Abstract:
People share thousands of their images and videos on social media platforms
like Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, WhatsApp etc. It is becoming a part of
our daily life to share our precious moments with our friends and others. We
encounter many funny videos and tutorials on YouTube as well. People often
give interviews from home for jobs, news channels etc. These images and
videos sometimes reveal users personal environment, which user is unaware
of. For example, what if someone share there dinner photo with friends and
user’s credit card was on the table. What if user is giving a job interview
at home and user’s roommate accidentally shows up in-front of the camera.
So, to protect user privacy there must be some sort of privacy protection
utility that can protect user privacy and keep the content visually appealing
as well. Traditional methods like blurring, cartooning and other filters makes
the other person suspicious and less attractive content. Most of the methods
require user effort to achieve privacy. So, a method is proposed in which
minimum user effort is required. In this method we’ve used our technique to
keep the content less suspicious and visually appealing as well.
