Abstract

A system for classifying media according to user negative propensities, includes a computing device configured to identify a negative behavioral propensity associated with a human subject, generate, using a classification algorithm, a media theme classifier, wherein the media theme classifier inputs media items and outputs principal themes of the media items, receive a media item to be transmitted to a device operated by the human subject, identify, using the media theme classifier, a principal theme of the media item, and determine if the principle theme matches the negative behavioral propensity. Identifying the principal theme further includes extracting, from the media item, a plurality of media item content elements, classifying each content element of the plurality of media item content elements to a media item object of a plurality of media item objects using an object classifier, and inputting the plurality of objects to the media theme classifier.

classifying each content element of the plurality of training item content elements to a training item object of a plurality of training item objects using the object classifier; and

replacing the media item with the plurality of training item objects in the thematic training data.

6. The system of claim 5 , wherein the object classifier further comprises a visual object classifier, and the computing device is further configured to:

extract the plurality of training item content elements by extracting a plurality of geometric forms from a visual component of the media item; and

classify the plurality of geometric forms using the visual object classifier.

7. The system of claim 5 , wherein the object classifier further comprises a linguistic object classifier, and the computing device is further configured to:

extract the plurality of training item content elements by extracting a plurality of textual elements from a verbal component of the media item; and

classify the plurality of textual elements using the linguistic object classifier.

8. The system of claim 1 , wherein the computing device is further configured to determine if the principal theme matches the user propensity for addictive behavior by:

matching the principal theme to the user propensity for addictive behavior; and

blocking transmission of the media item to the device.

9. The system of claim 1 , wherein the computing device is further configured to:

extract, from the media item, a plurality of content elements;

determine that the principal theme does not match the user propensity for addictive behavior;

classify each content element of the plurality of content elements to an object of a plurality of objects using an object classifier; and

determine that an object of the plurality of objects matches the user propensity for addictive behavior.

10. The system of claim 9 , wherein the computing device is further configured to:

receive, from a remote device, an indication that the human subject is engaging in a problematic behavior associated with the user propensity for addictive behavior; and

block transmission of the media to the device operated by the human subject.

11. A method of classifying media according to user propensities for addictive behavior, the method comprising:

obtaining, by the computing device, a physiological state data as a function of a physical sample;
