contents With the widespread adoption of deep neural networks (DNNs), protecting intellectual property and detecting unauthorized tampering of models have become pressing challenges. Recently, Perceptual hashing has emerged as an effective approach for identifying pirated models. However, existing methods either rely on neural networks for feature extraction, demanding substantial training resources, or suffer from limited applicability and cannot be universally applied to all convolutional neural networks (CNNs). To address these limitations, we propose a lightweight CNN model hashing technique that integrates higher-order statistics (HOS) features with a chaotic mapping mechanism. Without requiring any auxiliary neural network training, our method enables efficient piracy detection and precise tampering localization. Specifically, we extract skewness, kurtosis, and structural features from the parameters of each network layer to construct a model hash that is both robust and discriminative. Additionally, we introduce chaotic mapping to amplify minor changes in model parameters by exploiting the sensitivity of chaotic systems to initial conditions, thereby facilitating accurate localization of tampered regions. Experimental results validate the effectiveness and practical value of the proposed method for model copyright protection and integrity verification.
