Heuristic analysis of image is performed to detect pornographic content. Pixels of an image representing a flesh-tone are identified. A heuristic analysis of the image is performed to classify the image as being pornographic or not. The analysis uses measures of a set of predetermined characteristics of the identified pixels as a heuristic to indicate a likelihood that the identified pixels contain pornographic content or not. Particular characteristics used are: the thickness of a region of identified pixels; the area of regions of adjacent identified pixels; the flatness of regions of adjacent identified pixels; the distance of pixels from the centre of the image; the degree of texture of regions adjacent identified pixels; the likelihood of the identified pixels being flesh-tone, and the area of the identified pixels. The heuristic analysis is layered, comprising a plurality of tests, each test using the set of predetermined characteristics with differing degrees of significance attributed to each characteristic. |
