Submovement-based mouse input cheating detection
Abstract:
A cheat detection methodology is disclosed that relates to identifying cheaters making super-human movements in interactive programs. For example, users trying to outcompete their opponents in video games using large aim assists and aim bots that perform actions that are not feasibly human. The disclosed methodology substantially reduces or even eliminates the benefit that various cheating solutions offer. In one aspect, the disclosure provides a method of monitoring cheating in interactive programs. In one example, the method includes: (1) obtaining motion data corresponding to a user input device interacting with an interactive program, (2) segmenting data submovements from the motion data, (3) determining one or more attributes of the data submovements, and (4) detecting, based on the one or more attributes, the data submovements that are a deviation of human submovements.
