`power is held constant.”
`“A close, but not necessarily exact or the
`closest, match of a feature vector, compact
`electronic representation, or set of extracted
`features to another, wherein the distance or
`difference between the two feature vectors,
`compact electronic representations, or sets of
`extracted features falls within a defined
`threshold.”

`identify a close, but not necessarily exact or the
`closest, match of a feature vector, compact

`as opposed to from
`information added or
`appended to the work.”
