Due to the number of image editing tools available online, image tampering has been easy to execute. The quality of these tools has led these tamperings to steer clear from the naked eye. One such tampering method is called the Copy-Move tampering where a region of the image is copied and pasted elsewhere in the image. We propose a method to deal with this. First, the image is broken to blocks using discrete cosine transform. Next, the dimensionality is reduced using the gaussian RBF kernel PCA. Finally, a new iterative interest point detector is proposed and the image is then sent as input to a CNN that predicts whether the image has been forged or not. The experimental results showed that the algorithm gave an excellent percentage of accuracy, outperforming state of the art methods.
