Title
Color laser printer forensic based on noisy feature and support vector machine classifier
Abstract
Digital forensics in the ubiquitous era can enhance and protect the reliability of multimedia content where this content is accessed, manipulated, and distributed using high quality computer devices. Color laser printer forensics is a kind of digital forensics which identifies the printing source of color printed materials such as fine arts, money, and document and helps to catch a criminal. This paper present a new color laser printer forensic algorithm based on noisy texture analysis and support vector machine classifier that can detect which color laser printer was used to print the unknown images. Since each printer vender uses their own printing process, printed documents from different venders have a little invisible difference looks like noise. In our identification scheme, the invisible noises are estimated with the wiener-filter and the 2D Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) filter. Then, a gray level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) is calculated to analyze the texture of the noise. From the GLCM, 384 statistical features are extracted and applied to train and test the support vector machine classifier for identifying the color laser printers. In the experiment, a total of 4,800 images from 8 color laser printer models were used, where half of the image is for training and the other half is for classification. Results prove that the presented algorithm performs well by achieving 99.3%, 97.4% and 88.7% accuracy for the brand, toner and model identification respectively.
