Reference set
Known-source images establish the candidate sensor residual.
Compare a questioned image with original photos from a known camera.
See how it worksCamera sensors leave tiny patterns in their images. Comparing those patterns is called PRNU attribution—a kind of camera fingerprint, not a fingerprint of a person.
A claim includes a photograph said to come from one particular camera.

A signal, the reason behind it, and a practical next step. This guided example uses fixed sample findings, not a live detection model.
Use suitable original reference photos to test that source. A weak or missing match is inconclusive, not a fake verdict.

The guided sample supports a same-camera hypothesis within stated thresholds.
Known-source images establish the candidate sensor residual.
PRNU tests a same-camera hypothesis. Failure is inconclusive, and the method does not determine whether content is real, fake, or AI-generated.
Collect 3–20 original images from one known camera.
Estimate sensor residuals while masking unreliable regions.
Compare the questioned residual to the enrolled reference.
Support same-camera or return inconclusive—never real/fake.
