Child or Adult? Inferring Smartphone Users' Age Group from Touch Measurements Alone
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a technique that classifies users’ age group, i.e., child or adult, from touch coordinates captured on touch-screen devices. Our technique delivered 86.5% accuracy (user-independent) on a dataset of 119 participants (89 children ages 3 to 6) when classifying each touch event one at a time and up to 99% accuracy when using a window of 7+ consecutive touches. Our results establish that it is possible to reliably classify a smartphone user on the fly as a child or an adult with high accuracy using only basic data about their touches, and will inform new, automatically adaptive interfaces for touch-screen devices.

I n this emerging era of pervasive computing, we interact with and rapidly switch among a diverse set of digital devices. We tend to transition from a smartphone to a notebook when arriving in the office, and when we return home, we often switch to a tablet. In between, we might use large wall-mounted displays, car navigation systems, selfcheckout kiosks at retail stores, and home security or s...

متن کاملInferring Smartphone Users’ Handwritten Patterns by Using Motion Sensors
Mobile devices including smartphones and wearable devices are increasingly gaining popularity as platforms for collecting and sharing sensor data, such as the accelerometer, gyroscope, and rotation sensor. These sensors are used to improve the convenience of smartphone users, e.g., supporting the mobile UI motionbased commands. Although these motion sensors do not require users’ permissions, th...
متن کاملTouchLogger: Inferring Keystrokes on Touch Screen from Smartphone Motion
Attacks that use side channels, such as sound and electromagnetic emanation, to infer keystrokes on physical keyboards are ineffective on smartphones without physical keyboards. We describe a new side channel, motion, on touch screen smartphones with only soft keyboards. Since typing on different locations on the screen causes different vibrations, motion data can be used to infer the keys bein...
متن کاملSilentSense: Silent User Identification via Dynamics of Touch and Movement Behavioral Biometrics
With the increased popularity of smartphones, various security threats and privacy leakages targeting them are discovered and investigated. In this work, we present SilentSense, a framework to authenticate users silently and transparently by exploiting dynamics mined from the user touch behavior biometrics and the micro-movement of the device caused by user’s screen-touch actions. We build a “t...
