A Secure Learned Image Codec for Authenticity Verification via Self-Destructive Compression by Chen-Hsiu Huang, Ja-Ling Wu

“…In this paper, we propose a novel full-resolution secure learned image codec (SLIC) designed to proactively prevent image manipulation by creating self-destructive artifacts upon re-compression. Once a sensitive image is encoded using SLIC, any subsequent re-compression or editing attempts will result in visually severe distortions, making the image’s tampering immediately evident. …”
