Publication number: 20070150944Abstract: A user authentication system and method for a communications network is provided. The credential authority publishes an accumulator and issues tokens and credentials to the users who are authorized to access a service. The user computes by himself a derived credential based on the credential issued by the credential authority, and proves to the verifier using the derived credential. If a new user is authorized, other users and the verifier need not update any data. If a user ever authorized is banned, i.e., his/her token is revoked, the credential authority computes the updated accumulator based on the token issued to the banned user, and publishes a revocation increment data comprising the updated accumulator and the increment data about the revoked token. Other users compute their updated credentials by themselves based on the updated revocation increment data received.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 17, 2006Publication date: June 28, 2007Inventors: Ke Zeng, Tomoyuki Fujita, Min-Yu Hsueh

Publication number: 20070143608Abstract: The invention provides a malleable pseudonym certificate system and method for a communication network. According to one embodiment of the invention, a user acquires a root proof from a trusted entity, generates one or more pseudonym certificates based on the root proof, and sends anonymous public keys each equipped with one pseudonym certificate to verifiers. Through use of the pseudonym certificate, the verifier believes that the user's anonymous public key is certified by the trusted entity. The pseudonym certificate contains no information by which the verifier can figure out the real identity of the user. With the malleable pseudonym certificate system, the trusted entity needs only certify once for the user's root public key. The user can generate by him or herself mass anonymous public keys where each anonymous public key is equipped with a distinct pseudonym certificate.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 20, 2006Publication date: June 21, 2007Inventors: Ke Zeng, Tomoyuki Fujita, Min-Yu Hsueh

Publication number: 20070130465Abstract: The invention provides a virtual subscriber identifier system and method of a communication network. According to one embodiment of the invention, a subscriber generates virtual subscriber identifiers by him/her self, generates a subscriber identity mapping data by which a identifier service provider can figure out the real identifier of the owner of the virtual subscriber identifier, and informs peers of the virtual subscriber identifiers. The subscriber identify mapping data may be a data in which a virtual subscriber identifier is associated to the real identifier of the subscriber, and be registered by the subscriber with the identifier service provider. A peer generates a communicating request including a virtual subscriber identifier as target, and sends the request to the identifier service provider, the identifier service provider determines the real identifier of the subscriber from the subscriber identity mapping data, and forwards the communication between the peer and the subscriber's terminal.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 26, 2006Publication date: June 7, 2007Inventors: Ke ZENG, Xiao-Wei Liu, Xiao-Han Wang, Ya-Bo Wang, Hui-Feng Liu, Tomoyuki Fujita, Min-Yu Hsueh

Publication number: 20060206313Abstract: This invention provides a dictionary learning method, said method comprising the steps of: learning a lexicon and a Statistical Language Model from an untagged corpus; integrating the lexicon, the Statistical Language Mode and subsidiary word encoding information into a small size dictionary. And this invention also provides an input method on a user terminal device using the dictionary with Part-of-Speech information and a Part-of-Speech Bi-gram Model added, and a user terminal device using the same. Therefore, sentence level prediction and word level prediction can be given by the user terminal device and the input is speeded up by using the dictionary which is searched by a Patricia Tree index of a dictionary index.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 24, 2006Publication date: September 14, 2006Inventors: Liqin Xu, Min-Yu Hsueh
