Abstract: With the increasing amount of pornography being uploaded on the Internet today, arises the need to detect and block such pornographic websites, especially in Eastern cultural countries. Studying pornographic images and videos, show that explicit sensitive objects are typically one of the main charac-teristics portraying the unique aspect of pornography content. This paper proposed a classification method on pornographic visual content, which involved detecting sensitive objects using object detection algorithms. Initially, an object detection model is used to identify sensitive objects on visual content. The detection results are then used as high-level features combined with two other high-level features including skin body and human presence information. These high-level features finally are fed into a fusion Support Vector Machine (SVM) model, thus draw the eventual decision. Based on 800 videos from the NDPI-800 dataset and the 50.000 manually collected images, the evaluation results show that our proposed approach achieved 94.06% and 94.88% in Accuracy respectively, which can be compared with the cutting-edge pornographic classification methods. In addition, a pornographic alerting and blocking extension is developed for Google Chrome to prove the proposed architecture’s effectiveness and capability. Working with 200 websites, the extension achieved an outstanding result, which is 99.50% Accuracy in classification.
