Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a method of providing user categorization from computer pointer interaction, comprising the steps of: creating a plurality of different pointer data profiles based on initial user sessions and storing said created pointer data profiles in the form of pointer data profile entries in a pointer data profile database, wherein said pointer data profile is obtained from collected user activity data generated by a pointing device; and categorizing each user using the stored pointer data profiles at an onset of subsequent user sessions.

Claims (11)

1 . A method of providing user profile detection from a pointing device, comprising the steps of:

creating, using at least one processor, a plurality of pointer data profiles based on initial user sessions;

storing the created pointer data profiles in the form of pointer data profile entries in a pointer data profile database, wherein each pointer data profile is based on collected user activity data generated by the pointing device; and

categorizing a user based on the stored pointer data profiles at an onset of a user session.

2 . The method according to claim 1 , further comprising continuously performing user categorization during subsequent user sessions.

3 . The method according to claim 1 , further comprising controlling at least one type of computer access based on the categorization.

4 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the collected user activity data are parameters that represent raw mouse movement events and raw mouse operation events.

5 . A computer readable medium that stores instruction executable by one or more processors to perform a method of providing user profile detection from a pointing device, comprising instructions for:

creating, using at least one processor, a plurality of pointer data profiles based on initial user sessions;

storing the created pointer data profiles in the form of pointer data profile entries in a pointer data profile database, wherein each pointer data profile is based on collected user activity data generated by the pointing device; and

categorizing a user based on the stored pointer data profiles at an onset of a user session.
