Patent Images
1. A system for detecting objects in an image, comprising:
- an object detector module configured to detect regions of the image based on at least the content of the image, wherein at least some of the regions include objects of a particular type; and
a false positive detector module configured to determine whether each region detected by the object detector module does not include an object of the particular type, based on at least a height of a camera with which the image was taken and an estimated average height of objects of the particular type,wherein the object detector module and false positive detector module are implemented on at least one processor and memory.

Abstract
Embodiments of this invention relate to detecting and blurring images. In an embodiment, a system detects objects in a photographic image. The system includes an object detector module configured to detect regions of the photographic image that include objects of a particular type at least based on the content of the photographic image. The system further includes a false positive detector module configured to determine whether each region detected by the object detector module includes an object of the particular type at least based on information about the context in which the photographic image was taken.

12. A method for detecting objects in an image, comprising:
-
(a) detecting, by one or more computing devices, regions of the image based on at least the content of the image, wherein at least some of the regions include objects of a particular type; and (b) determining, by one or more computing devices, whether each region detected by the object detector module does not include an object of the particular type, based on at least a height of a camera with which the image was taken and an estimated average height of objects of the particular type. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)
