Best Practices for Mitigating Hallucinations in Large Language Models (LLMs)
Real-world AI Solutions: Lessons from the Field Overview This document provides practical guidance for minimizing hallucinations—instances where models produce inaccurate or fabricated content—when building applications with Azure AI services. It targets developers, architects, and MLOps teams working with LLMs in enterprise settings. Key Outcomes ✅ Reduce hallucinations through retrieval-augmented strategies and prompt engineering ✅ Improve model output reliability, grounding, and explainability ✅ Enable robust enterprise deployment through layered safety, monitoring, and security Understanding Hallucinations Hallucinations come in different forms. Here are some realistic examples for each category to help clarify them: Type Description Example Factual Outputs are incorrect or made up "Albert Einstein won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1950." (It was 1921) Temporal Stale or outdated knowledge shown as current "The latest iPhone model is the iPhone 12." (When iPhone 15 is current) Contextual Adds concepts that weren’t mentioned or implied Summarizing a doc and adding "AI is dangerous" when the doc never said it Linguistic Grammatically correct but incoherent sentences "The quantum sandwich negates bicycle logic through elegant syntax." Extrinsic Unsupported by source documents Citing nonexistent facts in a RAG-backed chatbot Intrinsic Contradictory or self-conflicting answers Saying both "Azure OpenAI supports fine-tuning" and "Azure OpenAI does not." Mitigation Strategies 1- Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) Grounding model outputs with enterprise knowledge sources like PDFs, SharePoint docs, or images. Key Practices: Data Preparation and Organization Clean and curate your data. Organize data into topics to improve search accuracy and prevent noise. Regularly audit and update grounding data to avoid outdated or biased content. Search and Retrieval Techniques Explore different methods (keyword, vector, hybrid, semantic search) to find the best fit for your use case. Use metadata filtering (e.g., tagging by recency or source reliability) to prioritize high-quality information. Apply data chunking to improve retrieval efficiency and clarity. Query Engineering and Post-Processing Use prompt engineering to specify which data source or section to pull from. Apply query transformation methods (e.g., sub-queries) for complex queries. Employ reranking methods to boost output quality. 2- Prompt Engineering High-quality prompts guide LLMs to produce factual and relevant responses. Use the ICE method: Instructions: Start with direct, specific asks. Constraints: Add boundaries like "only from retrieved docs". Escalation: Include fallback behaviors (e.g., “Say ‘I don’t know’ if unsure”). Example Prompt Improvement: ❌: Summarize this document. ✅: Using only the retrieved documentation, summarize this paper in 3–5 bullet points. If any information is missing, reply with 'Insufficient data.' Prompt Patterns That Work: Clarity and Specificity Write clear, unambiguous instructions to minimize misinterpretation. Use detailed prompts, e.g., "Provide only factual, verified information. If unsure, respond with 'I don't know.'" Structure Break down complex tasks into smaller logical subtasks for accuracy. Example: Research Paper Analysis ❌ Bad Prompt (Too Broad, Prone to Hallucination): "Summarize this research paper and explain its implications." ✅ Better Prompt (Broken into Subtasks): Extract Core Information: "Summarize the key findings of the research paper in 3-5 bullet points." Assess Reliability: "Identify the sources of data used and assess their credibility." Determine Implications: "Based on the findings, explain potential real-world applications." Limit Speculation: "If any conclusions are uncertain, indicate that explicitly rather than making assumptions." Repetition Repeating key instructions in a prompt can help reduce hallucinations. The way you structure the repetition matters. Here are some best practices: Beginning (Highly Recommended) The start of the prompt has the most impact on how the LLM interprets the task. Place essential guidelines here, such as: "Provide only factual, verified information." End (For Final Confirmation or Safety Checks) Use the end to reinforce key rules. Instead of repeating the initial instruction verbatim, word it differently to reinforce it, and keep it concise. For example: "If unsure, clearly state 'I don't know.'" Temperature Control Adjust temperature settings (0.1–0.4) for deterministic, focused responses. Chain-of-Thought Incorporate "Chain-of-Thought" instructions to encourage logical, stepwise responses. For example, to solve a math problem: "Solve this problem step-by-step. First, break it into smaller parts. Explain each step before moving to the next." Tip: Use Azure AI Prompt Flow’s playground to test prompt variations with parameter sweeps. 3- System-Level Defenses Mitigation isn't just prompt-side—it requires end-to-end design. Key Recommendations: Content Filtering: Use Azure AI Content Safety to detect sexual, hate, violence, or self-harm content. Metaprompts: Define system boundaries ("You can only answer from documents retrieved"). RBAC & Networking: Use Azure Private Link, VNETs, and Microsoft Entra ID for secure access. 