Forgery Detection by Internal Positional Learning of Demosaicing Traces

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

We propose 4Point (Forensics with Positional Internal Training), an unsupervised neural network trained to assess the consistency of the image colour mosaic to find forgeries. Positional learning trains the model to learn the modulo-2 position of pixels, leveraging the translation-invariance of CNN to replicate the underlying mosaic and its potential inconsistencies. Internal learning on a single potentially forged image improves adaption and robustness to varied post-processing and counter-forensics measures. This solution beats existing mosaic detection methods, is more robust to various post-processing and counter-forensic artefacts such as JPEG compression, and can exploit traces to which state-of-the-art generic neural networks are blind. Check qbammey.github.io/4point for the code.
