Logo identification algorithm for TV Internet

Content inappropriate for children on Internet television is a serious problem in today's multimedia world. There are numerous methods which are used to control the content of the transmitted television programmes. However, these well-known methods do not solve the above mentioned problem completely. The paper presents a more effective method for automatic identification of the provider's logo based on an original image sequence analysis. The automatic identification of the provider's logo can be used to block access to video programmes of the selected providers. The method has been tested on some chosen video transmissions on-line, achieving over 98% of correct identification.
