  • Patent number: 11971956
    Abstract: Techniques for training a visual neural network are described. In particular, the training of the visual neural network may be performed using one or more contrastive learning loss functions including one or more of a visual-to-visual contrastive learning function using the visual neural network on positive and negative video clips according to a first loss function, a secondary-to-secondary contrastive learning a secondary neural network on secondary positive and negative information generated from the positive and negative video clips, and a secondary-to-visual contrastive learning according to a third loss function using the visual neural network on positive and negative video clips and using the secondary neural network secondary positive and negative information generated from the positive and negative video clips.

  • Patent number: 11423265
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for content moderation using object detection and image classification are disclosed. A content moderation system performs object detection on an input image using one or more object detectors. The object detection finds one or more elements in the input image. The content moderation system performs classification based at least in part on the input image using one or more image classifiers. The classification determines one or more values indicative of one or more content types in the input image. The content moderation system determines one or more scores for one or more content labels corresponding to the one or more content types. At least one of the scores represents a finding of one or more of the content types in the input image. The content moderation system generates output indicating the finding of the one or more of the content types.