4- Evaluation & Feedback Loops Continuously evaluate outputs using both automated and human-in-the-loop feedback. Real-World Setup: Labeling Teams: Review hallucination-prone cases with Human in Loop integrations. Automated Test Generation Use LLMs to generate diverse test cases covering multiple inputs and difficulty levels. Simulate real-world queries to evaluate model accuracy. Evaluations Using Multiple LLMs Cross-evaluate outputs from multiple LLMs. Use ranking and comparison to refine model performance. Be cautious—automated evaluations may miss subtle errors requiring human oversight. Tip: Common Evaluation Metrics Metric What It Measures How to Use It Relevance Score How closely the model's response aligns with the user query and intent (0–1 scale). Use automated LLM-based grading or semantic similarity to flag off-topic or loosely related answers. Groundedness Score Whether the output is supported by retrieved documents or source context. Use manual review or Azure AI Evaluation tools (like RAG evaluation) to identify unsupported claims. User Trust Score Real-time feedback from users, typically collected via thumbs up/down or star ratings. Track trends to identify low-confidence flows and prioritize them for prompt tuning or data curation. Tip: Use evaluation scores in combination. For example, high relevance but low groundedness often signals hallucination risks—especially in chat apps with fallback answers. Tip: Flag any outputs where "source_confidence" < threshold and route them to a human review queue. Tip: Include “accuracy audits” as part of your CI/CD pipeline using Prompt Flow or other evaluations tools to test components.

General availability of Prompt Shields in Azure AI Content Safety and Azure OpenAI Service
Today we are announcing the general availability of Prompt Shields in Azure AI Content Safety and Azure OpenAI Service, a robust AI security feature we announced in preview in March 2024. Prompt Shields seamlessly integrate with Azure OpenAI Service content filters and are available in Azure AI Content Safety, providing a robust defense against different types of prompt injection attacks. By leveraging advanced machine learning algorithms and natural language processing, Prompt Shields effectively identify and mitigate potential threats in user prompts and third-party data. This cutting-edge capability will support the security and integrity of your AI applications, safeguarding your systems against malicious attempts at manipulation or exploitation. Key Features Prompt Shields for Direct Attacks: Previously called Jailbreak risk detection, this shield targets direct prompt injection attacks, where users deliberately exploit system vulnerabilities to elicit unauthorized behavior from the LLM. This could lead to inappropriate content generation or violations of system-imposed restrictions. Prompt Shields for Indirect Attacks: This shield aims to safeguard against attacks that use information not directly supplied by the user or developer, such as external documents. Attackers might embed hidden instructions in these materials in order to gain unauthorized control over the LLM session. Prompt Shields API: Input and Output Prompt Shields in Azure OpenAI Service User Scenarios "Prompt Shields" in Azure AI Content Safety are specifically designed to safeguard generative AI systems from generating harmful or inappropriate content. These shields detect and mitigate risks associated with both User Prompt Attacks (malicious or harmful user-generated inputs) and Document Attacks (inputs containing harmful content embedded within documents). The use of "Prompt Shields" is crucial in environments where GenAI is employed, ensuring that AI outputs remain safe, compliant, and trustworthy. The primary objectives of the "Prompt Shields" feature for GenAI applications are: To detect and block harmful or policy-violating user prompts (direct attacks) that could lead to unsafe AI outputs. To identify and mitigate indirect attacks where harmful content is embedded within user-provided documents. To maintain the integrity, safety, and compliance of AI-generated content, thereby preventing misuse of GenAI systems. Use Case Examples AI Content Creation Platforms: Detecting Harmful Prompts Scenario: An AI content creation platform uses generative AI models to produce marketing copy, social media posts, and articles based on user-provided prompts. To prevent the generation of harmful or inappropriate content, the platform integrates "Prompt Shields." User: Content creators, platform administrators, and compliance officers. Action: The platform uses Azure AI Content Safety's "Prompt Shields" to analyze user prompts before generating content. If a prompt is detected as encouraging the creation of potentially harmful or is likely to lead to policy-violating outputs (e.g., prompts asking for defamatory content or hate speech), the shield blocks the prompt and alerts the user to modify their input. Outcome: The platform ensures all AI-generated content is safe, ethical, and compliant