researchers with a comprehensive introduction to the area of trustworthy Cyber Physical Systems (CPS) engineering. Topics in this book cover questions such as What does having a trustworthy CPS actually mean for something as pervasive as a global-scale CPS? How does CPS trustworthiness map onto existing knowledge, and where do we need to know more? How can we mathematically prove timeliness, correctness, and other essential properties for systems that may be adaptive and even self-healing? How can we better represent the physical reality underlying real-world numeric quantities in the computing system? How can we establish, reason about, and ensure trust between CPS components that are designed, installed, maintained, and operated by different organizations, and which may never have really been intended to work together? Featuring contributions from leading international experts, the book contains sixteen self-contained chapters that analyze the challenges in developing trustworthy CPS, and identify important issues in developing engineering methods for CPS. The book addresses various issues contributing to trustworthiness complemented by contributions on TCSP roadmapping, taxonomy, and standardization, as well as experience in deploying advanced system engineering methods in industry. Specific approaches to ensuring trustworthiness, namely, proof and refinement, are covered, as well as engineering methods for dealing with hybrid aspects.

Trustworthy Hardware Design: Combinational Logic Locking Techniques (Analog Circuits and Signal Processing)
by Muhammad Yasin Jeyavijayan (JV) Rajendran Ozgur SinanogluWith the popularity of hardware security research, several edited monograms have been published, which aim at summarizing the research in a particular field. Typically, each book chapter is a recompilation of one or more research papers, and the focus is on summarizing the state-of-the-art research. Different from the edited monograms, the chapters in this book are not re-compilations of research papers. The book follows a pedagogical approach. Each chapter has been planned to emphasize the fundamental principles behind the logic locking algorithms and relate concepts to each other using a systematization of knowledge approach. Furthermore, the authors of this book are in a good position to be able to deliver such a book, as they contributed to this field significantly through numerous fundamental papers.

Truth and Fake in the Post-Factual Digital Age: Distinctions in the Humanities and IT Sciences
by Peter Klimczak Thomas ZoglauerThe increase in fake news, the growing influence on elections, increasing false reports and targeted disinformation campaigns are not least a consequence of advancing digitalisation. Information technology is needed to put a stop to these undesirable developments. With intelligent algorithms and refined data analysis, fakes must be detected more quickly in the future and their spread prevented. However, in order to meaningfully recognize and filter fakes by means of artificial intelligence, it must be possible to distinguish fakes from facts, facts from fictions, and fictions from fakes. This book therefore also asks questions about the distinctions of fake, factual and fictional. The underlying theories of truth are discussed, and practical-technical ways of differentiating truth from falsity are outlined. By considering the fictional as well as the assumption that information-technical further development can profit from humanities knowledge, the authors hope that content-related, technical and methodological challenges of the present and future can be overcome.
Truth in Our Times: Inside the Fight for Press Freedom in the Age of Alternative Facts
by David E. McCrawDavid E. McCraw recounts his experiences as the top newsroom lawyer for the New York Times during the most turbulent era for journalism in generations.In October 2016, when Donald Trump's lawyer demanded that The New York Times retract an article focused on two women that accused Trump of touching them inappropriately, David McCraw's scathing letter of refusal went viral and he became a hero of press freedom everywhere. But as you'll see in Truth in Our Times, for the top newsroom lawyer at the paper of record, it was just another day at the office.McCraw has worked at the Times since 2002, leading the paper's fight for freedom of information, defending it against libel suits, and providing legal counsel to the reporters breaking the biggest stories of the year. In short: if you've read a controversial story in the paper since the Bush administration, it went across his desk first. From Chelsea Manning's leaks to Trump's tax returns, McCraw is at the center of the paper's decisions about what news is fit to print.In Truth in Our Times, McCraw recounts the hard legal decisions behind the most impactful stories of the last decade with candor and style. The book is simultaneously a rare peek behind the curtain of the celebrated organization, a love letter to freedom of the press, and a decisive rebuttal of Trump's fake news slur through a series of hard cases. It is an absolute must-have for any dedicated reader of The New York Times.
The Truth Machine: The Blockchain and the Future of Everything
by Paul Vigna Michael J. Casey<p>Big banks have grown bigger and more entrenched. Privacy exists only until the next hack. Credit card fraud is a fact of life. Many of the “legacy systems” once designed to make our lives easier and our economy more efficient are no longer up to the task. Yet there is a way past all this—a new kind of operating system with the potential to revolutionize vast swaths of our economy: the blockchain. <p>In <i>The Truth Machine</i>, Michael J. Casey and Paul Vigna demystify the blockchain and explain why it can restore personal control over our data, assets, and identities; grant billions of excluded people access to the global economy; and shift the balance of power to revive society’s faith in itself. They reveal the disruption it promises for industries including finance, tech, legal, and shipping. <p>Casey and Vigna expose the challenge of replacing trusted (and not-so-trusted) institutions on which we’ve relied for centuries with a radical model that bypasses them. <i>The Truth Machine</i> reveals the empowerment possible when self-interested middlemen give way to the transparency of the blockchain, while highlighting the job losses, assertion of special interests, and threat to social cohesion that will accompany this shift. With the same balanced perspective they brought to <i>The Age of Cryptocurrency</i>, Casey and Vigna show why we all must care about the path that blockchain technology takes—moving humanity forward, not backward.
Truth-Seeking in an Age of (SUNY series, Humanities to the Rescue)
by David R. Castillo, Siwei Lyu, Christina Milletti, and Cynthia StewartThe unprecedented spread of false and misleading information is the flip side of the Internet's promise of universal access and information democratization. This volume features original contributions from scholars working on the challenge of misinformation across a wide range of STEM, humanities, and art disciplines. Modeling a collaborative, multidisciplinary "convergence approach," Truth-Seeking in an Age of (Mis)Information Overload is structured in three parts. Part 1, "Misinformation and Artificial Intelligence," confronts the danger of outsourcing judgement and decision-making to AI instruments in key areas of public life, from the processing of loan applications to school funding, policing, and criminal sentencing. Part 2, "Science Communication," foregrounds the need to rethink how scientific findings are communicated to the public, calling on scientists to cooperate with colleagues in other disciplines and community representatives to help minimize the negative effects of mis/disinformation in such vital areas as climate change science and public health. Part 3, "Building Trust," further advocates for and explores instances of trust-building initiatives as a necessary precondition of both community-oriented scholarly activity and effective intervention strategies in high impact areas such as public health.
