The copyright infringement is a critical issue for original copyright owners of multimedia objects like videos, photographs and graphic designs which are uploaded on various peer-to-peer image sharing systems and websites. Copyright infringement negatively impacts copyright holders' interest by performing some extent of modifications in the original uploaded content. Various frame modification and image processing techniques like frame compression, frame speed manipulation, grayscale conversion, cropping and rotation are used by the copyright violators for modification of the original multimedia content. This paper proposes a perceptual hashing technique using Karhunen-Loeve Transform (K-L Transform) for detecting the copyright violations of the multimedia content, so the work acknowledgement should be provided to the original copyright holders.
