Video Inter-frame Forgery Detection Approach for Surveillance and Mobile Recorded Videos
We are living in an age where use of multimedia technologies like digital recorders and mobile phones is increasing rapidly. On the other hand, digital content manipulating softwares are also increasing making it easy for an individual to doctor the recorded content with trivial consumption of time and wealth. Digital multimedia forensics is gaining utmost importance to restrict unethical use of such easily available tampering techniques. These days, it is common for people to record videos using their smart phones. We have also witnessed a sudden growth in the use of surveillance cameras, which we see inhabiting almost every public location. Videos recorded using these devices usually contains crucial evidence of some event occurence and thereby most susceptible to inter-frame forgery which can be easily performed by insertion/removal/replication of frame(s). The proposed forensic technique enabled detection of inter-frame forgery in H.264 and MPEG-2 encoded videos especially mobile recorded and surveillance videos. This novel method introduced objectivity for automatic detection and localization of tampering by utilizing prediction residual gradient and optical flow gradient. Experimental results showed that this technique can detect tampering with 90% true positive rate, regardless of the video codec and recording device utilized and number of frames tampered
A survey on passive digital video forgery detection techniques
Digital media devices such as smartphones, cameras, and notebooks are becoming increasingly popular. Through digital platforms such as Facebook, WhatsApp, Twitter, and others, people share digital images, videos, and audio in large quantities. Especially in a crime scene investigation, digital evidence plays a crucial role in a courtroom. Manipulating video content with high-quality software tools is easier, which helps fabricate video content more efficiently. It is therefore necessary to develop an authenticating method for detecting and verifying manipulated videos. The objective of this paper is to provide a comprehensive review of the passive methods for detecting video forgeries. This survey has the primary goal of studying and analyzing the existing passive techniques for detecting video forgeries. First, an overview of the basic information needed to understand video forgery detection is presented. Later, it provides an in-depth understanding of the techniques used in the spatial, temporal, and spatio-temporal domain analysis of videos, datasets used, and their limitations are reviewed. In the following sections, standard benchmark video forgery datasets and the generalized architecture for passive video forgery detection techniques are discussed in more depth. Finally, identifying loopholes in existing surveys so detecting forged videos much more effectively in the future are discussed
A PatchMatch-based Dense-field Algorithm for Video Copy-Move Detection and Localization
We propose a new algorithm for the reliable detection and localization of
video copy-move forgeries. Discovering well crafted video copy-moves may be
very difficult, especially when some uniform background is copied to occlude
foreground objects. To reliably detect both additive and occlusive copy-moves
we use a dense-field approach, with invariant features that guarantee
robustness to several post-processing operations. To limit complexity, a
suitable video-oriented version of PatchMatch is used, with a multiresolution
search strategy, and a focus on volumes of interest. Performance assessment
relies on a new dataset, designed ad hoc, with realistic copy-moves and a wide
variety of challenging situations. Experimental results show the proposed
method to detect and localize video copy-moves with good accuracy even in
adverse conditions
Scene Segmentation for Interframe Forgery Identification
A common type of video forgery is inter-frame forgery, which occurs in the temporal domain, such as frame duplication, frame insertion, and frame deletion. Some existing methods are not effective to detect forgeries in static scenes. This work proposes static and dynamic scene segmentation and performs forgery detection for each scene. Scene segmentation is performed for outlier detection based on changes of optical flow. Various similarity checks are performed to find the correlation for each frame. The experimental results showed that the proposed method is effective in identifying forgeries in various scenes, especially static scenes, compared with existing methods

Live GPU Forensics: The Process of Recovering Video Frames from NVIDIA GPU
The purpose of this research is to apply a graphics processing unit (GPU) forensics method to recover video artifacts from NVIDIA GPU. The tested video specs are 512 x 512 in resolution for video 1 and 800 x 600 in resolution for video 2. Both videos are mpeg4 video codec. A VLC player was used in the experiment. A special program has been developed using OpenCL to recover 1) patterns that are frames consist of pixel values and 2) dump data from the GPU global memory. The dump data that represent the video frame were located using simple steps. The recovery process was successful. For 512 x 512 resolution video, the frames were partially recovered but it shows enough information for the forensics investigator to determine what was viewed last. The research indicates that it is harder, but not impossible, to obtain a viewable frame from higher-resolution vide
Non-Facial Video Spatiotemporal Forensic Analysis Using Deep Learning Techniques
Digital content manipulation software is working as a boon for people to edit recorded video or audio content. To prevent the unethical use of such readily available altering tools, digital multimedia forensics is becoming increasingly important. Hence, this study aims to identify whether the video and audio of the given digital content are fake or real. For temporal video forgery detection, the convolutional 3D layers are used to build a model which can identify temporal forgeries with an average accuracy of 85% on the validation dataset. Also, the identification of audio forgery, using a ResNet-34 pre-trained model and the transfer learning approach, has been achieved. The proposed model achieves an accuracy of 99% with 0.3% validation loss on the validation part of the logical access dataset, which is better than earlier models in the range of 90-95% accuracy on the validation set
Anti- Forensics: The Tampering of Media
In the context of forensic investigations, the traditional understanding of evidence is changing where nowadays most prosecutors, lawyers and judges heavily rely on multimedia signs. This modern shift has allowed the law enforcement to better reconstruct the crime scenes or reveal the truth of any critical event.In this paper we shed the light on the role of video, audio and photos as forensic evidences presenting the possibility of their tampering by various easy-to-use, available anti-forensics softwares. We proved that along with the forensic analysis, digital processing, enhancement and authentication via forgery detection algorithms to testify the integrity of the content and the respective source of each, differentiating between an original and altered evidence is now feasible. These operations assist the court to attain higher degree of intelligibility of the multimedia data handled and assert the information retrieved from each that support the success of the investigation process
