Automated detection of tampered images

Abstract:

A content analyzer determines whether various types of modification have been made to images. The content analyzer computes JPEG ghosts from the images that are concatenated with the image channels to generate a feature vector. The feature vector is provided as input to a neural network that determines whether the types of modification have been made to the image. The neural network may include a constrained convolution layer and several unconstrained convolution layers. An image fake model may also be applied to determine whether the image was generated using a computer model or algorithm.
