Abstract:
A method of classifying content material of a sequence of image frames, comprising:identifying at least one object image in an initial image frame of the sequence of image frames, the at least one object image including one or more regions of facial color in the initial image frame and the one or more regions of facial color are processed to identify a select region as the at least one object image, determining at least one object trajectory associated with the at least one object image based on subsequent frames of the sequence of image frames, and maintaining a video level parameter associated with the sequence of image frames, the video level parameter including: an object trajectory count of the one or more object trajectories, an average duration of the one or more object trajectories, and a frame count of the sequence of image frames; and classifying the content material of the sequence of image frames based on the video level parameters.
