Every day, a huge and rapidly increasing amount of images are uploaded on the internet. Assuring that these images are aligned with site policy is a great challenge for many sites. Slow manual pre-upload validation of images result in long waiting times for disappointed end-users. Manual post-upload validation results in inappropriate content on the sites. Sites must choose between long upload times due to manual validation or the existence of inappropriate content.
