Evaluation of Popular Copy-Move Forgery Detection Approaches

What is the best algorithm for copy-move forgery detection (CMFD)?

A copy-move forgery is created by copying and pasting content within the same image, and potentially postprocessing it. In recent years, the detection of copy-move forgeries has become one of the most actively researched topics in blind image forensics. A considerable number of different algorithms have been proposed focusing on different types of postprocessed copies.

In our paper "An Evaluation of Popular Copy-Move Forgery Detection Approaches" (TIFS 2012), we aim to answer which copy-move forgery detection features and which processing pipeline performs best in various postprocessing scenarios. We achieve this by casting existing algorithms in a common pipeline and examining the 15 most prominent feature sets. We also created a challenging real-world copy-move dataset, and a software framework for systematic image manipulation.
