There...Copy-move offense is considerably used to conceal or hide several data in the digital image for specific aim, and onto this offense some portion of the genuine image is reduplicated and pasted in the same image. Therefore, Copy-Move forgery is a very significant problem and active research area to check the confirmation of the image. In this paper, a system for Copy Move Forgery detection is proposed. The proposed system is composed of two stages: one is called the detection stages and the second is called the refine detection stage. The detection stage is executed using Speeded-Up Robust Feature (SURF) and Binary Robust Invariant Scalable Keypoints (BRISK) for feature detection and in the refine detection stage, image registration using non-linear transformation is used to enhance detection efficiency. Initially, the genuine image is picked, and then both SURF and BRISK feature extractions are used in parallel to detect the interest keypoints. This gives an appropriate number of interest points and gives the assurance for finding the majority of the manipulated regions. RANSAC is employed to find the superior group of matches to differentiate the manipulated parts. Then, non-linear transformation between the best-matched sets from both extraction features is used as an optimization to get the best-matched set and detect the copied regions. A number of numerical experiments performed using many benchmark datasets such as, the CASIA v2.0, MICC-220, MICC-F600 and MICC-F2000 datasets. With the proposed algorithm, an overall average detection accuracy of 95.33% is obtained for evaluation carried out with the aforementioned databases. Forgery detection achieved True Positive Rate of 97.4% for tampered images with object translation, different degree of rotation and enlargement. Thus, results from different datasets have been set, proving that the proposed algorithm can individuate the altered areas, with high reliability and dealing with multiple cloning.展开更多

The main method used is lip-audio matching detection technology based on the Siamese neural network, combined with MFCC (Mel Frequency Cepstrum Coefficient) feature extraction of band-pass filters, an improved dual-branch Siamese network structure, and a two-stream network structure design. Firstly, the video stream is preprocessed to extract lip images, and the audio stream is preprocessed to extract MFCC features. Then, these features are processed separately through the two branches of the Siamese network. Finally, the model is trained and optimized through fully connected layers and loss functions. The experimental results show that the testing accuracy of the model in this study on the LRW (Lip Reading in the Wild) dataset reaches 92.3%;the recall rate is 94.3%;the F1 score is 93.3%, significantly better than the results of CNN (Convolutional Neural Networks) and LSTM (Long Short-Term Memory) models. In the validation of multi-resolution image streams, the highest accuracy of dual-resolution image streams reaches 94%. Band-pass filters can effectively improve the signal-to-noise ratio of deep forgery video detection when processing different types of audio signals. The real-time processing performance of the model is also excellent, and it achieves an average score of up to 5 in user research. These data demonstrate that the method proposed in this study can effectively fuse visual and audio information in deep forgery video detection, accurately identify inconsistencies between video and audio, and thus verify the effectiveness of lip-audio modality fusion technology in improving detection performance.展开更多

In this paper, we propose a method based on the assumption that the correlation coefficients of gray values is consistent in an original video, while in forgeries the consistency will be destroyed. We first extract the consistency of correlation coefficients of gray values (CCCoGV for short) after normalization and quantization as distinguishing feature to identify interframe forgeries. Then we test the CCCoGV in a large database with the help of SVM (Support Vector Machine). Experimental results show that the proposed method is efficient in classifying original videos and forgeries. Furthermore, the proposed method performs also pretty well in classifying frame insertion and frame deletion forgeries.展开更多

Although the keypoint-based methods have the advantages of strong robustness and low computational cost,they cannot identify the flat duplicated regions without reliable extracted features. In this paper, we propose a new CMFD method by using speeded-up robust feature(SURF)in the opponent color space. Our method starts by converting the inspected image from RGB to the opponent color space. The color gradient per pixel is calculated and taken as the work space for SURF to extract the keypoints. The matched keypoints are clustered and their geometric transformations are estimated. Finally, the false matches are removed. Experimental results show that the proposed technique can effectively expose the duplicated regions with various transformations, even when the duplication regions are flat.展开更多

Aiming at this problem, an effective method based on image segmentation and swarm intelligent （SI） algorithm is proposed. This method segments image into small nonoverlapping blocks. A calculation of smooth degree is given for each block. Test image is segmented into independent layers according to the smooth degree. SI algorithm is applied in finding the optimal detection parameters for each layer. These parameters are used to detect each layer by scale invariant features transform （SIFT）-based scheme, which can locate a mass of keypoints. The experimental results prove the good performance of the proposed method, which is effective to identify the CMF image with small or smooth cloned region.展开更多

