Abstract:
A method for implementing a secure printing campaign to thwart counterfeiting is provided. The method includes the steps of selecting a first secure print technology and a second secure print technology that is distinct from the first secure print technology, selecting a first secure print variable for the first secure print technology and a second secure print variable for the second secure print technology, and establishing a first plurality of discrete values for the first secure print variable and a second plurality of discrete values for the second secure print variable.
Abstract:
Disclosed are systems and methods for scanning media. In one embodiment, a system and a method pertain to scanning a platen at a relatively low resolution using a dedicated preview image sensor, and pre-processing image data obtained through the scanning of the platen to automatically determine settings to apply during a subsequent final scan.
Abstract:
A color image processor is configured to locate at least two zones within a document. Within the zones, content types are recognized, wherein the content types may include: text and lines; graphic images; photographic images; and background. A color rendering intent is applied to each of the at least two zones based on the content type within the zone. The zones are then merged into an image.
Abstract:
A system and method for deploying a document classification system include deploying a document classification system with a first classification engine configuration, and thereafter, automatically redeploying the document classification system with a second classification engine configuration in response to a cost function.
Abstract:
A system for distinguishing a package includes a plurality of identifiers, where at least one of the identifiers is intentionally non-functional. The system also includes an identifier indicator that indicates the identity of the at least one of the identifiers that is intentionally non-functional. In addition, the identifier indicator is stored on at least one of the package and a database and is accessible by a user to authenticate the package.
Abstract:
A method for embedding covert information on a printed substrate is provided. The method can include the steps of printing overt indicia on a substrate and generating a pattern of microtext representative of at least a portion of the overt indicia. Such microtext is capable of being printed in at least two distinct fonts, including a first font and a second font. The method can further include steps of varying the pattern of microtext such that at least one character of the pattern of microtext is configured to be printed in the first font and at least one character is configured to be printed in the second font, thereby providing a font variation which corresponds to a covert code, and printing the pattern of microtext which includes the font variation on the substrate.
Abstract:
A method of providing customized medical monitoring to a patient is disclosed. The method can include steps of selecting a medical monitoring device for a patient, where the medical monitoring device is associated with a biological transducer, determining at least one desired monitoring parameter, and customizing locally the medical monitoring device to monitor the desired monitoring parameter collected by the biological transducer. The method may further include steps of providing the medical monitoring device to the patient, and monitoring at least one health parameter of the patient from a remote location. The medical monitoring device can also be customized remotely.
Abstract:
A method for deploying an additional document classifier engine into an existing document processing system that includes the steps of adding a new document classifier engine to an existing single or pool of document classifier engines and training the new document classifier engine on previously misclassified documents.
Abstract:
An optimal resolution imaging system comprises a resolution engine adapted to apply at least one resolution rule to at least one zone of an object to determine an optimal reduced resolution setting for the at least one zone while maintaining a predetermined quality level for the at least one zone.
Abstract:
A system and method for attribute extraction within a call handling system is disclosed. The method discloses: initiating a dialog between a contact and a call handling system; waiting for a first length of the dialog; assigning the contact to a first attribute category by processing the first length of the dialog using a first instance of a first classifier; waiting for a second length of the dialog; and assigning the contact to a second attribute category by processing the second length of the dialog using a first instance of a second classifier trained to categorize dialogs assigned only to the first attribute category. The system discloses means and mediums for practicing the method.
