Abstract

Blind image forgery prediction in the field of image forgery is difficult. Hence, it is the major attention for the investigators recently. This work introduces an innovative methodology for blind image forgery detection. The steps are described as: initially, input images are pre-processed using hybrid homomorphic filtering to enhance the images. After pre-processing images, features such as Hybrid Speeded up Robust features and scale-invariant feature transform (hybrid SURF-SIFT) and hybrid wavelet features are extracted. According to the extracted features hybrid deep belief neural network (HDBN) framework performs the block matching to examine the forgery region in images. Here, modified atom search optimization is utilized for weights optimization in HDBN framework and improving the performance of matching process. The HDBN framework detects non matching regions, and finally, the forgery region is accurately localized with the presented Adaptive fuzzy clustering based improved sun flower optimization (AFCSO) approach. The implementation platform used in work is PYTHON. The presented technique is tested with three datasets: CG-1050, SMIFD, and Coverage. Moreover, the experimental results of the presented approach is examined with the existing techniques in regard to accuracy, precision, recall, F-measure, True positive rate, False positive rate, True negative rate, and False-negative rate. The performance measures of forgery detection with CG-1050 dataset is F-measure (98.98%), Accuracy (99%), recall (98%), precision (99.9%), True positive rate (99.5%), False positive rate (0.4%), True negative rate (99.7%), False negative rate (2%). The performance measures of forgery detection with SMIFD dataset is F-measure (99.15%), True positive rate (99.57%), Accuracy (98.67%), precision (99.57%), false-positive rate (1.56%), True negative rate (98.43%), and false-negative rate (1.25%). The performance measures of forgery detection with COVERAGE dataset is F-measure (98%), True positive rate (98%), False positive rate (2%), Accuracy (98.3%), precision (97.1%), True negative rate (98%), False negative rate (2%). This proved that the presented approach outperforms the compared existing approaches.
