Content classification tool with re-classification techniques

Abstract:

Methods, systems, and computer programs are presented for reclassifying content in an online service. One method includes an operation for classifying a content item, to be presented on an online service, as low-quality or approved. The method further includes an operation for storing, in a content database of the online service, the content item with a content certification record (CCR). The CCR includes a result of the classifying of the content item, a content classification platform signature (CCPS), and a content signature. Further, the method includes operations for detecting a trigger for determining if the content item has to be reclassified, and for checking if the item needs to be reclassified. The checking includes comparing the CCPS in the CCR to a latest CCPS and comparing the content signature in the CCR to a current content signature of the content item. The content item is reclassified based on the checking.