with community guidelines, enhancing user trust and protecting the platform's reputation. AI-Powered Chatbots: Mitigating Risk from User Prompt Attacks Scenario: A customer service provider uses AI-powered chatbots for automated support. To safeguard against user prompts that could manipulate the model to generate inappropriate or unsafe responses, the provider uses "Prompt Shields." User: Customer service agents, chatbot developers, and compliance teams. Action: The chatbot system integrates "Prompt Shields" to monitor and evaluate user inputs in real-time. If a user prompt is identified as trying to exploit the AI (e.g., attempting to provoke inappropriate responses or extract sensitive information), the shield intervenes by blocking the response or redirecting the query to a human agent. Outcome: The customer service provider maintains high standards of interaction safety and compliance, preventing the chatbot from generating responses that could harm users or breach policies. E-Learning Platforms: Preventing Inappropriate AI-Generated Educational Content Scenario: An e-learning platform employs GenAI to generate personalized educational content based on student inputs and reference documents. To avoid security threats that could cause the generation of inappropriate or misleading educational, the platform utilizes "Prompt Shields." User: Educators, content developers, and compliance officers. Action: The platform uses "Prompt Shields" to analyze both user prompts and connected data sources, such as documents, for content that could manipulate the application to generate unsafe or policy-violating AI outputs. If a user prompt or connected document is detected as likely to generate inappropriate educational content, the shield blocks it and suggests alternative, safe inputs. Outcome: The platform ensures that all AI-generated educational materials are appropriate and compliant with academic standards, fostering a safe and effective learning environment. With the general availability of Prompt Shields, AI systems can now be more effectively protected against prompt injection attacks, supporting robust security.

Data Storage in Azure OpenAI Service
Data Stored at Rest by Default Azure OpenAI does store certain data at rest by default when you use specific features (continue reading) In general, the base models are stateless and do not retain your prompts or completions from standard API calls (they aren't used to train or improve the base models). However, some optional service features will persist data in your Azure OpenAI resource. For example, if you upload files for fine-tuning, use the vector store, or enable stateful features like Assistants API Threads or Stored Completions, that data will be stored at rest by the service. This means content such as training datasets, embeddings, conversation history, or output logs from those features are saved within your Azure environment. Importantly, this storage is within your own Azure tenant (in the Azure OpenAI resource you created) and remains in the same geographic region as your resource. In summary, yes – data can be stored at rest by default when using these features, and it stays isolated to your Azure resource in your tenant. If you only use basic completions without these features, then your prompts and outputs are not persisted in the resource by default (aside from transient processing). Location and Deletion of Stored Data Location: All data stored by Azure OpenAI features resides in your Azure OpenAI resource’s storage, within your Azure subscription/tenant and in the same region (geography) that your resource is deployed. Microsoft ensures this data is secured — it is automatically encrypted at rest using AES-256 encryption, and you have the option to add a customer-managed key for double encryption (except in certain preview features that may not support CMK). No other Azure OpenAI customers or OpenAI (the company) can access this data; it remains isolated to your environment. Deletion: You retain full control over any data stored by these features. The official documentation states that stored data can be deleted by the customer at any time. For instance, if you fine-tune a model, the resulting custom model and any training files you uploaded are exclusively available to you and you can delete them whenever you wish. Similarly, any stored conversation threads or batch processing data can be removed by you through the Azure portal or API. In short, data persisted for Azure OpenAI features is user-managed: it lives in your tenant and you can delete it on demand once it’s no longer needed. Comparison to Abuse Monitoring and Content Filtering It’s important to distinguish the above data storage from Azure OpenAI’s content safety system (content filtering and abuse monitoring), which operates differently: Content Filtering: Azure OpenAI automatically checks prompts and generations for policy violations. These filters run in real-time and do not store your prompts or outputs in the filter models, nor are your prompts/outputs used to improve the filters without consent. In other words, the content filtering process itself is ephemeral – it analyzes the content on the fly