Source Camera Identification Based on CFA Interpolation

S. Bayram; H. Sencar; N. Memon; I. Avcibas
In this work, we focus our interest on blind source camera identification problem by extending our results in the direction of M. Kharrazi et al. (2004). The interpolation in the color surface of an image due to the use of a color filter array (CFA) forms the basis of the paper. We propose to identify the source camera of an image based on traces of the proprietary interpolation algorithm deployed by a digital camera. For this purpose, a set of image characteristics are defined and then used in conjunction with a support vector machine based multi-class classifier to determine the originating digital camera. We also provide initial results on identifying source among two and three digital cameras.
