We live in an endless connected world of data. Linked data spans datasets, institutions, domains, and continents. It allows us to determine relations in the vast amount of digital information and to connect textual descriptive information to media files, such as provenance information. But what happens when a media file is shared out of this […]

When using a certain algorithm and use perceptually the same video you would always gets the same fingerprint. However, when a different algorithm […]
