Abstract
We consider identification of imaging devices by analysing images they produce. The problem is studied in the literature, yet the existing solutions are rather computationally demanding. We propose a high-speed algorithm for identification of imaging devices. The aim is to provide additional security by identification of legitimate imaging devices or an identification for forensics. The experimental evaluation confirms efficient identification of devices models and brands by the proposed algorithm, compared with the state-of-the-art method. Moreover, our algorithm is approximately two orders of magnitude faster, which is very important in resource-constrained IoT ecosystems or very large databases.
The project financed under the program of the Polish Minister of Science and Higher Education under the name “Regional Initiative of Excellence” in the years 2019–2022 project number 020/RID/2018/19, the amount of financing 12,000,000.00 PLN.
