Publication number: 20240094828Abstract: Technologies are presented herein in support of system and methods for user recognition using motion sensor data. Embodiments of the present invention concern a system and method for partitioning a captured motion signal of a user into segments. One or more sets of features are extracted from the segmented motion signal by applying a plurality of feature extraction algorithms to the segments, where the feature extraction algorithms include Convolutional Vision Transformers (CVT) and convolutional gated recurrent units (convGRU) model algorithms. A subset of discriminative features are selected from the sets of extracted features. The subset of features is then analyzed, and a classification score is generated to classify the user as a genuine user or an imposter user.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 30, 2023Publication date: March 21, 2024Applicant: VERIDIUM IP LIMITEDInventors: Radu Tudor Ionescu, Adrian Ionut Ungureanu, Ionut Dumitran

Patent number: 11329980Abstract: Secure communications are provided between a user computing device and a server computing device. An enrollment request is received from a user computing device that is configured via a distributed client software application and is processed. The enrollment request is usable to enroll the user computing device in a network and includes an encrypted partial initial biometric vector associated with a user. An authentication request is processed that is subsequently received that includes an encrypted partial second biometric vector and that is associated with a user of the user computing device. A comparison of the encrypted partial initial biometric vector and the encrypted partial second biometric vector is performed, and a value representing the comparison is generated and transmitted to the user computing device. The user computing device is authenticated where the value is above a minimum threshold.Type: GrantFiled: July 23, 2019Date of Patent: May 10, 2022Assignee: VERIDIUM IP LIMITEDInventors: John Raymond Callahan, Asem Othman

Patent number: 11210380Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for authorizing a user to access an access-controlled environment. The system includes a system server platform that communicates with fixed PC's, servers and mobile devices (e.g., smartphones) operated by users. The systems and methods described herein enable a series of operations whereby a user attempting to access an access-controlled environment is prompted to biometrically authenticate using the user's preregistered mobile device. Biometric authentication can include capturing images of the user's biometric features, encoding the features as a biometric identifier, comparing the biometric identifier to a previously generated biometric identifier and determining liveness. In addition, the authentication system can further authorize the user and electronically grant access to the access-controlled environment.Type: GrantFiled: May 14, 2020Date of Patent: December 28, 2021Assignee: VERIDIUM IP LIMITEDInventors: Hector Hoyos, Jason Braverman, Scott Streit, Geoffrey Xiao, Jonathan Francis Mather

Patent number: 11170369Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for authorizing a user in connection with a transaction at a transaction terminal. The systems and methods described herein enable a series of operations whereby a user using a mobile device can capture a code that uniquely identifies a transaction terminal. In addition the mobile device can also capture a user's biometrics, generate a biometric identifier and biometrically verify the user's identity by comparing the biometric identifier to a previously generated biometric identifier. If the user is biometrically authenticated the mobile device can generate a transaction request including, a user identifier, a mobile device identifier, and the transaction terminal code and transmit the transaction request to a system server. Based on the transaction request, the system server can further authenticate the user and/or approve the requested transaction. If the user is authenticated, the system server can instruct the terminal to advance the financial transaction.Type: GrantFiled: September 7, 2016Date of Patent: November 9, 2021Assignee: Veridium IP LimitedInventors: Hector Hoyos, Scott Streit

Patent number: 10691939Abstract: Technologies are presented herein in support of a system and method for performing iris identification and verification using mobile devices. Embodiments of the present invention concern a method for authenticating a user with a mobile device that includes steps for capturing imagery of a user's face, analyzing the imagery to identify the portion of the image depicting the user's eyes and segmenting the eye image to isolate the iris image data and encoding the iris image data in iris template. The present disclosure further describes authenticating the user based on the encoded iris template and additional techniques for preventing erroneous authentication caused by spoofing. In some examples, the anti-spoofing techniques may include capturing one or more images of a user's eyes and analyzing the captured images for indications of liveness based on reflection characteristics depicted in the imagery.Type: GrantFiled: August 17, 2017Date of Patent: June 23, 2020Assignee: VERIDIUM IP LIMITEDInventors: Yiqun Xue, Jonathan Francis Mather
