"Trust and Technology"
We are living in a world where seeing and hearing are no longer believing. The technology that allows for digital media to be manipulated and distorted is developing at break-neck speeds. These advances in digital technology are affecting nearly every corner of our lives: law enforcement, the courts, the media, scientific journals, medicine, business and more. At the same time our understanding of the technological, ethical, and legal implications is lagging behind. To this end, there is a significant need for mathematical and computational algorithms to detect tampering in digital media.
