Hi EveryBody:

Is there any way by using Vb.Net 2003 to made an application that can
Identify the content of any picture ?

For example:

If I have adult content picture can I made an application that Identify this
picture has adult content by using the picture name or any thing else.

any help or redirection will be appreciated

That's pretty much a mission impossible. First of, filenames. They're as
useless as anything (pic1.jpg, pic2.jpg doesn't tell you anything).
Second the content itself. Unless you're going to write a very
sophisticated image analyzing algorithm you're screwed (scuse the pun).
Even if you had the knowledge to do that it would probably yield too
many false positives.

Simplest form would be to calculate the amount of skin(colour) in a
picture. When there's alot you may have some naked people there. On the
other hand it may just as well be a closeup portrait of Mother Theresa.
Do you see the problem?

You could also try shape recognition. But then you'd have to define
every possible position and act known to man and from every angle to be
able to positively recognise it.

That's why I think it's pretty much mission impossible. You'd be better
of installing SurfNanny or something similar (assuming you want to write
a porn blocker)