The development of computing capabilitieshas led to a breakthrough in hacking and forgery attacks on signal, image,and data communicated over networks. Hence, there is an urgent need fordeveloping efficient image forgery detection algorithms. Two main types offorgery are considered in this paper: splicing and copy-move. Splicing isperformed by inserting a part of an image into another image. On the otherhand, copy-move forgery is performed by copying a part of the image intoanother position in the same image. The proposed approach for splicingdetection is based on the assumption that illumination between the originaland tampered images is different. To detect the difference between the originaland tampered images, the homomorphic transform separates the illuminationcomponent from the reflectance component. The illumination histogramderivative is used for detecting the difference in illumination, and henceforgery detection is accomplished. Prior to performing the forgery detectionprocess, some pre-processing techniques, including histogram equalization,histogram matching, high-pass filtering, homomorphic enhancement, andsingle image super-resolution, are introduced to reinforce the details andchanges between the original and embedded sections. The proposed approachfor copy-move forgery detection is performed with the Speeded Up RobustFeatures (SURF) algorithm, which extracts feature points and feature vectors. Searching for the copied partition is accomplished through matchingwith Euclidian distance and hierarchical clustering. In addition, some preprocessing methods are used with the SURF algorithm, such as histogramequalization and single-mage super-resolution. Simulation results proved thefeasibility and the robustness of the pre-processing step in homomorphicdetection and SURF detection algorithms for splicing and copy-move forgerydetection, respectively.展开更多

Firstly, the probabilis...Detecting the forgery parts from a double compressed image is very important and urgent work for blind authentication. A very simple and efficient method for accomplishing the task is proposed. Firstly, the probabilistic model with periodic effects in double quantization is analyzed, and the probability of quantized DCT coefficients in each block is calculated over the entire iraage. Secondly, the posteriori probability of each block is computed according to Bayesian theory and the results mentioned in first part. Then the mean and variance of the posteriori probability are to be used for judging whether the target block is tampered. Finally, the mathematical morphology operations are performed to reduce the false alarm probability. Experimental results show that the method can exactly locate the doctored part, and through the experiment it is also found that for detecting the tampered regions, the higher the second compression quality is, the more exact the detection efficiency is.展开更多

Our method starts by converting the inspected image from RGB to the opponent color space. The color gradient per pixel is calculated and taken as the work space for SURF to extract the keypoints. The matched keypoints are clustered and their geometric transformations are estimated. Finally, the false matches are removed. Experimental results show that the proposed technique can effectively expose the duplicated regions with various transformations, even when the duplication regions are flat.

文摘An effective algorithm is proposed to detect copy-move forgery.In this algorithm,first,the PatchMatch algorithm is improved by using a reliable order-statistics-based approximate nearest neighbor search algorithm(ROSANNA)to modify the propagation process.Then,fractional quaternion Zernike moments(FrQZMs)are considered to be features extracted from color forged images.Finally,the extracted FrQZMs features are matched by the improved PatchMatch algorithm.The experimental results on two publicly available datasets(FAU and GRIP datasets)show that the proposed algorithm performs better than the state-of-the-art algorithms not only in objective criteria F-measure value but also in visual.Moreover,the proposed algorithm is robust to some attacks,such as additive white Gaussian noise,JPEG compression,rotation,and scaling.

文摘Small or smooth cloned regions are difficult to be detected in image copy-move forgery （CMF） detection. Aiming at this problem, an effective method based on image segmentation and swarm intelligent （SI） algorithm is proposed. This method segments image into small nonoverlapping blocks. A calculation of smooth degree is given for each block. Test image is segmented into independent layers according to the smooth degree. SI algorithm is applied in finding the optimal detection parameters for each layer. These parameters are used to detect each layer by scale invariant features transform （SIFT）-based scheme, which can locate a mass of keypoints. The experimental results prove the good performance of the proposed method, which is effective to identify the CMF image with small or smooth cloned region.

