Background information

With the rapid development of the Internet, smart devices, and a wide range of emerging business, data on the Internet has grown at an explosive rate. Interactive content such as images, videos, text, and chat messages has become an essential part of people's lives for them to express their feelings, record events, and arrange daily work. Every day, more than one billion videos and images are uploaded to the Internet, and more than 500 million messages and articles are posted on various social networks and media platforms. This trend continues to grow rapidly.

The huge amount of content is also mixed with uncontrollable risky elements, such as pornographic videos and images, terrorist content, and junk content. On the one hand, supervision from the public sector on content becomes increasingly stricter. This requires websites and platforms to strengthen their administration and moderation on their content. On the other hand, most users that consume the unstructured content are unable to identify the risky elements. The market longs for technologies that can help users identify which content is secure and compliant.
