Summary
Tina Nikoukhah is VP of Research with a decade of experience applying advanced mathematics, image processing and computer vision to digital media forensics. She leads research at GetReal Security, developing algorithms that verify not just who created content but the authenticity of the content itself, informed by a PhD on JPEG forensic traces from ENS Paris-Saclay. Her work spans academia and industry—postdoc and teaching roles in media literacy, R&D in medical imaging, and hands-on system-building for large-scale automated tamper detection. Known for turning inverse-engineering theory into practical, explainable tools, she emphasizes quantifying uncertainty to move image authentication from artisanal expertise to reproducible, scalable science. Based in Versailles, she combines deep technical rigor with an educator’s skill for making complex image analysis accessible to journalists and practitioners.
