Abstract
A problem often raised by the availability of increasingly powerful signal processing tools is the lost of credibility of digital images and video sequences, due to the ease of modifying their content without leaving any visible traces of the modification. Such a problem assumes an outstanding importance in Advanced Video-based Surveillance (AVS) applications, where video sequences virtually have no value as proofs in front of a court of law, since doubts would always exist about the possibility that they had been tampered to intentionally incriminate or exculpate the defendant.
