Method, article, apparatus and computer system facilitating the easy and intuitive inputting of a desired graphical object into an electronic system from a large plurality of predetermined graphical objects. In one example embodiment, this is achieved by assigning each of said graphical objects into one of a plurality of groups in accordance with a predetermined similarity criterion, associating respective base shapes to each of said groups, wherein said base shapes having a certain degree of similarity to the objects assigned to the associated group according to said similarity criterion and associating in each of said groups at least one gesture to each of said graphical objects, so that the associated gestures are distinguishable from each other. In order to input the desired graphical object, one of the groups is selected by selecting its base shape and then the desired graphical object is identified by drawing the respective gesture associated thereto.

Systems and methods for estimating the distance between a start point and a true endpoint in which at least two functions of differing resolutions are used. The method includes measuring a coarse distance between the start point and an intermediate point using the lower resolution function, the intermediate point comprising a point which is substantially within one unit of the higher resolution function away from the true endpoint. Next, a vernier distance is measured from the intermediate point to a vernier endpoint using the higher resolution function, the vernier endpoint being within a narrow, vernier error window of the true endpoint. Subsequently, the coarse and vernier distances are summed to obtain the estimated distance.

System and method for using information extracted from intuitive multimodal interactions in the context of media for media tagging are disclosed. In one embodiment, multimodal information related to media is captured during multimodal interactions of a plurality of users. The multimodal information includes speech information and gesture information. Further, the multimodal information is analyzed to identify speech portions of interest. Furthermore, relevant tags for tagging the media are extracted from the speech portions of interest.

Provided is a method of assigning user interaction controls. The method assigns, in a scenario where multiple co-present users are simultaneously providing user inputs to a computing device, a first level of user interaction controls related to an object on the computing device to a single user and a second level of user interaction controls related to the object to all co-present simultaneous users of the computing device.

A method for executing a qualified command including detecting a hand gesture input for identifying a command, detecting one or more non-hand gesture inputs to qualify the command, and configuring a processor to execute the qualified command on a machine in response to the hand gesture input and one or more non-hand gesture inputs.

A system and method for dynamically displaying structurally dissimilar thumbnail images generated from multiple pages of an electronic document based on a display size of a display device is disclosed. In one embodiment, one or more candidate images are selected based on a generated metric for dissimilarity for each one of multiple images associated with multiple pages of an electronic document, where the metric for dissimilarity for each one of the multiple images is generated by comparing each image of the multiple images with substantially previous images of the multiple images. Then, the selected one or more candidate images are dynamically displayed as structurally dissimilar thumbnail images based on a display size of a display device.

Provided is a method of detecting lip activity. The method determines magnitude of optical flow in lip region and at least one non-lip region of a detected face. The ratio of magnitude of optical flow in lip region and at least one non-lip region is compared against a threshold. If the ratio is found to be greater than the threshold, lip activity of the detected face is recognized.
