Image Hashing for Tamper Detection with Multiview Embedding and Perceptual Saliency by Ling Du, Zhen Chen, Yongzhen Ke

“…However, most existing methods generate hashing code by treating each region equally while ignoring the different perceptual saliency relating to the semantic information. We argue that the integrity for salient objects is more critical and important to be verified, since the semantic content is highly connected to them. …”
