Scribe: Deep Integration of Human and Machine Intelligence to Caption Speech in Real Time
We discuss how our Scribe system combines human labor and machine intelligence in real time to reliably convert speech to text with less than 4s latency.

Technical Perspective: A Gloomy Look at the Integrity of Hardware
"Exploiting the Analog Properties of Digital Circuits for Malicious Hardware," by Kaiyuan Yang, et al., assumes semiconductor foundries (and others in chip fabrication) can be malicious, modifying designs to produce devices that…

Technical Perspective: Humans and Computers Working Together on Hard Tasks
"Scribe," by Walter S. Lasecki, et al., is one of the first in a recent set of crowdsourcing papers that demonstrated how human workers can collaborate with computing systems to accomplish a real-time task that is difficult for…

Exploiting the Analog Properties of Digital Circuits For Malicious Hardware
We show how a fabrication-time attacker can leverage analog circuits to create a hardware attack that is small and stealthy.
