abstract = "The ability to filter improper content from multimedia sources
based on visual content has important applications, since
text-based filters are clearly insufficient against erroneous
and/or malicious associations between text and actual content. In
this paper, we investigate a method for detection of nudity in
videos based on a bag-of-visual-features representation for frames
and an associated voting scheme. Bag-of-Visual-Features (BoVF)
approaches have been successfully applied to object recognition
and scene classification, showing robustness to occlusion and also
to the several kinds of variations that normally curse object
detection methods. To the best of our knowledge, only two
proposals in the literature use BoVF for nude detection in still
images, and no other attempt has been made at applying BoVF for
videos. Nevertheless, the results of our experiments show that
this approach is indeed able to provide good recognition rates for
nudity even at the frame level and with a relatively low sampling
ratio. Also, the proposed voting scheme significantly enhances the
recognition rates for video segments, achieving, in the best case,
a value of 93.2% of correct classification, using a sampling ratio
of 1/15 frames. Finally, a visual analysis of some particular
cases indicates possible sources of misclassifications.",
