1. A computer-implemented method for image filtering, the method comprising:
- analyzing, by a computer, an image using a plurality of classifiers corresponding to one of a plurality of characteristics;
generating, by the computer, a content vector for the image, wherein the content vector comprises a plurality of values, wherein each value corresponds to a classifier of the plurality of classifiers;
applying, by the computer, an interest operator to the content vector, wherein the interest operator is based on a plurality of pictures with desirable characteristics, thereby obtaining an interest index for the image represented by the content vector;
comparing, by the computer, the interest index for the image to an interest threshold to obtain a result; and
taking one or more actions by the computer based on the result.

Abstract
A computer-implemented (including method implemented using laptop, desktop, mobile, and wearable devices) method for image filtering. The method includes analyzing each image to generate a content vector for the image; applying an interest operator to the content vector, the interest operator being based on a plurality of pictures with desirable characteristics, thereby obtaining an interest index for the image; comparing the interest index for the image to an interest threshold; and taking one or more actions or abstaining from one or more actions based on a result of the step of comparing. Also, related systems and articles of manufacture.

8. A system comprising:
-
one or more processors; and a memory coupled to the one or more processors and comprising computer code which, when executed by the one or more processors, causes the one or more processors to; analyze an image using a plurality of classifiers corresponding to one of a plurality of characteristics; generate a content vector for the image, wherein the content vector comprises a plurality of values, wherein each value corresponds to a classifier of the plurality of classifiers; apply an interest operator to the content vector, wherein the interest operator is based on a plurality of pictures with desirable characteristics, thereby obtaining an interest index for the image represented by the content vector; compare the interest index for the image to an interest threshold, to obtain a result; and take one or more actions based on the result. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A non-transitory machine-readable medium embedded with computer code for image filtering executable by one or more processors to:
-
analyze, by a computer, an image using a plurality of classifiers corresponding to one of a plurality of characteristics; generate, by the computer, a content vector for the image, wherein the content vector comprises a plurality of values, wherein each value corresponds to a classifier of the plurality of classifiers; apply an interest operator to the content vector, the interest operator being based on a plurality of pictures with desirable characteristics, thereby obtaining an interest index for the image; comparing the interest index for the image to an interest threshold to obtain a result; and taking one or more actions based on the result. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
