Shift : A Technique For Operating Pen-Based Interfaces Using Touch . Retrieving the stylus of a pen-based device takes time and requires a second hand . Especially for short intermittent interactions many users therefore choose to use their bare fingers . Although convenient , this increases targeting times and error rates . We argue that the main reasons are the occlusion of the target by the user's finger and ambiguity about which part of the finger defines the selection point . We propose a pointing technique we call Shift that is designed to address these issues . When the user touches the screen , Shift creates a callout showing a copy of the occluded screen area and places it in a non-occluded location . The callout also shows a pointer representing the selection point of the finger . Using this visual feedback (user input) , users guide the pointer into the target by moving their finger on the screen surface and commit the target acquisition by lifting the finger . Unlike existing techniques , Shift is only invoked when necessary-over large targets no callout is created and users enjoy the full performance of an unaltered touch screen . We report the results of a user study showing that with Shift participants can select small targets with much lower error rates than an unaided touch screen and that Shift is faster than Offset Cursor for larger targets . |

LucidTouch : A See-Through Mobile Device . Touch is a compelling input modality for interactive devices ; however , touch input on the small screen of a mobile device is problematic because a user's fingers Occlude the graphical elements lie wishes to work with . In this paper , we present LucidTouch , a mobile device that addresses this limitation by allowing the user to control the application by touching the back of the device . The key to making this usable is what we call pseudo-transparency : by overlaying an image of the user's hands onto the screen , we create the illusion of the mobile device itself being semi-transparent . This pseudo-transparency allows users to accurately acquire tat-gets while not Occluding the screen with their fingers and hand . LucidTouch also Supports multi-touch input , allowing users to operate the device simultaneously with all 10 fingers . We present initial study results that indicate that many users found touching on the back to be preferable to touching on the front , due to reduced occlusion , higher precision (display system) , and the ability to make multi-finger input . |
| US9645663B2 CLAIM 2 . The display system (higher precision) according to claim 1 , wherein the gestural software application is configured to produce the first mode of response in the active touchscreen region . |

LATENT PERCEPTUAL MAPPING WITH DATA-DRIVEN VARIABLE-LENGTH ACOUSTIC UNITS FOR TEMPLATE-BASED SPEECH RECOGNITION . In recent work , we introduced Latent Perceptual Mapping (LPM) [1] , a new frame (second mode) work for acoustic modeling suitable for template-like speech recognition (first mode) . The basic idea is to leverage a reduced dimensionality description of the observations to derive acoustic prototypes that are closely aligned with perceived acoustic events . Our initial work adopted a bag-of-frames strategy to represent relevant acoustic information within speech segments . In this paper , we extend this approach by better integrating temporal information into the LPM feature extraction . Specifically , we use variable-length units to represent acoustic events at the supra-frame level , in order to benefit from finer temporal alignment (first portion) s when deriving the acoustic prototypes . The outcome can be viewed as a generalization of both conventional template-based approaches and recently proposed sparse representation solutions . This extension is experimentally validated on a context-independent phoneme classification task using the TIMIT corpus . |

Transparent Conductive-polymer Strain Sensors For Touch Input Sheets Of Flexible Displays . A transparent conductive polymer-based strain-sensor array , designed especially for touch input sheets of flexible displays , was developed . A transparent conductive polymer , namely poly(3 , 4-ethylenedioxythiophene) : polystyrenesulfonate (PEDOT : PSS) , was utilized owing to its strength under repeated mechanical bending . PEDOT : PSS strain sensors with a thickness of 130 nm exhibited light transmittance of 92% , which is the same as the transmittance of ITO electrodes widely used in flat panel display (touchscreen layer) s . We demonstrated that the sensor array on a flexible sheet was able to sustain mechanical bending 300 times at a bending radius of 5 mm . The strain sensor shows a gauge factor of 5 . 2 . The touch point on a flexible sheet could be detected from histograms of the outputs of the strain sensors when the sheet was pushed with an input force of 5 N . The touch input could be detected on the flexible sheet with a curved surface (radius of curvature of 20 mm) . These results show that the developed transparent conductive polymer-based strain-sensor array is applicable to touch input sheets of mechanically bendable displays . |

Transparent Conductive-polymer Strain Sensors For Touch Input Sheets Of Flexible Displays . A transparent conductive polymer-based strain-sensor array , designed especially for touch input sheets of flexible displays , was developed . A transparent conductive polymer , namely poly(3 , 4-ethylenedioxythiophene) : polystyrenesulfonate (PEDOT : PSS) , was utilized owing to its strength under repeated mechanical bending . PEDOT : PSS strain sensors with a thickness of 130 nm exhibited light transmittance of 92% , which is the same as the transmittance of ITO electrodes widely used in flat panel display (touchscreen layer) s . We demonstrated that the sensor array on a flexible sheet was able to sustain mechanical bending 300 times at a bending radius of 5 mm . The strain sensor shows a gauge factor of 5 . 2 . The touch point on a flexible sheet could be detected from histograms of the outputs of the strain sensors when the sheet was pushed with an input force of 5 N . The touch input could be detected on the flexible sheet with a curved surface (radius of curvature of 20 mm) . These results show that the developed transparent conductive polymer-based strain-sensor array is applicable to touch input sheets of mechanically bendable displays . |

Back-Off Language Model Compression . With the availability of large amounts of training data relevant to speech recognition (first mode) scenarios , scalability becomes a very productive way to improve language model performance . We present a technique that represents a back-off n-gram language model using arrays of integer values and thus renders it amenable to effective block compression . We propose a few such compression algorithms and evaluate the resulting language model along two dimensions : memory footprint , and speed reduction relative to the uncompressed one . We experimented with a model that uses a 32-bit word vocabulary (at most 4B words) and log-probabilities/back-off-weights quantized to 1 byte , respectively . The best compression algorithm achieves 2 . 6 bytes/n-gram at approximate to 18X slower than uncompressed . For faster LM operation we found it feasible to represent the LM at approximate to 4 . 0 bytes/n-gram , and approximate to 3X slower than the uncompressed LM . The memory footprint of a LM containing one billion n-grams can thus be reduced to 3-4 Gbytes without impacting its speed too much . |
