Web Form Authorship Verification via Intermediary Data
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing methods for identifying authorship of Internet content are often inaccurate or incomplete, as authorship information may not be present or valid, and there is a need for a reliable method to verify the authorship of content submitted through web forms.
Innovation Solution
A computer-implemented method that identifies a content submission form on a webpage, recognizes user submissions, and transmits verification data including publication address, user identification, and content data to a verification address for authorship verification, using a form submission handler and potentially incorporating content tokens for validation.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If authorship information is included in document text or structured data, then authorship identification is possible, but the information may be inaccurate or invalid
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a verification address as an intermediary component that receives verification data from the content submission form and independently verifies authorship claims. This intermediary verification mechanism allows the system to cross-check authorship information against published content, thereby improving reliability while maintaining identification capability.
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements feedback by transmitting verification data back to the verification address after content publication. The verification address then provides feedback on whether the authorship claim is valid by comparing submitted content with published content, enabling continuous improvement of authorship identification accuracy.
2Adaptability or versatility
If many documents do not include authorship information, then content can be published freely, but authorship verification becomes difficult
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by capturing verification data at the time of content submission through the content submission form. This preliminary capture of authorship claims and content data enables later verification against published content, allowing the system to handle documents that initially lack authorship information by verifying it post-submission.
3Measurement precision
If a verification system transmits multiple data types to a verification address, then authorship verification accuracy improves, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges multiple verification functions into a single verification address that receives and processes multiple data types (publication address data, user identification data, content data) simultaneously. This consolidation approach improves verification accuracy while managing system complexity by combining rather than multiplying separate verification components.

AI summary
Methods and apparatus related to identifying authorship of Internet content. Some implementations are directed to methods and apparatus for identifying a content submission form on a webpage, recognizing submission of content by a user via the content submission form, and transmitting verification data in response to submission of the content by the user. The verification data may include content data indicative of at least some of the content submitted for publication via the content submission form.