and doesn’t permanently retain that data. Abuse Monitoring: By default (if enabled), Azure OpenAI has an abuse detection system that might log certain data when misuse is detected. If the system’s algorithms flag potential violations, a sample of your prompts and completions may be captured for review. Any such data selected for human review is stored in a secure, isolated data store tied to your resource and region (within the Azure OpenAI service boundaries in your geography). This is used strictly for moderation purposes – e.g. a Microsoft reviewer could examine a flagged request to ensure compliance with the Azure OpenAI Code of Conduct. When Abuse Monitoring is Disabled: if you disabled content logging/abuse monitoring (via an approved Microsoft process to turn it off). According to Microsoft’s documentation, when a customer has this modified abuse monitoring in place, Microsoft does not store any prompts or completions for that subscription’s Azure OpenAI usage. The human review process is completely bypassed (because there’s no stored data to review). Only the AI-based checks might still occur, but they happen in-memory at request time and do not persist your data at rest. Essentially, with abuse monitoring turned off, no usage data is being saved for moderation purposes; the system will check content policy compliance on the fly and then immediately discard those prompts/outputs without logging them. Data Storage and Deletion in Azure OpenAI “Chat on Your Data” Azure OpenAI’s “Chat on your data” (also called Azure OpenAI on your data, part of the Assistants preview) lets you ground the model’s answers on your own documents. It stores some of your data to enable this functionality. Below, we explain where and how your data is stored, how to delete it, and important considerations (based on official Microsoft documentation). How Azure Open AI on your data stores your data Data Ingestion and Storage: When you add your own data (for example by uploading files or providing a URL) through Azure OpenAI’s “Add your data” feature, the service ingests that content into an Azure Cognitive Search index (Azure AI Search). The data is first stored in Azure Blob Storage (for processing) and then indexed for retrieval: Files Upload (Preview): Files you upload are stored in an Azure Blob Storage account and then ingested (indexed) into an Azure AI Search index. This means the text from your documents is chunked and saved in a search index so the model can retrieve it during chat. Web URLs (Preview): If you add a website URL as a data source, the page content is fetched and saved to a Blob Storage container (webpage-<index name>), then indexed into Azure Cognitive Search. Each URL you add creates a separate container in Blob storage with the page content, which is then added to the search index. Existing Azure Data Stores: You also have the option to connect an existing Azure Cognitive Search index or other vector databases (like Cosmos DB or Elasticsearch) instead of uploading new files. In those cases, the data remains in that source (for example, your existing search index or database), and Azure OpenAI will use it for retrieval rather than copying it elsewhere. Chat Sessions and Threads: Azure OpenAI’s Assistants feature (which underpins “Chat on your data”) is stateful. This means it retains conversation history and any file attachments you use during the chat. Specifically, it stores: (1) Threads, messages, and runs from your chat sessions, and (2) any files you uploaded as part of an Assistant’s setup or messages. All this data is stored in a secure, Microsoft-managed storage account, isolated for your Azure OpenAI resource. In other words, Azure manages the storage for conversation history and uploaded content, and keeps it logically separated per customer/resource. Location and Retention: The stored data (index content, files, chat threads) resides within the same Azure region/tenant as your Azure OpenAI resource. It will persist indefinitely – Azure OpenAI will not automatically purge or delete your data – until you take action to remove it. Even if you close your browser or end a session, the ingested data (search index, stored files, thread history) remains saved on the Azure side. For example, if you created a Cognitive Search index or attached a storage account for “Chat on your data,” that index and the files stay in place; the system does not delete them in the background. How to Delete Stored Data Removing data that was stored by the “Chat on your data” feature involves a manual deletion step. You have a few options depending on what data you want to delete: Delete Chat Threads (Assistants API): If you used the Assistants feature and have saved conversation threads that you want to remove (including their history and any associated uploaded files), you can call the Assistants API to delete those threads. Azure OpenAI provides a DELETE endpoint for threads. Using the thread’s ID, you can issue a delete request to wipe that thread’s messages and any data tied to it. In practice, this means using the Azure OpenAI REST API or SDK with the thread ID. For example: DELETE https://<your-resource-name>.openai.azure.com/openai/threads/{thread_id}?api-version=2024-08-01-preview . This “delete thread” operation will remove the conversation and its stored content from the Azure OpenAI Assistants storage (Simply clearing or resetting the chat in the Studio UI does not delete the underlying thread data – you must call the delete operation explicitly.) Delete Your Search Index or Data Source: If you connected an Azure Cognitive Search index or the system created one for you during data ingestion, you should delete the index (or wipe its documents) to remove your content. You can do this via the Azure portal or Azure Cognitive Search APIs: go to your Azure Cognitive Search resource, find the index that was created to store your data, and delete that index. Deleting the index ensures all chunks of your documents are removed from search. Similarly, if you had set up an external vector database (Cosmos DB, Elasticsearch, etc.) as the data source, you should delete any entries or indexes there to purge the data. Tip: The index name you created is shown in the Azure AI Studio and can be found in your search resource’s overview. Removing that index or the entire search resource will delete the ingested data. Delete Stored Files in Blob Storage: If your usage involved uploading files or crawling URLs (thereby storing files in a Blob Storage container), you’ll want to delete those blobs as well. Navigate to the Azure Blob Storage account/container that was used for “Chat on your data” and delete the uploaded files or containers containing your data. For example, if you used the “Upload files (preview)” option, the files were stored in a container in the Azure Storage account you provided– you can delete those directly from the storage account. Likewise, for any web pages saved under webpage-<index name> containers, delete those containers or blobs via the Storage account in Azure Portal or using Azure Storage Explorer. Full Resource Deletion (optional): As an alternative cleanup method, you can delete the Azure resources or resource group that contain the data. For instance, if you created a dedicated Azure Cognitive Search service or storage account just for this feature, deleting those resources (or the whole resource group they reside in) will remove all stored data and associated indices in one go. Note: Only use this approach if you’re sure those resources aren’t needed for anything else, as it is a broad action. Otherwise, stick to deleting the specific index or files as described above. Verification: Once you have deleted the above, the model will no longer have access to your data. The next time you use “Chat on your data,” it will not find any of the deleted content in the index, and thus cannot include it in answers. (Each query fetches data fresh from the connected index or vector store, so if the data is gone, nothing will be retrieved from it.) Considerations and Limitations No Automatic Deletion: Remember that Azure OpenAI will not auto-delete any data you’ve ingested. All data persists until you remove it. For example, if you remove a data source from the Studio UI or end your session, the configuration UI might forget it, but the actual index and files remain stored in your Azure resources. Always explicitly delete indexes, files, or threads to truly remove the data. Preview Feature Caveats: “Chat on your data” (Azure OpenAI on your data) is currently a preview feature. Some management capabilities are still evolving. A known limitation was that the Azure AI Studio UI did not persist the data source connection between sessions – you’d have to reattach your index each time, even though the index itself continued to exist. This is being worked on, but it underscores that the UI might not show you all lingering data. Deleting via API/portal is the reliable way to ensure data is removed. Also, preview features might not support certain options like customer-managed keys for encryption of the stored data(the data is still encrypted at rest by Microsoft, but you may not be able to bring your own key in preview). Data Location & Isolation: All data stored by this feature stays within your Azure OpenAI resource’s region/geo and is isolated to your tenant. It is not shared with other customers or OpenAI – it remains private to your resource. So, deleting it is solely your responsibility and under your control. Microsoft confirms that the Assistants data storage adheres to compliance like GDPR and CCPA, meaning you have the ability to delete personal data to meet compliance requirements Costs: There is no extra charge specifically for the Assistant “on your data” storage itself. The data being stored in a cognitive search index or blob storage will simply incur the normal Azure charges for those services (for example, Azure Cognitive Search indexing queries, or storage capacity usage). Deleting unused resources when you’re done is wise to avoid ongoing charges. If you only delete the data (index/documents) but keep the search service running, you may still incur minimal costs for the service being available – consider deleting the whole search resource if you no longer need it Residual References: After deletion, any chat sessions or assistants that were using that data