The introduction of digital medical images requires a legally binding digital signature that guarantees authenticity and integrity of the image. In real-time teleradiology services, the system is expected to respond very quickly however to verify the signature a considerable amount of time is spent to compute the hash value of the image since the image size might be huge (tens of megabytes). Motivating by this fact, in this paper we propose EVEREST, an efficient methodology for verification. The key observation we have made is that in the traditional verification the processor of the verifying machine is idle (I/O blocked) while the image is downloaded. In EVEREST, to improve the real-time efficiency the receiver can perform most of the hash computation while he is receiving the image itself. One other important advantage of our scheme is the communication efficiency since getting the entire image file is no longer necessary to detect the tampering.

Robust watermarking of images Balcı, Salih Eren; Akar, Gözde; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2003) Digital image watermarking has gained a great interest in the last decade among researchers. Having such a great community which provide a continuously growing list of proposed algorithms, it is rapidly finding solutions to its problems. However, still we are far away from being successful. Therefore, more and more people are entering the field to make the watermarking idea useful and reliable for digital world. Of these various watermarking algorithms, some outperform others in terms of basic watermarking ...
Template based image watermarking in the fractional fourier domain Gökozan, Tolga; Akar, Gözde; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2005) One of the main features of digital technology is that the digital media can be duplicated and reproduced easily. However, this allows unauthorized and illegal use of information, i.e. data piracy. To protect digital media against illegal attempts a signal, called watermark, is embedded into the multimedia data in a robust and invisible manner. A watermark is a short sequence of information, which contains owner2s identity. It is used for evidence of ownership and copyright purposes. In this thesis, we use ...
HANOLISTIC: A Hierarchical Automatic Image Annotation System Using Holistic Approach Karadag, Ozge Oztimur; Yarman Vural, Fatoş Tunay (2009-06-25) Automatic image annotation is the process of assigning keywords to digital images depending on the content information. In one sense, it is a mapping from the visual content information to the semantic context information. In this study, we propose a novel approach for automatic image annotation problem, where the annotation is formulated as a multivariate mapping from a set of independent descriptor spaces, representing a whole image, to a set of words, representing class labels. For this purpose, a hierar...

Downloading of the abstract is permitted for personal use only.The real-Time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analysis using nasal swab samples is the gold standard approach for COVID-19 diagnosis. However, due to the high false-negative rate at lower viral loads and complex test procedure, PCR is not suitable for fast mass screening. Therefore, the need for a highly sensitive and rapid detection system based on easily collected fluids such as saliva during the pandemic has emerged. In t...
