File carving is a recovery technique allowing file recovery without knowledge about
contextual information such as file system metadata. Due to recent advancements in …

Over 20 studies have been published in the past decade involving file and data type
classification for digital forensics and information security applications. Methods using n …

We have applied the generalised and universal distance measure NCD—Normalised
Compression Distance—to the problem of determining the type of file fragments. To enable …

File carving is a recovery technique that recovers files based on information about their
structure and content without matching file system information. As files can be recovered …

Retrieval of files without the support of file system structures is arguably essential for digital
forensics. Files are typically stored as sequences of data blocks, which have to be …

We propose CAEMSI, a cross-domain analytic evaluation methodology for Style Imitation
(SI) systems, based on a set of statistical significance tests that allow hypotheses comparing …

File fragment classification is an important and difficult problem in digital forensics. Previous
works in this area mainly relied on specific byte sequences in file headers and footers, or …

Security and privacy concerns are challenging the way users interact with devices. The
number of devices connected to a home or enterprise network increases every day …

Data and file type classification research conducted over the past ten to fifteen years has
been dominated by competing experiments that only vary the number of classes, types of …

An efficient DNA compressor furnishes an approximation to measure and compare
information quantities present in, between and across DNA sequences, regardless of the …
