• Title: Documenting use cases in the affective computing domain using Unified Modeling Language
• Authors: Isabelle Hupont and Emilia Gomez
• Abstract summary: There is no standard methodology for use case documentation covering the context of use, scope, functional requirements and risks of an AI system. Our approach builds upon an assessment of use case information needs documented in the research literature and the recently proposed European regulatory framework for AI. From this assessment, we adopt and adapt the Unified Modeling Language (UML), which has been used in the last two decades mostly by software engineers.

• Abstract: The study of the ethical impact of AI and the design of trustworthy systems needs the analysis of the scenarios where AI systems are used, which is related to the software engineering concept of "use case" and the "intended purpose" legal term. However, there is no standard methodology for use case documentation covering the context of use, scope, functional requirements and risks of an AI system. In this work, we propose a novel documentation methodology for AI use cases, with a special focus on the affective computing domain. Our approach builds upon an assessment of use case information needs documented in the research literature and the recently proposed European regulatory framework for AI. From this assessment, we adopt and adapt the Unified Modeling Language (UML), which has been used in the last two decades mostly by software engineers. Each use case is then represented by an UML diagram and a structured table, and we provide a set of examples illustrating its application to several affective computing scenarios.

• Prompting Encoder Models for Zero-Shot Classification: A Cross-Domain Study in Italian [75.94354349994576]
  This paper explores the feasibility of employing smaller, domain-specific encoder LMs alongside prompting techniques to enhance performance in specialized contexts. Our study concentrates on the Italian bureaucratic and legal language, experimenting with both general-purpose and further pre-trained encoder-only models. The results indicate that while further pre-trained models may show diminished robustness in general knowledge, they exhibit superior adaptability for domain-specific tasks, even in a zero-shot setting.

  Our model iteratively selects or synthesizes a data-point according to one of a range of information-theoretic policies. We find that the information-theoretic policies that our model uses to select items to query the informant achieve sample efficiency comparable to, or greater than, fully supervised approaches.

  Given growing concerns about the potential harms of artificial intelligence, societies have begun to demand more transparency about how AI models and systems are created and used. To address these concerns, several efforts have proposed documentation templates containing questions to be answered by model developers. No single template can cover the needs of diverse documentation consumers.

  Reuse is a common system architecture approach that seeks to instantiate a system architecture with existing components. There is currently no framework that guides the selection of necessary information to assess their portability to operate in a system different than the one for which the component was originally purposed. We present ongoing work on establishing an interface description template that captures the main information of an AI-enabled component.
