20090019397 | Widget of Graphical User Interface and Method for Navigating Amongst Related Objects - The invention is directed to a widget of or in a graphical user interface for navigating amongst related objects. The widget is adapted for displaying first and second groups of objects within respective first and second visually linked display areas. The widget is further adapted, upon user selection of a relation between an object of the second group and a third group of objects, for displaying objects of the third group in the second display area and objects of the second group in the first display area. The invention also relates to a method for navigating amongst related objects, comprising a step of providing to a user a graphical user interface with such a widget. Lastly, the invention is directed to a computer program comprising code means for implementing the method and to a computer system comprising means for implementing the method. | 01-15-2009 |
20090150829 | METHOD FOR DISPLAYING ON-SCREEN DISPLAY - A method for displaying an on-screen display (OSD) is disclosed. An OSD with a first and second icons superimposed thereon is firstly rendered with a first color palette. The first and second icons are overlapped. The first icon is rendered with a second color palette and superposed over the originally displayed first icon. The second color palette is substantially similar to the first color palette but replaces an indexed color of the first color palette corresponding to the background color of the originally displayed first icon with a transparent color and another indexed color of the first color palette corresponding to the foreground color of the originally displayed first icon with a non-color color. The second icon is rendered with the first color palette and superposed over the originally displayed second icon. | 06-11-2009 |
20090319951 | Aggregating Service Components - Methods, systems, and computer program products for aggregating service components in a data processing system according to predefined aggregation rules. The method includes providing a plurality of visual elements, each visual element representing a corresponding service component; selecting a new visual element for addition to an aggregation structure; determining a set of eligible visual elements of eligible service components among the instantiated service components; associating a visual cue with the eligible visual elements; and aggregating the new service component to a selected eligible service component in the aggregation structure. The new service component is compatible for aggregation with each eligible service component according to the aggregation rules. The aggregation structure includes an aggregation of instantiated visual elements of instantiated service components to define an aggregated service according to the aggregation of the instantiated service components. | 12-24-2009 |
20100088644 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR IDENTIFYING REGIONS OF INTEREST IN A MEDICAL IMAGE - In a method and apparatus for identifying regions of interest in medical images of a subject, in particular images captured by a medical imaging apparatus, such as a PET scanner, a list of voxels of the image is obtained, and sorted according to a first variable. A user-selection of an initial voxel in the image is then registered, and at least one voxel or group of voxels from the sorted list is selected as a region of interest, according to a property of the at least one voxel or group in relation to the user-selected initial voxel. The image may be pre-processed to generate the sorted list of voxels, following which the user selection of the initial voxel is registered. | 04-08-2010 |
20110113378 | CONTEXTUAL ABNORMALITY CAPTCHAS - A method, computing device, and computer program product are provided for automatically generating contextual image tests implemented on a computer. An image is received by a computer. Sections of the image are altered to appear out of context or wrong to human users. The user must then identify the errors to pass the CAPTCHA. | 05-12-2011 |
20110276923 | Photo Stack - Solutions for providing iconography to entice users to interact with multimedia services. Some such solutions use a user supersystem as an interactive media enticement system. Dynamic, interactive “photo stack” iconography can presented on the user supersystem for enticing users to interact with multimedia functionality of the user supersystem. For example, a “photo stack” icon dynamically displays a “most recent” photo as a top photo on a virtual photo stack. In certain cases, clicking on the “photo stack” icon brings the user to a photo booth application, through which the user may create, edit, post, etc. photos. | 11-10-2011 |
