Abstract: A computer-implemented method for summarizing receipts and grouping the receipts onto one or more invoices. The method includes receiving a number of receipts and a time period including a start date and an end date, summarizing the receipts in the number of receipts having an approval date in the time period to obtain a number of summarized receipts, and grouping the summarized receipts to obtain one or more grouped invoices based on two of a number of grouping rules, the number of grouping rules including grouping by supplier pay site code, grouping by payment currency, grouping by receipt number, to grouping by payment term, grouping by value date, grouping by invoice type, and grouping by tax rules.

Abstract: A computer-driven system amplifies a target region based on integrating eye gaze and manual operator input, thus reducing pointing time and operator fatigue. A gaze tracking apparatus monitors operator eye orientation while the operator views a video screen. Concurrently, the computer monitors an input indicator for mechanical activation or activity by the operator. According to the operator's eye orientation, the computer calculates the operator's gaze position. Also computed is a gaze area, comprising a sub-region of the video screen that includes the gaze position. The system determines a region of the screen to expand within the current gaze area when mechanical activation of the operator input device is detected. The graphical components contained are expanded, while components immediately outside of this radius may be contracted and/or translated, in order to preserve visibility of all the graphical components at all times.

Abstract: A digital object for distribution from a provider to a content user and a method of distribution of such an object is disclosed. The digital object comprises content and a tag containing data that is derived algorithmically from the content and from a secret not known to the content user. The tag is constructed such that the content user can, upon receipt of a communication from a requestor purporting to have the authority of the provider, perform an exchange of information with the requestor, and by inspection of the exchanged information and of the tag, determine whether the requestor is in possession of the secret and choose to act upon or not act upon the communication accordingly. The tag may additionally include a value that defines an access category that specifies the extent to which the owner wishes the content to be distributed. A server from which an object has been delivered to a third party can send a message to the third party to request, amongst other things, that the access category be changed. The third party can use the tag in the object to verify the authority of the request.

Abstract translation: 公开了一种用于从提供者分发给内容用户的数字对象以及这种对象的分发方法。 数字对象包括内容和标签，该标签包含从内容和内容用户未知的秘密算法导出的数据。 标签被构造成使得内容用户在接收到来自请求者的来自提供者的授权的请求者的通信时，可以与请求者进行信息交换，并且通过检查交换的信息和标签来确定 请求者是否拥有秘密，并选择对相应的通信采取行动。 标签可以另外包括定义访问类别的值，所述访问类别指定所有者希望内容被分发的程度。 将对象已经从其传送到第三方的服务器可以向第三方发送消息，以请求改变访问类别。 第三方可以使用对象中的标签来验证请求的权限。

Abstract: A pointing method uses eye-gaze as an implicit control channel. A user looks in a natural fashion at a target object as a button on a graphical user interface and then presses a manual selection key. Once the selection key is pressed, the present method uses probability analysis to determine a most probable target object and to highlight it. If the highlighted object is the target object, the user can select it by pressing a key such as the selection key once again. If the highlighted object is not the target object, the user can select another target object using additional keys to navigate to the intended target object.

Abstract translation: 指向方法使用眼睛凝视作为隐式控制通道。 用户以自然的方式将目标物体看作图形用户界面上的按钮，然后按下手动选择键。 一旦选择键被按下，本方法使用概率分析来确定最可能的目标对象并突出显示它。 如果突出显示的对象是目标对象，则用户可以通过再按一个键（如选择键）来选择它。 如果突出显示的对象不是目标对象，则用户可以使用附加键来选择另一个目标对象来导航到目标对象。
