Powerful new beta feature in Imagetwin: AI-generated image detection is now live! Our newly released tool scans scientific articles for manipulated visuals, specifically targeting domain-specific image types like microscopy, western blots, and cell cultures.

There are appropriate and inappropriate integrity issues. With our latest update, we display confidence scores from 0% to 100% for each detected integrity issue to determine its severity.

Imagetwin now detects figure reuse across articles for all figure types, including diagrams, flowcharts, box plots, photographs, and more. While our initial focus was on life science images such as FACS plots, microscopy images, or Western blots, this update expands Imagetwin’s capabilities to cover all scientific disciplines.

We just released a new AI-based algorithm to effectively detect duplications in fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) plots. FACS plots are a common target for inappropriate image duplication.

Imagetwin now detects splicing seams in gel band images, such as western blots. A western blot consists of several lanes, whereas the procedure of removing, inserting, or re-assembling individual lanes is known as splicing.
