With the rapid development of network technology, concerns pertaining to the enhancement of security and protection against violations of digital images have become critical over the past decade. In this paper, an image copy detection scheme based on the Inception convolutional neural network (CNN) model in deep learning is proposed. The image dataset is transferred by a number of image processing manipulations and the feature values in images are automatically extracted for learning and detecting the suspected unauthorized digital images. The experimental results show that the proposed scheme takes on an extraordinary role in the process of detecting duplicated images with rotation, scaling, and other content manipulations. Moreover, the mechanism of detecting duplicate images via a convolutional neural network model with different combinations of original images and manipulated images can improve the accuracy and efficiency of image copy detection compared with existing schemes.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
