Abstract: The disclosed embodiments provide a convenient way for users to access segregated work spaces on mobile devices. A game-like multi-level interactive approach is used to prompt users for input to verify their identity. Multiple identity verification attributes can be collected at each level of interaction. Authentication is achieved when a settable level of user identification confidence is reached. This can potentially reduce the amount of interaction needed as compared to requiring a user to type in a long, cryptic password.

Abstract: A method of managing an aggregate document includes a) presenting management options on a display device associated with a computing device in response to a user using the computing device to identify or select an aggregate document to be created of modified, b) presenting search selection options on the display device in response to the user selecting an embedded search service from a plurality of choices of embedded services, c) presenting a search result list on the display device after the user entered one or more search terms in a search text box and activated a search control and in response to receiving search results from a corresponding search conducted by the search engine, and d) adding a media content record to the aggregate document in response to the user activating an add control associated with a corresponding search result item.

Abstract: In a mobile communication device having segregated workspaces respectively associated with a plurality of users, methods and systems are provided for confirming an authorized user in an appropriate account including a corresponding one of the segregated workspaces. Start-up processing of the device includes taking a picture of an authorized image of the authorized user with the device camera. Current activities of the device by the user are monitored relative to a predetermined set of device activities and usage rules. Certain activities are indicative of a change in user of the device from the authorized user. Upon detection of such a change, the current image of the current user of the device is acquired with the device camera. The current image is compared with the authorized image and if the comparison fails to detect a match, the current user is prompted to initiate a log-in process.

Abstract: Methods and a system for a natural language control interface are provided to enable a user to modify colors in a digital image. A textual interface is provided to select a color to be modified within the image and a direction of change for the modification. A swipe interface is provided to select a magnitude and polarity for the modification. Actions on the textual and swipe interface are converted to natural language commands which are in turn used to derive a color transformation that is applied to relevant portions of the image to yield a modified image. The modifications are displayed in real time for a user to observe as they are inputted.