文摘Copy-Move Forgery(CMF) is one of the simple and effective operations to create forged digital images.Recently,techniques based on Scale Invariant Features Transform(SIFT) are widely used to detect CMF.Various approaches under the SIFT-based framework are the most acceptable ways to CMF detection due to their robust performance.However,for some CMF images,these approaches cannot produce satisfactory detection results.For instance,the number of the matched keypoints may be too less to prove an image to be a CMF image or to generate an accurate result.Sometimes these approaches may even produce error results.According to our observations,one of the reasons is that detection results produced by the SIFT-based framework depend highly on parameters whose values are often determined with experiences.These values are only applicable to a few images,which limits their application.To solve the problem,a novel approach named as CMF Detection with Particle Swarm Optimization(CMFDPSO) is proposed in this paper.CMFD-PSO integrates the Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO) algorithm into the SIFT-based framework.It utilizes the PSO algorithm to generate customized parameter values for images,which are used for CMF detection under the SIFT-based framework.Experimental results show that CMFD-PSO has good performance.

文摘Kang, et al. [Journal of Electronics(China), 23(2006)4] proposed a threshold multi-proxy multi-signature scheme, and claimed the scheme satisfies the security requirements of threshold multi-proxy multi-signature. However, in this paper, two forgery attacks are proposed to show that their schemes have serious security flaws. To overcome theses flaws, an improvement on Kang, et al.’s scheme is proposed.
文摘This paper is concerned with a vital topic in image processing:color image forgery detection. The development of computing capabilitieshas led to a breakthrough in hacking and forgery attacks on signal, image,and data communicated over networks. Hence, there is an urgent need fordeveloping efficient image forgery detection algorithms. Two main types offorgery are considered in this paper: splicing and copy-move. Splicing isperformed by inserting a part of an image into another image. On the otherhand, copy-move forgery is performed by copying a part of the image intoanother position in the same image. The proposed approach for splicingdetection is based on the assumption that illumination between the originaland tampered images is different. To detect the difference between the originaland tampered images, the homomorphic transform separates the illuminationcomponent from the reflectance component. The illumination histogramderivative is used for detecting the difference in illumination, and henceforgery detection is accomplished. Prior to performing the forgery detectionprocess, some pre-processing techniques, including histogram equalization,histogram matching, high-pass filtering, homomorphic enhancement, andsingle image super-resolution, are introduced to reinforce the details andchanges between the original and embedded sections. The proposed approachfor copy-move forgery detection is performed with the Speeded Up RobustFeatures (SURF) algorithm, which extracts feature points and feature vectors. Searching for the copied partition is accomplished through matchingwith Euclidian distance and hierarchical clustering. In addition, some preprocessing methods are used with the SURF algorithm, such as histogramequalization and single-mage super-resolution. Simulation results proved thefeasibility and the robustness of the pre-processing step in homomorphicdetection and SURF detection algorithms for splicing and copy-move forgerydetection, respectively.

文摘Detecting the forgery parts from a double compressed image is very important and urgent work for blind authentication. A very simple and efficient method for accomplishing the task is proposed. Firstly, the probabilistic model with periodic effects in double quantization is analyzed, and the probability of quantized DCT coefficients in each block is calculated over the entire iraage. Secondly, the posteriori probability of each block is computed according to Bayesian theory and the results mentioned in first part. Then the mean and variance of the posteriori probability are to be used for judging whether the target block is tampered. Finally, the mathematical morphology operations are performed to reduce the false alarm probability. Experimental results show that the method can exactly locate the doctored part, and through the experiment it is also found that for detecting the tampered regions, the higher the second compression quality is, the more exact the detection efficiency is.
文摘Digital images can be tampered easily with simple image editing software tools.Therefore,image forensic investigation on the authenticity of digital images’content is increasingly important.Copy-move is one of the most common types of image forgeries.Thus,an overview of the traditional and the recent copy-move forgery localization methods using passive techniques is presented in this paper.These methods are classified into three types:block-based methods,keypoint-based methods,and deep learning-based methods.In addition,the strengths and weaknesses of these methods are compared and analyzed in robustness and computational cost.Finally,further research directions are discussed.
文摘This paper presents an improved approach for detecting copy-move forgery based on singular value decomposition(SVD).It is a block-based method where the image is scanned from left to right and top to down by a sliding window with a determined size.At each step,the SVD is determined.First,the diagonal matrix’s maximum value(norm)is selected(representing the scaling factor for SVD and a fixed value for each set of matrix elements even when rotating thematrix or scaled).Then,the similar norms are grouped,and each leading group is separated into many subgroups(elements of each subgroup are neighbors)according to 8-adjacency(the subgroups for each leading group must be far from others by a specific distance).After that,a weight is assigned for each subgroup to classify the image as forgery or not.Finally,the F1 score of the proposed system is measured,reaching 99.1%.This approach is robust against rotation,scaling,noisy images,and illumination variation.It is compared with other similarmethods and presents very promised results.
