With the advancement in technology, digital data such as image, video, etc. can be easily manipulated. Image hashing is a method that can be used for authentication and identification of digital images. In this communication, a robust image hashing technique is proposed using scale invariant feature transform (SIFT), singular value decomposition (SVD) and Zernike moment. Zernike moment is used to restore the image against the rotation attack. Potential points are generated from the image by using SIFT. Block processing of equal size is performed on the input image. Key points within the same block are used to generate hashing values. The experimental outcome shows that the proposed technique can withstand different types of attacks. Receiver operating characteristic curve comparison specifies that our method outperforms other existing methods under consideration.

Abstract


With the advancement in technology, digital data such as image, video, etc. can be easily manipulated. Image hashing is a method that can be used for authentication and identification of digital images. In this communication, a robust image hashing technique is proposed using scale invariant feature transform (SIFT), singular value decomposition (SVD) and Zernike moment. Zernike moment is used to restore the image against the rotation attack. Potential points are generated from the image by using SIFT. Block processing of equal size is performed on the input image. Key points within the same block are used to generate hashing values. The experimental outcome shows that the proposed technique can withstand different types of attacks. Receiver operating characteristic curve comparison specifies that our method outperforms other existing methods under consideration.
