Forensic Oil Master: A Multi-Modal Scientific Authentication System for Antiques Based on Nano-Mechanical, Chemical, and Morphological Fingerprinting
Abstract
This work presents the Forensic Oil Master—an open-source, forensic-grade multi-modal antique authentication system designed to eliminate counterfeiting in the antique market and replace subjective expert judgment with data-driven objectivity. Integrating four core scientific detection modalities (AFM atomic force microscopy, GC-MS gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, infrared/Raman spectroscopy, microscopic image analysis) and AI fusion decision-making, the system achieves quantitative authentication with 94.3% accuracy,
