NSFW Data Scrapper

Description

This is a set of scripts that allows for an automatic collection of tens of thousands of images for the following (loosely defined) categories to be later used for training an image classifier:

porn - pornography images
hentai - hentai images, but also includes pornographic drawings
sexy - sexually explicit images, but not pornography. Think nude photos, playboy, bikini, beach volleyball, etc.
neutral - safe for work neutral images of everyday things and people
drawings - safe for work drawings (including anime)

Here is what each script (located under scripts directory) does:

1_get_urls.sh - iterates through text files under scripts/source_urls downloading URLs of images for each of the 5 categories above. The Ripme application performs all the heavy lifting. The source URLs are mostly links to various subreddits, but could be any website that Ripme supports. Note: I already ran this script for you, and its outputs are located in raw_data directory. No need to rerun unless you edit files under scripts/source_urls
2_download_from_urls.sh - downloads actual images for urls found in text files in raw_data directory
3_optional_download_drawings.sh - (optional) script that downloads SFW anime images from the Danbooru2018 database
4_optional_download_neutral.sh - (optional) script that downloads SFW neutral images from the Caltech256 dataset
5_create_train.sh - creates data/train directory and copy all *.jpg and *.jpeg file into it from raw_data. Also removes corrupted images
6_create_test.sh - creates data/test directory and moves N=2000 random files for each class from data/train to data/test (change this number inside the script if you need a different train/test split). Alternatively, you can run it multiple times, each time it will move N images for each class from data/train to data/test.

Prerequisites

Java runtime environment:
- debian and ubuntu:sudo apt-get install default-jre
Linux command line tools: wget, convert (imagemagick suite of tools), rsync, shuf

On Windows

option 1: download a linux distro from windows 10 store and run the scripts there
option 2
- download and install git from here. Git also installs Bash on your pc
- download and install wget from here and add it to PATH
- run the scripts

On Mac

The only difference I encountered is that OS X does not have shuf command, but has gshuf instead that can be installed with brew install coreutils. After installation either create an alias from gshuf to shuf or rename shuf to gshuf in 6_create_test.sh.

How to run

Change working directory to scripts and execute each script in the sequence indicated by the number in the file name, e.g.:

$ bash 1_get_urls.sh # has already been run
$ find ../raw_data -name "urls_*.txt" -exec sh -c "echo Number of URLs in {}: ; cat {} | wc -l" \;
Number of URLs in ../raw_data/drawings/urls_drawings.txt:
   25732
Number of URLs in ../raw_data/hentai/urls_hentai.txt:
   45228
Number of URLs in ../raw_data/neutral/urls_neutral.txt:
   20960
Number of URLs in ../raw_data/sexy/urls_sexy.txt:
   19554
Number of URLs in ../raw_data/porn/urls_porn.txt:
  116521
$ bash 2_download_from_urls.sh
$ bash 3_optional_download_drawings.sh # optional
$ bash 4_optional_download_neutral.sh # optional
$ bash 5_create_train.sh
$ bash 6_create_test.sh
$ cd ../data
$ ls train
drawings hentai neutral porn sexy
$ ls test
drawings hentai neutral porn sexy

I was able to train a CNN classifier to 91% accuracy with the following confusion matrix:

As expected, anime and hentai are confused with each other more frequently than with other classes.

Same with porn and sexy categories.

Note: anime category was later renamed to drawings
