Abstract

In this paper, we propose a passive scheme for photorealistic computer generated image (PRCG) identification and device brand classification. To this end, a periodic phenomenon of variance of pixel values resulting from demosaicing process is analyzed in RGB color space. Based on the phenomenon, the proposed scheme is composed of color space transformation, high-pass filtering, feature extraction, and classification. To make the phenomenon obvious, a high-pass filter is performed. The periodic phenomenons in different directions are measured as features in the Fourier domain and combined with a hierarchical classifier for PRCG detection and brand identification simultaneously. Experimental results show that our proposed scheme can not only detect photographic images (PIM) but also determine what brand of a camera is used.
