Abstract: The overlay human interactive proof system (“OHIPS”) and techniques described herein operate in conjunction with any known or later developed computer-based applications or services to provide secure access to resources by reliably differentiating between human and non-human users. Humans have a generally superior ability to differentiate misaligned characters or objects from correctly aligned ones. As such, the OHIP splits an image including one or more visual objects into two or more partial images to form a HIP. The partial images may also be further split into groups of sub-partial images, and/or the partial images (or the sub-partial images) may be moved, so that at any given alignment position, a user can recognize only some visual objects. A user is instructed to reassemble the partial images at one or more predetermined alignment positions using a GUI, and the user is asked to identify information regarding one or more visible objects.

Abstract: In one aspect, the present invention reduces the amount of low-latency memory needed for rules-based packet classification by representing a packet classification rules database in compressed form. A packet processing rules database, e.g., an ACL database comprising multiple ACEs, is preprocessed to obtain corresponding rule fingerprints. These rule fingerprints are much smaller than the rules and are easily accommodated in on-chip or other low-latency memory that is generally available to the classification engine in limited amounts. The rules database in turn can be stored in off-chip or other higher-latency memory, as initial matching operations involve only the packet key of the subject packet and the fingerprint database. The rules database is accessed for full packet classification only if a tentative match is found between the packet key and an entry in the fingerprint database. Thus, the present invention also advantageously minimizes accesses to the rules database.

Abstract translation: 一方面，本发明通过以压缩形式表示分组分类规则数据库来减少基于规则的分组分类所需的低延迟存储器的数量。 分组处理规则数据库（例如，包括多个ACE的ACL数据库）被预处理以获得相应的规则指纹。 这些规则指纹比规则小得多，并且容易地被容纳在分类引擎中有限的片上或其他低延迟存储器中。 因为初始匹配操作仅涉及主题分组和指纹数据库的分组密钥，因此规则数据库又可以存储在片外或其他较高延迟的存储器中。 仅当在分组密钥和指纹数据库中的条目之间发现暂时匹配时，才能对完整分组分类进行规则数据库的访问。 因此，本发明还有利地最小化对规则数据库的访问。

Abstract: The HIP creation technique described herein pertains to a technique for creating a human interactive proof (HIP) by applying tearing and/or a conformal transformation to a string of characters while maintaining readability of text. In one embodiment, the technique tears a character string into two or more pieces and applies conformal transformation to warp the pieces in order to create a HIP. The transformation changes the shape and orientation of the characters but preserves angles of the characters which makes it easy for humans to recognize the characters after the transformation. Other embodiments of the technique create HIPs by applying tearing only to a string of characters, or by applying conformal transformation only to the character string.

Abstract: A method and corresponding systems for using remote control to realize standard colors on displays. Two examples of remote controls are provided, one with color sensors and the other with white LEDs. For each example a calibration pattern is displayed which allows a user to calibrate the display color conveniently. For using the remote control with color sensors, an algorithm for the display to adjust the input RGB color, based on the color measurements from the remote control is provided. This allows the display output RGB color so that the display shows the same color as the input RGB signal is sent to standard color display.

Abstract: A color quantization or re-quantization method is provided that combines two dimensional halftoning with luminance preserving quantization (LPQ) for better perception results of high precision color video quantization. A combination of LPQ and error diffusion, and a combination of LPQ and spatial dithering, is provided. To combine LPQ and spatial dithering, the spatial dithering is regarded as a two-step processing, a mapping and a simple rounding. To combine LPQ and dithering together, a rounding step is replaced by the LPQ algorithm in the combination. Further a method is provided for post-processing which is applicable to both cases to reduce the color perception for grayscale image.
