Abstract
There has been large amounts of research on image authentication method. Many of the schemes perform well in verification results; however, most of them are time-consuming in traditional serial manners. And improving the efficiency of authentication process has become one of the challenges in image authentication field today. In the future, it’s a trend that authentication system with the properties of high performance, real-time, flexible and ease for development. In this paper, we present a CUDA-based implementation of an image authentication algorithm with NVIDIA’s Tesla C1060 GPU devices. Comparing with the original implementation on CPU, our CUDA-based implementation works 20x-50x faster with single GPU device. And experiment shows that, by using two GPUs, the performance gains can be further improved around 1.2 times in contras to single GPU.
