A method for detecting a document fraud is disclosed. A first image of a first document and a second image of a second document are obtained. A procedure of detection of zones sensitive to document frauds are applied in the regions of the first image and of the second image registered on the first image. Each sensitive zone detected is then divided into a plurality of subparts. A measurement of dissimilarity is calculated between corresponding subparts from the first image and the registered second image. It is then determined whether the first document is identical to the second document from measurements of dissimilarity. If the first document is different from the second document, a level of difference is determined between the first and second documents according to a value representing a proportion of different subparts; and a fraud is detected when the level of difference is below a third predetermined threshold.

Method for detecting document fraud

A method for processing an acquired image (IA) showing a structured personal document (D) including a visual inspection zone (VIZ). The method includes determination of a first character string from an automatic reading zone or of barcode type (MRZ) of predetermined format, the first character string representing personalised information specific to the owner of the document (D), generation from the first character string of an intermediate image (IS) showing a second character string representing the same personalised information, detection in the acquired image of a third character string in the visual inspection zone (VIZ), representing the same personalised information, the detection comprising an overall comparison of the intermediate image (IS) with the acquired image, location in the visual inspection zone (VIZ) of a region of interest containing the third character string.
