Publication number: 20150063653Abstract: An optical image of a source document is captured. Two or more source document image test regions are then defined/determined. An optical image scan is performed on each source document image test region to determine if there are identifiable alpha-numeric characters or symbols present. If one or more of the source document image test regions are determined not to contain identifiable alpha-numeric characters, the captured optical image of the source document is determined to be of insufficient quality to identify and extract individual characters and symbols and it is recommended that optical images of source documents determined to be of insufficient quality to identify and extract individual characters and symbols be re-captured using an image capture device.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 28, 2013Publication date: March 5, 2015Applicant: Intuit Inc.Inventors: Sunil Madhani, Anu Sreepathy, Samir Kakkar

Publication number: 20150030241Abstract: Data extraction templates are created and associated with source documents from a specific source document source. One or more known pictorial representations associated with one or more source document sources are then identified and key data is generated for the known pictorial representations. Source document data is then obtained and analyzed to identify potential pictorial representation data. Key data associated with the potential pictorial representation data is then generated and compared with the key data associated with one or more known pictorial representations and if the key data matches, the data extraction template associated with the matched known pictorial representations is obtained and used for identifying and extracting data from the source document data.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 24, 2013Publication date: January 29, 2015Applicant: Intuit Inc.Inventors: Samir Kakkar, Anu Sreepathy, Sunil Madhani, Mithun U.

Patent number: 8923619Abstract: A viewfinder screen display is generated and positioned such that a source document is displayed in the viewfinder screen display. Source document image blocks corresponding to different portions of the source document are then defined. For each source document image block, the image capture parameter of an image capture device is set to an optimized image capture parameter setting for the source document image block. The image capture device then captures an image block optimized image of the source document optimized for the source document image block. The optimized source document image blocks are then extracted from each image block optimized image of the source document. The extracted optimized source document image blocks are then aggregated and used to construct an image capture parameter optimized image of the source document.Type: GrantFiled: June 11, 2013Date of Patent: December 30, 2014Assignee: Intuit Inc.Inventors: Sunil Madhani, Anu Sreepathy, Samir Kakkar

Patent number: 8798006Abstract: In some embodiments, a system and method for substantially real-time comparison of quality of interfaces by mobile devices over heterogeneous networks is disclosed. The method can be performed using a dynamic and rapid comparison by distributed hosts, using a minimal number of injected network packets, using minimal path quality metrics, which path quality metrics are independent of how a Qol is measured, and in a manner suitable for both wireline and wireless networks.Type: GrantFiled: December 20, 2010Date of Patent: August 5, 2014Assignees: Toshiba America Research, Inc., Telcordia Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Eric van den Berg, Sunil Madhani, Tao Zhang

Patent number: 8401594Abstract: A system and method for maximizing the standby time of mobile communication devices that have WiFi or other high energy-consuming network interfaces, by predicting in real time actionable silent periods (ASPs) of the interface and shutting the interface down during these ASPs. Standby times are significantly increased, resulting in longer periods of operation before battery charging is required, while keeping minimal the probabilities of missing incoming data packets when the interface is turned off.Type: GrantFiled: May 4, 2009Date of Patent: March 19, 2013Assignees: Toshiba America Research, Inc., Telcordia Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Tao Zhang, Sunil Madhani, Provin Gurung, Eric Van Den Berg

Patent number: 8150465Abstract: Sensors mounted on vehicles (e.g., buses, taxis, police cars) and public personnel (e.g., policemen) are used to monitor various conditions and situations such as air quality, potential biological and chemical attacks, and road and traffic conditions. The invention improves upon the typical approach that deploys fixed sensors at every geographical position of interest. The total number of required sensors and the size and the complexity of the network infrastructure required to connect the sensors are reduced and simplified. A method for estimating the number of mobile sensors required to cover a region of interest also is disclosed. A relatively small number of mobile sensors may be sufficient to cover a large area at a lower cost and less complexity than a fixed sensor network.Type: GrantFiled: September 29, 2009Date of Patent: April 3, 2012Assignees: Toshiba America Research, Inc., Telcordia Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Tao Zhang, Sunil Madhani, Raziq Yaqub