source will no longer find it. If you had an Assistant configured with a now-deleted vector store or index, you might need to update or recreate the assistant if you plan to use it again, as the old data source won’t resolve. Clearing out the data ensures it’s gone from future responses. (Each new question to the model will only retrieve from whatever data sources currently exist/are connected.) In summary, the data you intentionally provide for Azure OpenAI’s features (fine-tuning files, vector data, chat histories, etc.) is stored at rest by design in your Azure OpenAI resource (within your tenant and region), and you can delete it at any time. This is separate from the content safety mechanisms. Content filtering doesn’t retain data, and abuse monitoring would ordinarily store some flagged data for review – but since you have that disabled, no prompt or completion data is being stored for abuse monitoring now. All of these details are based on Microsoft’s official documentation, ensuring your understanding is aligned with Azure OpenAI’s data privacy guarantees and settings. Azure OpenAI “Chat on your data” stores your content in Azure Search indexes and blob storage (within your own Azure environment or a managed store tied to your resource). This data remains until you take action to delete it. To remove your data, delete the chat threads (via API) and remove any associated indexes or files in Azure. There are no hidden copies once you do this – the system will not retain context from deleted data on the next chat run. Always double-check the relevant Azure resources (search and storage) to ensure all parts of your data are cleaned up. Following these steps, you can confidently use the feature while maintaining control over your data lifecycle.Six reasons why startups and at-scale cloud native companies build their GenAI Apps with Azure

Sample data of this PoC is in my repo: https://github.com/xinyuwei-david/david-share/tree/master/LLMs/AI-Content-Safety #git clone https://github.com/Azure-Samples/AzureAIContentSafety.git #cd AzureAIContentSafety/python/1.0.0 Create AI content endpoint on Azure portal, then: #export CONTENT_SAFETY_KEY="***821" # export CONTENT_SAFETY_ENDPOINT="https://**cognitiveservices.azure.com/" Video filter #cat sample_analyze_video.py import os import imageio.v3 as iio import numpy as np from PIL import Image from io import BytesIO import datetime from tqdm import tqdm from azure.ai.contentsafety import ContentSafetyClient from azure.core.credentials import AzureKeyCredential from azure.core.exceptions import HttpResponseError from azure.ai.contentsafety.models import AnalyzeImageOptions, ImageData, ImageCategory def analyze_video(): key = os.environ["CONTENT_SAFETY_KEY"] endpoint = os.environ["CONTENT_SAFETY_ENDPOINT"] video_path = os.path.abspath( os.path.join(os.path.abspath(__file__), "..", "./sample_data/2.mp4")) client = ContentSafetyClient(endpoint, AzureKeyCredential(key)) video = iio.imread(video_path, plugin='pyav') sampling_fps = 1 fps = 30 # 假设视频的帧率为30，如果不同，请调整 key_frames = [frame for i, frame in enumerate(video) if i % int(fps / sampling_fps) == 0] results = [] # 用于存储每个帧的分析结果 output_dir = "./video-results" os.makedirs(output_dir, exist_ok=True) for key_frame_idx in tqdm(range(len(key_frames)), desc="Processing video", total=len(key_frames)): frame = Image.fromarray(key_frames[key_frame_idx]) frame_bytes = BytesIO() frame.save(frame_bytes, format="PNG") # 保存帧到本地 frame_filename = f"frame_{key_frame_idx}.png" frame_path = os.path.join(output_dir, frame_filename) frame.save(frame_path) request = AnalyzeImageOptions(image=ImageData(content=frame_bytes.getvalue())) frame_time_ms = key_frame_idx * 1000 / sampling_fps frame_timestamp = datetime.timedelta(milliseconds=frame_time_ms) print(f"Analyzing video at {frame_timestamp}") try: response = client.analyze_image(request) except HttpResponseError as e: print(f"Analyze video failed at {frame_timestamp}") if e.error: print(f"Error code: {e.error.code}") print(f"Error message: {e.error.message}") raise hate_result = next( (item for item in response.categories_analysis if item.category == ImageCategory.HATE), None) self_harm_result = next( (item for item in response.categories_analysis if item.category == ImageCategory.SELF_HARM), None) sexual_result = next( (item for item in response.categories_analysis if item.category == ImageCategory.SEXUAL), None) violence_result = next( (item for item in response.categories_analysis if item.category == ImageCategory.VIOLENCE), None) frame_result = { "frame": frame_filename, "timestamp": str(frame_timestamp), "hate_severity": hate_result.severity if hate_result else None, "self_harm_severity": self_harm_result.severity if self_harm_result else None, "sexual_severity": sexual_result.severity if sexual_result else None, "violence_severity": violence_result.severity if violence_result else None } results.append(frame_result) # 打印所有帧的分析结果 for result in results: print(result) if __name__ == "__main__": analyze_video() Refer to sample_data/2.mp4, following is one frame of the video: Run the python file: python3 sample_analyze_video.py The process is as following： Results are： We could observe which pictures have issue.
