The invention relates to determining a context of a system so that the system can be controlled or the context information be used in the system. The context of a system is described with tags or words that characterize e.g. the state of the system, the surroundings of the system and the state of the user. These tags are determined at multiple time instances. The tags are collected over a first time span and a second time span, and the two (or more) sets of tags are used to determine the context of the system.

An image correction device trims an image, which has been captured by a camera provided in a moving object, in accordance with a predetermined image frame to generate a corrected image that is enclosed by the predetermined image frame, and then outputs the corrected image as an output image. Even when there is an error between an actual camera position in which the camera is actually positioned and a scheduled camera position in which the camera is scheduled to be positioned, the image correction device (i) decomposes the error into a first component that extends along an imaging direction of the camera and a second component that extends along a plane orthogonal to the imaging direction, (ii) shifts the image frame in accordance with the first component, and (iii) enlarges or shrinks a size of the image frame in accordance with the second component.
In a system having an interface that utilizes an electroencephalogram, there is realized a calibration which prevents overlooking of calibrational stimulations concerning the electroencephalogram and which is highly accurate.
An electroencephalogram interface system (1) includes an interface section (100) which acquires an electroencephalogram signal from a user, distinguishes a P3 component of a visual event-related potential contained in the electroencephalogram signal after a manipulation menu is presented, and operates a device based on the distinguished P3 component. An electroencephalogram distinction method adjustment apparatus (10) is used for adjusting a distinction method in the interface section (100). Based on a database (13) defining a correlation between a P3 component of an event-related potential obtained from a stimulation to a modality other than the visual sense and a P3 component of a visual event-related potential and on a P3 component of an event-related potential after a stimulation is presented, the apparatus (10) derives a characteristic quantity of the user concerning the P3 component of the visual event-related potential, and adjusts the electroencephalogram distinction method in the interface section (100) based on the characteristic quantity.
A web-based image detection system includes: an image capture device, a web browser, a plug-in, and a recognition server. A captured image is processed by the plug-in to assess whether a pre-determined content type is contained with in the image. Once an initial analysis at the browser plug-in detects a pre-determined content type in an image, the image is transmitted to a recognition server for content recognition of the image by content type. The system thus enables users to link documents or other image types to electronic data using only a capture device and a web browser.

Focusing on a portion of an audio scene for an audio signal
Aspects of the invention provide methods, computer-readable media, and apparatuses for spatially manipulating sound that is played back to a listener over a set of output transducers, e.g., headphones. The listener can direct spatial attention to focus on a portion of an audio scene, analogous to a magnifying glass being used to pick out details in a picture. An input multi-channel audio signal that is generated by audio sources is obtained, and directional information is determined for each of the audio sources. The user provides a desired direction of spatial attention so that audio processing can focus on the desired direction and render a corresponding multi-channel audio signal to the user. A region of an audio scene is expanded around the desired direction while the audio scene is compressed in another portion of the audio scene.

The load on access points (APs) in wireless, local area networks (WLANs) is minimized using a number of methods and associated devices. One method minimizes the load of the most congested APs while a second balances the load on both congested and uncongested APs using an optimal min-max (priority) load balanced solution. The optimal solution is obtained without requiring complex modifications, among other things. Both methods include adjustments to the transmission power levels of AP beacon messages to reduce congestion, but do not require adjustments to the transmission power levels of AP data traffic channels.

Software plug-in framework to modify decryption methods in terminals
The present invention provides methods, apparatuses, and systems for delivering protected multi-media content to a receiving device. Protected multi-media content and key information are inserted in a same time slice burst. A receiving device receives the time slice burst with the content datagrams and the key information and decrypts the content datagrams with the key information. Key datagrams may be associated with a higher priority level than content datagrams. Consequently, a receiving device can process a key datagram in order to extract a key before routing associated content datagrams to a message stack. A key may be encrypted at one or two levels of encryption. Additionally, a new security plug-in software module may be deployed at a receiving device. The new security plug-in software module is configured as an installation package that is encrypted as a protected message and that is decrypted by the receiving device.

Techniques for computing error-bounded position and orientation (pose) of a panoramic camera in real-world environments. Such environments may include large interior spaces (e.g., buildings) A space may include multiple rooms. For example, a technique for capturing images associated with an environment includes the following steps/operations. First, respective placements of fiducials in the environment are determined so as to satisfy at least one constraint. Images are captured, with an image capture device (e.g., camera), associated with the environment with the fiducials placed therein. A pose estimation of the image capture device is then determined based on projections of the fiducials in the captured images. The pose estimation may be optimized so as to obtain an optimal pose per image. Also, the fiducial placements may be optimized so as to obtain optimal fiducial placements. Then at least one constraint may include a constraint associated with the number of visible fiducials, a constraint associated with a distance from a viewpoint to a fiducial, and/or a constraint associated with an angle subtended by pairs of fiducials.
