Boosting Image Forgery Detection using Resampling Features and Copy-move analysis
Realistic image forgeries involve a combination of splicing, resampling,
cloning, region removal and other methods. While resampling detection
algorithms are effective in detecting splicing and resampling, copy-move
detection algorithms excel in detecting cloning and region removal. In this
paper, we combine these complementary approaches in a way that boosts the
overall accuracy of image manipulation detection. We use the copy-move
detection method as a pre-filtering step and pass those images that are
classified as untampered to a deep learning based resampling detection
framework. Experimental results on various datasets including the 2017 NIST
Nimble Challenge Evaluation dataset comprising nearly 10,000 pristine and
tampered images shows that there is a consistent increase of 8%-10% in
detection rates, when copy-move algorithm is combined with different resampling
detection algorithms
Analysis of adversarial attacks against CNN-based image forgery detectors
With the ubiquitous diffusion of social networks, images are becoming a
dominant and powerful communication channel. Not surprisingly, they are also
increasingly subject to manipulations aimed at distorting information and
spreading fake news. In recent years, the scientific community has devoted
major efforts to contrast this menace, and many image forgery detectors have
been proposed. Currently, due to the success of deep learning in many
multimedia processing tasks, there is high interest towards CNN-based
detectors, and early results are already very promising. Recent studies in
computer vision, however, have shown CNNs to be highly vulnerable to
adversarial attacks, small perturbations of the input data which drive the
network towards erroneous classification. In this paper we analyze the
vulnerability of CNN-based image forensics methods to adversarial attacks,
considering several detectors and several types of attack, and testing
performance on a wide range of common manipulations, both easily and hardly
detectable
Distinguishing Computer-generated Graphics from Natural Images Based on Sensor Pattern Noise and Deep Learning
Computer-generated graphics (CGs) are images generated by computer software.
The~rapid development of computer graphics technologies has made it easier to
generate photorealistic computer graphics, and these graphics are quite
difficult to distinguish from natural images (NIs) with the naked eye. In this
paper, we propose a method based on sensor pattern noise (SPN) and deep
learning to distinguish CGs from NIs. Before being fed into our convolutional
neural network (CNN)-based model, these images---CGs and NIs---are clipped into
image patches. Furthermore, three high-pass filters (HPFs) are used to remove
low-frequency signals, which represent the image content. These filters are
also used to reveal the residual signal as well as SPN introduced by the
digital camera device. Different from the traditional methods of distinguishing
CGs from NIs, the proposed method utilizes a five-layer CNN to classify the
input image patches. Based on the classification results of the image patches,
we deploy a majority vote scheme to obtain the classification results for the
full-size images. The~experiments have demonstrated that (1) the proposed
method with three HPFs can achieve better results than that with only one HPF
or no HPF and that (2) the proposed method with three HPFs achieves 100\%
accuracy, although the NIs undergo a JPEG compression with a quality factor of
75.Comment: This paper has been published by Sensors. doi:10.3390/s18041296;

All-for-One and One-For-All: Deep learning-based feature fusion for Synthetic Speech Detection
Recent advances in deep learning and computer vision have made the synthesis
and counterfeiting of multimedia content more accessible than ever, leading to
possible threats and dangers from malicious users. In the audio field, we are
witnessing the growth of speech deepfake generation techniques, which solicit
the development of synthetic speech detection algorithms to counter possible
mischievous uses such as frauds or identity thefts. In this paper, we consider
three different feature sets proposed in the literature for the synthetic
speech detection task and present a model that fuses them, achieving overall
better performances with respect to the state-of-the-art solutions. The system
was tested on different scenarios and datasets to prove its robustness to
anti-forensic attacks and its generalization capabilities.Comment: Accepted at ECML-PKDD 2023 Workshop "Deep Learning and Multimedia
