The development of technology caused a significant increase in the use of images in forensic cases. It is common that manipulated images are presented as evidence in courts which requires an authenticity check. In this study, we analyze splicing forgeries where the manipulations are obtained by combining different images. The proposed method divides the original images and the manipulated images into small sub-blocks. After the distinctive statistical information of the images is extracted using ELA (Error Level Analysis), the necessary discrimitative information is learned using a convolutional neural network. The method was tested on the CASIA dataset and is shown to perform comparable or better than some existing methods.

Digital images are the dominant media of information in the digital world and used to convey the desired information. It has been noticed that manipulated images are put to wrong use to create a false perception about the image or story in support. Copy-paste forgery is one of the most exploited image manipulation approaches. In recent years the research community has proposed many methods for the detection of such forgery. In this work, the copy-paste forgery has been detected and localized by the proposed scheme using locality preserving projection (LPP). As the processing level increases, changes in pixel intensity and statistical changes in image pixels increase, which reduces the accuracy of localization. Similarity preserving property of LPP is used for developing a multifaceted method for copy-paste forgery detection for images attacked with various post-processing.

Erroneous determination of blood glucose concentration in patients with diabetes can lead to errors in treatment. To prescribe the correct and non-traumatic treatment to the patient, you need to increase the accuracy of determining the concentration of glucose in the patient's blood. The authors of the article suggest the use of adaptive statisticalmethods to improve accuracy, which work well with a small number of repeated measurements under conditions of uncertainty of external factors. Such methods have proven themselves well in various fields of science and technology, where precise control of a large group of measurements is required. Such statisticalmethods have been well studied in terms of mathematics and applied in high-precision manufacturing. They allow you to adjust the required dose of the injected substance on the basis of several previous measurements in order to exclude insufficient or excessive administration. Both of these cases - an insufficient and excessive amount of the drug - lead to an incorrect glucose content in the patient's blood (hypo- and hyperglycemia), and have a bad effect on further treatment. To exclude such cases and improve the quality of treatment and the future life of patients with diabetes mellitus, a solution method using statistics is proposed.

Multifractal analysis provides the theoretical and practical tools for describing the fluctuations of pointwise regularity in data and has led to many successful applications in signal and imageprocessing. Originally limited to the analysis of single time series or images, a definition of multivariate multifractal analysis, i.e., the joint multifractal analysis of several data components, was recently proposed and was shown to effectively quantify local or transient dependencies in data regularity, beyond linear correlation. However, the accurate estimation of the associated matrix-valued joint multifractality parameters is notoriously difficult, thus limiting its practical usefulness. Leveraging a recent statistical model for bivariate multifractality, the goal of this work is to define and study Bayesian estimators designed to bypass this difficulty. Specifically, we study the original use of two different priors, combined with two different averages (arithmetic and Karcher means), for bivariate multifractal analysis. Monte Carlo simulations with synthetic data allow us to appreciate their relative performance and to conclude that our novel and original estimator based on a scaled inverse Wishart prior and the Karcher mean yields particularly favorable results with up to 5 times smaller root-mean-squared error than previous formulations.
In some practical situations, images are set on a circle. For example, images of the facies (thin film) of dried biological fluid, eyes, cut of a tree trunk, etc. Currently, most of the imageprocessing works deal wit...

Due to the progress of computer technology, imageprocessing-based applications become more and more important not only in advanced research fields but also in our daily life. For example, biomedical imageprocessing, autonomous vehicles, video surveillance, computer vision, augmented reality, and many more are some hotspots in research as well as the applications. The technology of image segmentation is the basis of all these applications. In this review, we summarize the traditional image segmentation methods and algorithms including segmentation based on thresholding, segmentation based on graph theory, and segmentation based on region. Also, due to the exceptional performance of the CNN model, a series of CNN-based segmentation algorithms were proposed. Along with the invention of these new approaches, segmentation task has been pushed to a higher accuracy and efficiency level. Thus, we also summarize the major CNN-based model, such as the FCN model, the Encoder-Decoder designed architectures, the Multi-scale and Pyramid-based architectures, and Deeplab Family. Moreover, we provide some information on some popular datasets and metrics to rigorously evaluate a model, and we provide tables that contain the quantitative information on each model's performance. Even though the outcomes of current models have reached a significant level, there are still many problems that need to be tackled. At last, we provide our opinion regarding the current situation in image segmentation field.

Sparse representation, statistical and probabilistic approach have been used in imageprocessing applications. Here, simple technique is used to denoise Hyper-spectral image by using sparse representation. Main focus is to transform the given image into another form which is combination of dictionary and sparse vector. So, basic statisticalmethods are used for the updation of dictionary and also for sparse coding. Then, probabilistic approach is used to determine new size of dictionary and this new dictionary is used to achieve denoised image and finally, peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR) is used to measure performance of denoising methods.

Networks are useful representations of many systems with interacting entities, such as social, biological and physical systems. Characterizing the meso-scale organization, i.e. the community structure, is an important problem in network science. Community detection aims to partition the network into sets of nodes that are densely connected internally but sparsely connected to other dense sets of nodes. Current work on community detection mostly focuses on static networks. However, many real world networks are dynamic, i.e. their structure and properties change with time, requiring methods for dynamic community detection. In this paper, we propose a new stochastic block model (SBM) for modeling the evolution of community membership. Unlike existing SBMs, the proposed model allows each community to evolve at a different rate. This new model is used to derive a maximum a posteriori estimator for community detection, which can be written as a constrained spectral clustering problem. In particular, the transition probabilities for each community modify the graph adjacency matrix at each time point. This formulation provides a relationship between statistical network inference and spectral clustering for dynamic networks. The proposed method is evaluated on both simulated and real dynamic networks.

While deep neural networks (DNNs) have achieved state-of-the-art results in many fields, they are typically over-parameterized. Parameter redundancy, in turn, leads to inefficiency. Sparse signal recovery (SSR) techniques, on the other hand, find compact solutions to overcomplete linear problems. Therefore, a logical step is to draw the connection between SSR and DNNs. In this paper, we explore the application of iterative reweighting methods popular in SSR to learning efficient DNNs. By efficient, we mean sparse networks that require less computation and storage than the original, dense network. We propose a reweighting framework to learn sparse connections within a given architecture without biasing the optimization process, by utilizing the affine scaling transformation strategy. The resulting algorithm, referred to as Sparsity-promoting stochastic Gradient Descent (SSGD), has simple gradient-based updates which can be easily implemented in existing deep learning libraries. We demonstrate the sparsification ability of SSGD on image classification tasks and show that it outperforms existing methods on the MNIST and CIFAR-10 datasets.

With the continuous emergence of digital images and digital videos, a large number of images containing sensitive information need to be kept secret, and a large number of digital media works need intellectual property protection. image security and confidentiality technology has become another hot spot in the field of information security. In view of the shortcomings of the statisticalprocessing algorithm for the verification results adopted by various enterprises in the network information security evaluation, through the research on the characteristics of computer security, this paper compares the selection of weights in the commonly used weighted arithmetic average method. image information encryption originates from the early classical encryption theory. Its purpose is to transform a given image into a disordered image in the spatial or frequency domain according to certain transformation rules, so as to hide the real information of the image information itself. How to protect image information security has become a hot topic in the international research. In order to better adapt to the unique nature of image information and meet the needs of data security and copyright protection, scholars are actively seeking new technologies and methods. This paper studies the basic algorithm of wavelet neural network and applies it to image information security. The main idea of the algorithm is to combine the theory of wavelet transform with the algorithm of neural network, and then get the algorithm of wavelet neural network.
