Here we present the forward modeling approach used to derive effective temperatures, surface gravities, radial velocities, rotational velocities, and H-band veiling from these near-infrared spectra. We discuss in detail the statistical and systematic uncertainties in these stellar parameters. In addition, we present accurate extinctions by measuring the E(J-H) of these young stars with respect to the single-star photometric locus in the Pleiades. Finally, we identify an intrinsic stellar radius spread of about 25% for late-type stars in IC 348 using three (nearly) independent measures of stellar radius, namely, the extinction-corrected J-band magnitude, the surface gravity, and the Rsini from the rotational velocities and literature rotation periods. We exclude that this spread is caused by uncertainties in the stellar parameters by showing that the three estimators of stellar radius are correlated, so that brighter stars tend to have lower surface gravities and larger Rsini than fainter stars at the same effective temperature. Description: The spectra were collected with APOGEE's multi-object, high-resolution (R∼22500) spectrograph with a spectral range covering much of the H band from 1.51 to 1.69um, which is fiber-fed from the Sloan 2.5m telescope. We provide two companion tables to this paper, which contain the derived stellar parameters for the stars in IC 348 and the Pleiades. The first table contains one row per star with the mean spectral and photometric parameters. The second table contains one row per epoch with the spectral parameters measured at that epoch. In both tables we provide the uncertainties computed by Equation (5).
