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

Portable electronic device with relative gesture recognition mode
TL;DR: In this paper, a computer program executable on a portable electronic device having a touch screen sensor is provided, which includes an input mode switching module configured to receive a mode switch user input to switch between a direct input mode and a relative gesture recognition mode.
Patent
Acoustic multi-touch sensor panel
TL;DR: In this article, a beamed acoustic wave traveling in a substantially linear path along the surface of the material is formed by a plurality of transducers, e.g., a phased array coupled to the surface.
Patent
Strengthening variable thickness glass
TL;DR: In this article, the use of multi-bath chemical processing for a glass article can facilitate controlled chemical strengthening of glass articles, which is well suited for use in consumer products such as consumer electronic devices (e.g., portable electronic devices).
Patent
Device, method, and graphical user interface for determining whether to scroll or select contents
TL;DR: In this paper, a focus selector is over the content of a touch-sensitive display, and a gesture including a first contact on the touchsensitive surface and movement of the first contact across the touch sensitive surface that corresponds to movement of a focus selector on the display is detected.
Patent
Distributed personal assistant
TL;DR: In this paper, an exemplary method for using a virtual assistant may include, at an electronic device configured to transmit and receive data, receiving a user request for a service from virtual assistant, determining at least one task to perform in response to the user request; estimating at least 1 performance characteristic for completion of the at least task with the electronic device, based on at least heuristic; based on the estimating, determining whether to execute the task at the device, causing the execution of the task outside the device; and transmitting the executable code from 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.
