Robust tampering detection and localization of composite image by Xiao WANG, Rong ZHANG, Lijun GUO

“…Aiming at the problem of tamper detection of composite image of natural images and highly simulated computer-generated images,a method of extracting image block color and texture feature based on differential histogram and local binary texture descriptor in YCbCr color space was proposed.By training posterior probability support vector machine,the image block to be measured was identified.In the case of non-overlapping block,the approximate tampering area was general judged,then the block was discriminated by pixel in the region,ultimately the accurate location of tampering area was achieved.The experimental results show that the recognition rate of 128 dpi×128 dpi image blocks is 94.75%,which is higher than other methods.The tapering region of the synthesized image can be precisely positioned,and the rotation and scaling operation show good coercivity.…”
