    Abstract: A method and a device for detecting copies or near-copies of images, comprises receiving an initial image, converting the initial image to grayscale, resizing the grayed image to a reduced image having a plurality of rows and an even number of columns, computing an overall signature for the reduced image, and determining whether the initial image is a copy or near-copy of an image according to the result of a comparison between the overall signature of the reduced image and reference image signatures. The step of computing the overall signature comprises the steps of computing a row signature for each row of the reduced image, the computation being based on a comparison of values obtained statistically across subsets of symmetrical pixels in each row, and concatenating the row signatures in order to obtain an overall signature.
