20110154174 | EMBEDDED MEDIA MARKERS AND SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR GENERATING AND USING THEM - Embedded Media Markers (EMM) are optical-filter-like overlaid marks that can be printed on a part of a paper document that signify the existence of media associated with that part of the document. Users take a picture of an EMM-signified document patch using a cell phone camera, and the media associated with the EMM-signified document location is retrieved and displayed on the phone. Unlike bar codes, EMMs are nearly transparent and thus do not interfere with the document contents. Retrieval of media associated with an EMM is based on image local features of the captured EMM-signified document patch. A semi-automatically technique places an EMM at a location in a document, in such a way that the EMM encompasses sufficient identification features with minimal disturbance to the original document. | 06-23-2011 |

20100058437 | GRAPHICAL SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR USER AUTHENTICATION - System and method for graphical user authentication using compact collages of regions of images. Image corpus is constructed by selecting similar quality images and filtering to further homogenize image quality. Regions are detected within the images and scored according to similarity and neighborhood information. Regions with lower scores provide less information about other regions and are more secure secrets. During enrollment, user selects secret images; decoy images are chosen by the system accordingly. Regions from secret images are selected as secrets according to the scoring of regions and regions from decoy images are selected as decoys. A collage is formed with secrets and decoys. Compact rendering enhances security and is suitable for small displays of mobile devices. Several rounds of challenge, requiring identification of secrets, are presented to the user. User is authenticated if a certain number of correct identifications of secrets within a number of rounds are achieved. | 03-04-2010 |
