BLUR-INVARIANT COPY-MOVE FORGERY DETECTION TECHNIQUE WITH IMPROVED DETECTION ACCURACY UTILIZING SWT-SVD
With the increase in interchange of data, there is a growing necessity of security. Considering the volumes of digital data that is transmitted, they are in need to be secure. Among the many forms of tampering possible, one widespread technique is Copy Move Forgery (CMF). This forgery occurs when parts of the image are copied and duplicated elsewhere in the same image. There exist a number of algorithms to detect such a forgery in which the primary step involved is feature extraction. The feature extraction techniques employed must have lesser time and space complexity involved for an efficient and faster processing of media. Also, majority of the existing state of art techniques often tend to falsely match similar genuine objects as copy move forged during the detection process. To tackle these problems, the paper proposes a novel algorithm that recognizes a unique approach of using Hu’s Invariant Moments and Log-polar Transformations to reduce feature vector dimension to one feature per block simultaneously detecting CMF among genuine similar objects in an image. The qualitative and quantitative results obtained demonstrate the effectiveness of this algorithm
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
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
Hybrid LSTM and Encoder-Decoder Architecture for Detection of Image Forgeries
With advanced image journaling tools, one can easily alter the semantic
meaning of an image by exploiting certain manipulation techniques such as
copy-clone, object splicing, and removal, which mislead the viewers. In
contrast, the identification of these manipulations becomes a very challenging
task as manipulated regions are not visually apparent. This paper proposes a
high-confidence manipulation localization architecture which utilizes
resampling features, Long-Short Term Memory (LSTM) cells, and encoder-decoder
network to segment out manipulated regions from non-manipulated ones.
Resampling features are used to capture artifacts like JPEG quality loss,
upsampling, downsampling, rotation, and shearing. The proposed network exploits
larger receptive fields (spatial maps) and frequency domain correlation to
analyze the discriminative characteristics between manipulated and
non-manipulated regions by incorporating encoder and LSTM network. Finally,
decoder network learns the mapping from low-resolution feature maps to
pixel-wise predictions for image tamper localization. With predicted mask
provided by final layer (softmax) of the proposed architecture, end-to-end
training is performed to learn the network parameters through back-propagation
using ground-truth masks. Furthermore, a large image splicing dataset is
introduced to guide the training process. The proposed method is capable of
localizing image manipulations at pixel level with high precision, which is
demonstrated through rigorous experimentation on three diverse datasets
