  • Patent number: 8924377
    Abstract: Systems and methods for customizing a display of records. In an embodiment, a plurality of records are identified, and a virtual map comprising representations of the records is generated. In response to a selection of a property attribute, a range of values for the attribute is determined and divided into a plurality of segments. Each record is associated with one of the segments, and a graph is generated comprising visual representations. Each visual representation in the graph corresponds to one of the segments and comprises a representation of a number of the records which are associated with the corresponding segment. In response to selection of one or more of the visual representations, the virtual map is updated to visually identify a subset of the representations of the records which are associated with the segment corresponding to the selected visual representation(s).

  • Patent number: 8433706
    Abstract: Systems and methods for customizing the display of a set of data using a preference stack interface. The preference stack interface allows a user to interact with an ordered list of criterion objects. Each criterion object corresponds to an attribute of the data set to be presented to the user. In response to a change in the order of the criterion objects in the preference stack, a rendering of the dataset can be updated to differently and visually emphasize items according to which criterion objects each item meets.

  • Publication number: 20070182762
    Abstract: A novel, easy to use, and computational efficient rubber sheeting algorithm is designed for interactive image registration in a web-based application environment. The algorithm has two steps, including a piece-wise linear interpolation step to interactively find a suitable set of control points and displacement vectors, and a following optional global radial basis wrap step to generate smoother result using the final control point set. A dynamic Delaunay triangulation method is designed to efficiently update the decomposition of the image. Natural and intuitive wrapping result will be dynamically generated in real-time while the user interactively insert, delete or drag a control point. The number of control points is not limited, and a large number of control points can be used if necessary without compromising the performance of the algorithm.
