Image Analysis

The Archives Unleashed Toolkit supports image analysis, a growing area of interest within web archives.

Extract Image Information

Scala RDD

Will not be implemented.

Scala DF

The following script:

import io.archivesunleashed._
import io.archivesunleashed.udfs._

val df = RecordLoader.loadArchives("/path/to/warcs", sc).images();

df.select($"url", $"filename", $"extension", $"mime_type_web_server", $"mime_type_tika", $"width", $"height", $"md5", $"sha1", $"bytes")
  .orderBy(desc("md5"))
  .show()

Will extract all following information from images in a web collection:

  • image url
  • filename
  • extension
  • MimeType as identified by the hosting web server
  • MimeType as identified by Apache Tika
  • Width
  • Height
  • md5 hash
  • sha1 hash
  • bytes

Extract Most Frequent Image URLs

Scala RDD

The following script:

import io.archivesunleashed._
import io.archivesunleashed.matchbox._

RecordLoader.loadArchives("/path/to/warcs", sc)
  .keepValidPages()
  .flatMap(r => ExtractImageLinks(r.getUrl, r.getContentString))
  .countItems()
  .take(10)

Will extract the top ten URLs of images found within a collection, in an array like so:

links: Array[(String, Int)] = Array((http://www.archive.org/images/star.png,408), (http://www.archive.org/images/no_star.png,122), (http://www.archive.org/images/logo.jpg,118), (http://www.archive.org/images/main-header.jpg,84), (http://www.archive.org/images/rss.png,20), (http://www.archive.org/images/mail.gif,13), (http://www.archive.org/images/half_star.png,10), (http://www.archive.org/images/arrow.gif,7), (http://ia300142.us.archive.org/3/items/americana/am_libraries.gif?cnt=0,3), (http://ia310121.us.archive.org/2/items/GratefulDead/gratefuldead.gif?cnt=0,3), (http://www.archive.org/images/wayback.gif,2), (http://www.archive.org/images/wayback-election2000.gif,2), (http://www.archive.org/images/wayback-wt...

If you wanted to work with the images, you could download them from the Internet Archive.

Let's use the top-ranked example. This link, for example, will show you the temporal distribution of the image. For a snapshot from September 2007, this URL would work:

http://web.archive.org/web/20070913051458/http://www.archive.org/images/star.png

To do analysis on all images, you could thus prepend http://web.archive.org/web/20070913051458/ to each URL and wget them en masse.

For more information on wget, please consult this lesson available on the Programming Historian website.

Scala DF

The following script:

import io.archivesunleashed._
import io.archivesunleashed.udfs._

val df = RecordLoader.loadArchives("/path/to/warcs", sc).imagegraph();

df.groupBy($"image_url")
  .count()
  .orderBy($"count".desc)
  .show(10)

Will extract the top ten URLs of images found within a collection, in a DataFrame like so:

+--------------------+-----+
|           image_url|count|
+--------------------+-----+
|http://www.archiv...|  408|

df = archive.imagegraph()

df.groupBy("image_url")
  .count()
  .orderBy("count", ascending=False)
  .show(10)

Will extract the top ten URLs of images found within a collection, in a DataFrame like so:

Extract Most Frequent Images MD5 Hash

Some images may be the same, but have different URLs. This UDF finds the popular images by calculating the MD5 hash of each and presents the most frequent images based on that metric. This script:

import io.archivesunleashed._
import io.archivesunleashed.app._
import io.archivesunleashed.matchbox._

val r = RecordLoader.loadArchives("/path/to/warcs",sc).persist()
ExtractPopularImages(r, 500, sc).saveAsTextFile("500-Popular-Images")

Will save the 500 most popular URLs to an output directory.

Scala DF

import io.archivesunleashed._
import io.archivesunleashed.app._

val df = RecordLoader.loadArchives("/path/to/warcs",sc).images()

ExtractPopularImagesDF(df,10,30,30).show()

Python DF

from aut import *

images = WebArchive(sc, sqlContext, "/path/to/warcs").images()

popular_images = ExtractPopularImages(images, 20, 10, 10)

popular_images.show()

Find Images Shared Between Domains

How to find images shared between domains that appear more than once in more than one domain.

Scala DF

import io.archivesunleashed._

val images = RecordLoader.loadArchives("/path/to/warcs", sc)
                        .images()
                        .select(removePrefixWWW(extractDomain($"url")).as("domain"), $"url", $"md5")

val links = images.groupBy("md5").count().where(countDistinct("domain")>=2)

val result = images.join(links, "md5")
                   .groupBy("domain", "md5")
                   .agg(first("url").as("image_url"))
                   .orderBy(asc("md5"))
                   .write.csv("/path/to/output")

PythonDF

from aut import *
