Abstract

Due to the easy manipulation and alteration of digital images using widely available software tools, forgery detection is emerged as a primary goal in image forensics. A common form of manipulation is to combine parts of the image fragment into another different image to remove objects from the image. Inspired by the image registration concept, we exploit the correlation-based alignment method to automatically identify the spliced region in any fragment of the reference images. We show the efficacy of the proposed scheme on revealing the source of spliced regions. We anticipate this scheme to be the first concrete technique towards appropriate tools which are necessary for exposing digital forgeries.
