Abstract

Copy-move forgery detection is a common image tampering detection technology. In this paper, a novel copy-move forgery detection scheme is proposed. The proposed scheme is based on Regional Density Center (RDC) clustering and Refined Length Homogeneity Filtering (RLHF) policy. First, to obtain an adequate number of keypoints in smooth or small areas of the image, the proposed scheme employs scale normalization and adjustment of the contrast threshold of the input image. Subsequently, to speed up the feature matching process, a matching algorithm based on gray value grouping is used to match the keypoints. RLHF policy is applied to filter the mismatched pairs. To guarantee a good estimation of the affine transformation, the RDC clustering algorithm is proposed to group the matched pairs. Finally, the correlation coefficients are computed to precisely locate the tampered regions. The proposed copy-move forgery detection scheme based on RDC and RLHF can effectively identify duplicated regions of digital images. It demonstrates the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed scheme over many state-of-the-art schemes on public datasets.
