Gesture fingerprinting

1. A computer-implemented method comprising:

receiving, using one or more computing devices, input from a user entered via an input device;

determining, using the one or more computing devices, a gesture and one or more attributes associated with the gesture based on the input;

matching, using the one or more computing devices, the gesture to a gesture model for the user using the one or more attributes, the gesture model being initially patterned after how a segment of users input the gesture to perform an action;

receiving, using the one or more computing devices, one or more subsequent inputs from the user entered via the input device to perform the action;

determining, by the one or more computing devices, based on the one or more subsequent inputs, whether the gesture model is appropriate for the user; and

responsive to determining the gesture model is not appropriate for the user, automatically adjusting, using the one or more computing devices, the gesture model by self-adapting the gesture model to improve overall experience for the user in a future iteration.

2. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising:

defining, using the one or more computing devices, a plurality of gesture models including the gesture model, the plurality of gesture models being associated with a plurality of users including the user.

3. The computer-implemented method of claim 2 , wherein the plurality of gesture models represent a plurality of different variations of gestures performable by users using computing devices.

4. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the gesture model is predefined for a particular variation of gesture and stored in a data store.

5. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the input reflects an input provided by the user using a touch-based user interface.

6. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein matching the gesture to the gesture model associated with the user using the one or more attributes includes analyzing the one or more attributes to determine a variation of the gesture and querying a data store for a matching gesture model based on the variation.

7. A system comprising:

one or more processors; and

one or more memories storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the system to perform operations including:

receiving input from a user entered via an input device;

determining a gesture and one or more attributes associated with the gesture based on the input;

matching the gesture to a gesture model for the user using the one or more attributes, the gesture model being initially patterned after how a segment of users input the gesture to perform an action;

receiving one or more subsequent inputs from the user entered via the input device to perform the action;

determining, based on the one or more subsequent inputs, whether the gesture model is appropriate for the user; and

responsive to determining the gesture model is not appropriate for the user, automatically adjusting the gesture model by self-adapting the gesture model to improve overall experience for the user in a future iteration.

8. The system of claim 7 , wherein the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further cause the system to perform operations including:

defining a plurality of gestures models including the gesture model, the plurality of gesture models being associated with a plurality of users including the user.

9. The system of claim 8 , wherein the plurality of gesture models represent a plurality of different variations of gestures performable by users using computing devices.

10. The system of claim 7 , wherein the gesture model is predefined for a particular variation of gesture and stored in a data store.

11. The system of claim 7 , wherein the input reflects an input provided by the user using a touch-based user interface.

12. The system of claim 7 , wherein matching the gesture to the gesture model associated with the user using the one or more attributes includes analyzing the one or more attributes to determine a variation of the gesture and querying a data store for a matching gesture model based on the variation.

13. A system comprising:

one or more processors;

an interpretation module executable by the one or more processors to interpret a gesture and one or more attributes associated with the gesture based on input received from a user on a computing device via an input device;

an application module coupled to the interpretation module or a data store to receive a gesture model and executable by the one or more processors to match the gesture to a gesture model for the user using the one or more attributes, the gesture model being initially patterned after how a segment of users input the gesture to perform an action; and

a learning module executable by the one or more processors to:

receive one or more subsequent inputs from the user entered via the input device to perform the action;

determine, based on the one or more subsequent inputs, whether the gesture model is appropriate for the user; and

responsive to determining the gesture model is not appropriate for the user, automatically adjust the gesture model by self-adapting the gesture model to improve overall experience for the user in a future iteration.

14. The system of claim 13 , further comprising:

the data store storing a plurality of gestures models including the gesture model, the plurality of gesture models being associated with a plurality of users including the user.

15. The system of claim 14 , wherein the plurality of gesture models represent a plurality of different variations of gestures performable by users using computing devices.
