FTIP: A tool for an image plagiarism detection

Abstract

The goal of this paper is to introduce a task of image plagiarism detection. More specifically, we propose a method of searching for a plagiarized image in a database. The main requirements for searching in the database are computational speed and success rate. The proposed method is based on the technique of F-transform, particularly Fs-transform, s ≥ 0. This technique significantly reduces the domain dimension and therefore, is speeds-up the whole process. we present several experiments and measurements which prove the speed and accuracy of our method. We also propose examples to demonstrate an ability of using this method in many applications.
