Abstract

A system can be configured to determine whether a user is a human or a computer based on whether the user is capable of intuitive-based decision making to identify requested features. The system can generate a challenge that includes a question emphasizing mental shortcuts and associations developed through social and cultural interactions. The challenge also includes one or more media objects that are distinguishable to a human user due to the mental shortcuts and associations that permit selection of the correct media object in light of the question. Intuitive connections between statements and media objects are often difficult to implement within computer programs and algorithms due to the two-stage challenge requiring both comprehension and recognition of important features.
