Universal Counterforensics of Multiple Compressed JPEG Images
Detection of multiple JPEG compression of digital images has been attracting more and more interest in the field of multimedia forensics. On the other side, techniques to conceal the traces of multiple compression are being proposed as well. Motivated by a recent trend towards the adoption of universal approaches, we propose a counterforensic technique that makes multiple compression undetectable for any forensic detector based on the analysis of the histograms of quantized DCT coefficients. Experimental results show the effectiveness of our approach in removing the artifacts of double and also triple compression, while maintaining a good quality of the image
