  • Patent number: 11861923
    Abstract: The present disclosure describes a method, an apparatus, and a non-transitory computer-readable medium for detecting sensitive text information such as privacy-related text information from a signal and modifying the signal by removing the detected sensitive text information therefrom. The apparatus receives the signal such as an image, a video clip, or an audio clip, and recognizes a text string therefrom. The apparatus then detects, from the text string, a substring based on a similarity between the substring and a regular expression, and modifies the signal by removing information related to the detected substring from the signal.
