abstract = {This paper describes RIME (Replicated IMage dEtector), an
alternative approach to watermarking for detecting unauthorized image
copying on the Internet. RIME profiles internet images and stores the
feature vectors of the images and their URLs in its repository. When a
copy detection request is received, RIME matches the requested image's
feature vector with the vectors stored in the repository and returns a
list of suspect URLs. RIME characterizes each image using Daubechies'
wavelets. The wavelet coefficients are stored as the feature vector.
RIME uses a multidimensional extensible hashing scheme to index these
high-dimensional feature vectors. Our preliminary result shows that it
can detect image copies effectively: It can find the top suspects and
copes well with image format conversion, resampling, and
requantization.},
