Decentralizing video copyright protection: a novel blockchain-enabled framework with performance evaluation

Phash techniques play a crucial role in multimedia content analysis, particularly in verifying the integrity and similarity of the video data under various transformations. Additionally, the framework generates Inter Planetary File System (IPFS) main values that signifies the ownership of the video content. Then it compars the phash values, IPFS and similarly score in public Blockchain environment i.e. Ethereum. The framework performance was measured by simulating the contracts of the Application Binary Interface (ABI), JSON file in the Hyperledger Caliper environment. This result shows the performance in the form of video registration, the measured latency was 5.02 seconds with a throughput of 409.87 seconds. For video verification the latency was 4.57 seconds with a throughput of 484.23 seconds.
