Patent number: 11354917Abstract: A method for detecting images of fraudulently generated or photocopied secure credential documents using texture analysis includes receiving, by one or more processors, an image of a secure credential document from a computer device. The one or more processors segment the image of the secure credential document into multiple regions. For each region of the multiple regions, the one or more processors extract local high-resolution texture features from the image of the secure credential document. The one or more processors generate a score based on the local high-resolution texture features using a machine learning model. The score is indicative of a likelihood that the image of the secure credential document is fraudulently generated or photocopied.
