Project Objective

The subject of the project is the development of information technology necessary to create a prototype of a high-performance system for the analysis and classification of photos, in particular of a pedophile nature, and its testing in real conditions. The maintenance-free data processing will minimize the contact of experts with the content of the photos.

In principle, the system will detect elements that are important from the process point of view, visible in the photo, such as silhouettes of people or animals, as well as selected parts of the body. Based on expert anthropometric knowledge, the system, after successful detection of a human figure, will assess the age of the person shown in the photo.

The system will also allow you to search for duplicate photos despite changing their form (e.g. changes in framing or retouching), as well as characteristic elements enabling the identification of the perpetrator or the place of the act (e.g. reading of the texts present in the photo, regardless of the angle in which they were presented).
