TLDR
In this article, the authors described a system for processing touch inputs with respect to a multipoint sensing device and identifying at least one multipoint gesture based on the data from the multi-point sensing device.Abstract:
Methods and systems for processing touch inputs are disclosed. The invention in one respect includes reading data from a multipoint sensing device such as a multipoint touch screen where the data pertains to touch input with respect to the multipoint sensing device, and identifying at least one multipoint gesture based on the data from the multipoint sensing device.read more

Exposing non-authoring features through document status information in an out-space user interface
TL;DR: In this paper, an out-space actuator is selected to access an in-space user interface for a document editor program, which includes an expanded feature selection surface and status panes.
Patent
Instantaneous speaking of content on touch devices
TL;DR: In this article, a gesture can be detected on a touchscreen for causing text to be spoken, and a determination can be made based on size, position, and other attributes as to which portion of displayed text should be spoken.
Patent
Accelerometer-based tapping user interface
TL;DR: A CE device for displaying the time can incorporate an accelerometer to provide various features and enhancements as discussed by the authors, e.g., tapping of the housing as sensed by the accelerometer may be used for controlling various application modes of the device.

Introduction to Operations Research
TL;DR: The Simplex Method duality theory and sensitivity analysis for linear programming has been studied extensively in the field of operations research as mentioned in this paper, including the application of queueing theory inventory theory forecasting Markovian decision processes and applications decision analysis simulation.
Patent
Method and apparatus for integrating manual input
TL;DR: In this paper, a simple proximity transduction circuit is placed under each electrode to maximize the signal-to-noise ratio and to reduce wiring complexity, and segmentation processing of each proximity image constructs a group of electrodes corresponding to each distinguishable contacts and extracts shape, position and surface proximity features for each group.

User interface
TL;DR: A user interface is that portion of an interactive computer system that communicates with the user as mentioned in this paper. User interfaces include any aspect of the system that is visible to the user, such as a keyboard, mouse, or display.
Patent
Object position detector with edge motion feature and gesture recognition
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a method of generating a signal comprising providing a capacitive touch sensor pad including a matrix of X and Y conductors, developing capacitance profiles in one of an X direction and a Y direction from the matrix, and determining an occurrence of a single gesture through an examination of the capacitance profile, the single gesture including an application of at least two objects on the capacitive sensor pad.
