Abstract

Due to the availability of media editing software, the authenticity and reliability of digital images are important. Region manipulation is a simple and effective method for digital image forgeries. Hence, the potential to identify the image manipulation is current research issue these days and copy–move forgery detection (CMFD) is a main domain in image authentication. In copy–move forgery, one region is simply copied and pasted over other region in the same image for manipulating the image. In this paper, we have proposed a method based on Harris corner and adaptive non-maximal Suppression (ANMS). Initially, the input image is taken, and then Harris corner detection algorithm is used to detect the interest points, and ANMS is adopted to control the number of Harris points in an image. This gives an appropriate number of interest points for different size of images and gives the assurance for finding the manipulated region in manageable time. For each extracted interest point, SIFT is used for calculating the descriptors. Now obtained descriptors are matched using the outlier rejection with nearest neighbour. Here RANSAC is used to find the best set of matches to identify the manipulated regions. Experimental results show the robustness against different transformation and post-processing operations.
