Abstract:
An encoding apparatus and method for concealing an error in a video frame are provided. The encoding apparatus for concealing an error in a video frame includes a vector computation unit, a difference computation unit, and an information insertion unit. The vector computation unit computes a predicted motion vector (pMV) and a real motion vector (rMV) using a target macro block of a current frame and a motion-compensated block of a previous frame. The difference computation unit calculates a motion vector difference (MVD) using a difference between the pMV and the rMV. The information insertion unit inserts an information bit, including the MVD, into quantized discrete cosine transform (QDCT) coefficients of the video frame.
Abstract:
A method and an apparatus for recovery of a file system using metadata and data clusters. The apparatus for recovery of a file system generates an MFT entry list in a disc or an evidence image, collects at least one data cluster candidate, and uses at least one MFT entry and at least one data cluster candidate within the MFT entry list to generate at least one MFT entry-data cluster pair candidate. The apparatus for recovery of a file system analyzes the at least one MFT entry-data cluster pair candidate to determine attribute values of a virtual partition and generate the virtual partition based on the attribute values.
Abstract:
Forensic data acquisition apparatus and method. The forensic data acquisition apparatus according to an embodiment includes a command analysis unit for activating a boot loader and a Universal Serial Bus (USB) module of a smart device and analyzing a format of a flash memory read command based on results of analysis of the boot loader, a partition information analysis unit for analyzing partition information of flash memory in compliance with the flash memory read command, and a data acquisition unit for generating a dump image by dumping data stored in the flash memory based on the flash memory read command and the partition information, and for acquiring forensic data based on the dump image.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for recovering a partition based on file system metadata, which calculate core information necessary for the recovery of a partition using only the MFT entry information of $MFT and recover a deleted partition when an MBR and a GPT that correspond to the partition configuration information of a disk and a BR and a BBR that store the configuration information of a volume are deleted or destroyed. The method includes determining an unallocated area in a disk or an evidence image, collecting MFT entries from the unallocated area, generating MFT partition candidate information by analyzing the MFT entries, and creating information enabling a layout of a partition to be reconfigured based on the MFT partition candidate information, and creating a tree structure using the created information and the MFT entries.
