Image Spam Buster - Hackathon submission for Mall91

Primary LanguagePythonMIT LicenseMIT

Problem Statement Description

Build a "Spam Buster" for user generated IMAGE content based on predefined text, links identified as "known bads", based on which the image should be classified as spam or not-spam. The "known bads" can be updated anytime. The "Spam Buster" would need to analyze at image level, identify text components inside image and build appropriate logic to give a score to the image. A similar use case is employed by Facebook Ads technology to identify if the image ad contains too much text or contains any objectionable text."


Solution

We build a flask based micro-service which gives a "Spaminess score" for any uploaded image. The score is derived by aggregating the scores from two models:

  1. Text based spam classifier - Text is extracted from the image and a pre-trained model runs on the text to classify text in respective bucket
  2. Image based spam classifier - Convolution neural network which classifies image as spam or not based on the image features
