Image Forensics

On the Generalization of GAN Image Forensics

Recently the GAN generated face images are more and more realistic with high-quality, even hard for human eyes to detect. On the other hand, the forensics community keeps on developing methods to detect these generated fake images and try to …

Image Forensics Based on Planar Contact Constraints of 3D Objects

Standing objects on planar surfaces are common to see in images, e.g., people on the ground. For most objects to stay stable on the plane, planar contact is a necessary requirement. However, 2D image splicing usually disregards this physical …

Optimized 3D Lighting Environment Estimation for Image Forgery Detection

Image forgery is becoming a growing threat to information credibility. Among all kinds of image forgeries, photographic composites of human faces have very serious impacts. To combat this kind of forgery, some forensic methods propose to estimate the …

Image Forgery Detection Based on Semantic Image Understanding

Image forensics has been focusing on low-level visual features, paying little attention to high-level semantic information of the image. In this work, we propose the framework for image forgery detection based on high-level semantics with three …

Automatic detection of 3D lighting inconsistencies via a facial landmark based morphable model

Existing 3D lighting consistency based forensic methods have some practical problems. They usually require additional images and human labor to reconstruct the 3D face model for lighting estimation, and furthermore, they cannot deal with expressional …

Exploring DCT Coefficient Quantization Effects for Local Tampering Detection

In this paper, we focus on local image tampering detection. For a JPEG image, the probability distributions of its DCT coefficients will be disturbed by tampering operation. The tampered region and the unchanged region have different distributions, …

CASIA Image Tampering Detection Evaluation Database

Image forensics has now raised the anxiety of justice as increasing cases of abusing tampered images in newspapers and court for evidence are reported recently. With the goal of verifying image content authenticity, passive-blind image tampering …

Tampered Region Localization of Digital Color Images Based on JPEG Compression Noise

With the availability of various digital image edit tools, seeing is no longer believing. In this paper, we focus on tampered region localization for image forensics. We propose an algorithm which can locate tampered region(s) in a lossless …
