Pornography Detection

Detect pornographic image in three dimensions (normal, sexy, porn) and return confidence scores.

Applicable scenarios

Applicable to fast processing of pornographic content, thus helping to reduce auditing manpower, effectively reduce the risk of pornography, and improve the efficiency of information processing.

API test

You can use the following tools (API explorer, Postman, cURL, Python, Java) to test calling APIs.

API Explorer

Prerequisites

When deploying the solution, you need to：

  • set the parameter API Explorer to yes.
  • set the parameter API Gateway Authorization to NONE.

Otherwise, you can only view the API definitions in the API explorer, but cannot test calling API online.

Steps

  1. Sign in to the AWS CloudFormation console.

  2. On the Stacks page, select the solution’s root stack. Do not select the NESTED stack.

  3. Choose the Outputs tab, and find the URL for APIExplorer.

  4. Click the URL to access the API explorer. The APIs that you have selected during deployment will be displayed.

  5. For the API you want to test, click the down arrow to display the request method.

  6. Choose the Try it out button, and enter the correct Body data to test API and check the test result.
  7. Make sure the format is correct, and choose Execute.
  8. Check the returned result in JSON format in the Responses body. If needed, copy or download the result.
  9. Check the Response headers.
  10. (Optional) Choose Clear next to the Execute button to clear the request body and responses.

Postman (AWS_IAM Authentication）

  1. Sign in to the AWS CloudFormation console.
  2. On the Stacks page, select the solution’s root stack.
  3. Choose the Outputs tab, and find the URL with the prefix GeneralOCR.

  4. Create a new tab in Postman. Paste the URL into the address bar, and select POST as the HTTP call method.

  5. Open the Authorization configuration, select Amazon Web Service Signature from the drop-down list, and enter the AccessKey, SecretKey and Amazon Web Service Region of the corresponding account (such as cn-north-1 or cn-northwest-1 ).

  6. Open the Body configuration item and select the raw and JSON data types.

  7. Enter the test data in the Body, and click the Send button to see the corresponding return results.

cURL

  • Windows
curl --location --request POST "https://[API_ID].execute-api.[AWS_REGION].amazonaws.com/[STAGE]/pornography-detection" ^
--header "Content-Type: application/json" ^
--data-raw "{\"url\": \"Image URL address\"}"
  • Linux/MacOS
curl --location --request POST 'https://[API_ID].execute-api.[AWS_REGION].amazonaws.com/[STAGE]/pornography-detection' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data-raw '{
  "url":"Image URL address"
}'

Python (AWS_IAM Authentication)

import requests
import json
from aws_requests_auth.boto_utils import BotoAWSRequestsAuth

auth = BotoAWSRequestsAuth(aws_host='[API_ID].execute-api.[AWS_REGION].amazonaws.com',
                           aws_region='[AWS_REGION]',
                           aws_service='execute-api')

url = 'https://[API_ID].execute-api.[AWS_REGION].amazonaws.com/[STAGE]/pornography-detection'
payload = {
    'url': 'Image URL address'
}
response = requests.request("POST", url, data=json.dumps(payload), auth=auth)
print(json.loads(response.text))

Python (NONE Authentication)

import requests
import json

url = "https://[API_ID].execute-api.[AWS_REGION].amazonaws.com/[STAGE]/pornography-detection"

payload = json.dumps({
  "url": "Image URL address"
})
headers = {
  'Content-Type': 'application/json'
}

response = requests.request("POST", url, headers=headers, data=payload)

print(response.text)

Java

OkHttpClient client = new OkHttpClient().newBuilder()
  .build();
MediaType mediaType = MediaType.parse("application/json");
RequestBody body = RequestBody.create(mediaType, "{\n  \"url\":\"Image URL address\"\n}");
Request request = new Request.Builder()
  .url("https://xxxxxxxxxxx.execute-api.xxxxxxxxx.amazonaws.com/[STAGE]/pornography-detection")
  .method("POST", body)
  .addHeader("Content-Type", "application/json")
  .build();
Response response = client.newCall(request).execute();
