Forgery Detection Improvements
Photo Forgery Detection, which helps to robustly determine, whether a photo
was changed after leaving a digital camera or smartphone. With v.6.3.1 we
enhanced this function even more:
- New cameras added. We supported 300 more cameras and now the
total amount of supported devices exceeds 3300!
- New algorithm introduced: Error Level Analysis. Error level
analysis (ELA) identifies areas within an image that are at different
compression levels. With JPEG images, the entire picture should be at
roughly the same level. If a section of the image is at a significantly
different error level, then it likely indicates a digital modification.
- New algorithm introduced: Double Quantization Tables. Double
Quantization Tables (DQT) algorithm determines whether the picture was
compressed in the JPEG format more than once. If the JPEG file was opened,
edited and saved, some compression artifacts will inevitably appear.
With all these improvements, Belkasoft Forgery Detection Plugin becomes more
powerful and robust than ever. More information:
