Description
Dr. Hany Farid, Dartmouth College professor, Department of Computer Science, will talk about Photo Forensics. The issue of photographic trust and forensics currently impacts many areas of science, law, ethics, journalism, law enforcement, and finance. The average person's inability to readily distinguish between the real and the fake impacts our relationship with photography and photographers. The field of photo forensics has emerged to help return some trust in photography.
