ABSTRACT:
A method for detecting a copy of a digital image initiates with dividing a suspected copy of a digital image into sub-images. Then, the average intensities associated with each of the sub-images is determined. Next, the average intensities are transformed into a series of coefficients. Then, a rank matrix from the series of coefficients is defined. Next, the rank matrix from the series of coefficients is compared to a rank matrix of a query image to determine if the suspected copy is an actual copy of the digital image. A computer readable media, a computer system and computer code configured to be executed on a computer system are also provided.
