• Abstract: PRNU-based image processing is a key asset in digital multimedia forensics. It allows for reliable device identification and effective detection and localization of image forgeries, in very general conditions. However, performance impairs significantly in challenging conditions involving low quality and quantity of data. These include working on compressed and cropped images, or estimating the camera PRNU pattern based on only a few images. To boost the performance of PRNU-based analyses in such conditions we propose to leverage the image noiseprint, a recently proposed camera-model fingerprint that has proved effective for several forensic tasks. Numerical experiments on datasets widely used for source identification prove that the proposed method ensures a significant performance improvement in a wide range of challenging situations.

  Many existing hand-based recognition methods perform well for hand images collected in controlled environments with user cooperation. An algorithm integrating a multi-spatial transformer network (MSTN) and multiple loss functions is proposed to fully utilize information in full hand images. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm performs significantly better than the existing methods in these uncontrolled and uncooperative environments.

  Source camera identification tools assist image forensic investigators to associate an image in question with a suspect camera. Photo Response Non Uniformity (PRNU) noise pattern caused by sensor imperfections has been proven to be an effective way to identify the source camera. PRNU is susceptible to camera settings, image content, image processing operations, and counter-forensic attacks. New device fingerprint is extracted from the low and mid-frequency bands, which resolves the fragility issue that the PRNU is unable to contend with.
