An Overview on Passive Image Forensics Technology for Automatic Computer Forgery

Currently, with the popularity of sophisticated image editing tools like Photoshop, it is becoming very difficult to discriminate between an authentic image and its manipulated version, which poses a serious social problem of debasing the credibility of photographic images as definite records of events. Passive image forgery detection technology, as one main branch of image forensics, has been regarded as the promising research interest due to its versatility and universality. Automatic computer forgery employs computer intelligent algorithms to forge an image in an automatic way, which is rather more complex than copy-move forgery since the source of duplicated region could be non-continuous. In this paper, the authors provide a comprehensive overview of the state-of-the-art passive detection methods for automatic computer forgery.
