DIGITAL CAMERA IDENTIFICATION BASED ON THE CLUSTERED PATTERN NOISE OF IMAGE SENSORS
Yoichi Tomioka, Hitoshi KitazawaAbstract
Along with the popularization of digital cameras, the reliable identification of digital image source is becoming increasingly important as an evidence in a court and some help of investigations. In this paper, we propose an enhanced digital camera identification method using the pixel non-uniformity (PNU) noise of image sensors. By clustering the PNU noises, the proposed method extracts the robust features of image sensors to the random noise, scene content, and image processing engine such as the noise reduction. In the experiments, the proposed method shows the high identification accuracy even for latest digital cameras.
