Abstract

"The analysis of violent images in digital forensics cases can take a long time and be traumatising for digital investigators. Artificial intelligence (AI) techniques can aid in automating the categorisation of violent images, and datasets such as the Hollywood violent scenes dataset (https://www.technicolor.com/dream/research-innovation/violent-scenes-dataset) can be used to aid the categorisation. This project involves developing a tool which uses AI techniques to categorise violent images. Please note that you will not be required to look at 'real' violent images, the images in the dataset referenced herein are from Hollywood films such as Reservoir Dogs, Armageddon, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Billy Elliot, Kill Bill 1 and The Wizard of Oz Useful reference(s): C.H.
