Abstract
Aspects of the disclosure pertain to identifying whether or not an image from a user's device is of a place or not. As part of the identification, a training procedure may be performed on a set of training images. The training procedure includes performing measurements of image data for each image in the set to derive a result. The result includes a series of variables for each training image in the set. The series of variable is evaluated for each training image to obtain one or more measurement weights and one or more measurement thresholds. These weights and thresholds are adjusted to set a false positive threshold and a false negative threshold for identifying whether an actual image is of a place type or is some other type of image.
