Abstract

Image splicing is one of the most frequently exercised in the area of image forgery that is quite challenging to be identified. After reviewing existing techniques towards identification of spliced region, it was found that existing techniques are either computationally expensive or do not address the cumulative problem. Hence, this paper, a novel and simple algorithm is presented called as ASRD i.e. Algorithm for Spliced Region Detection. A simple statistical-based approach is presented that perform partitioned blocks followed by detection of various artifacts among the neighbor blocks. The algorithm then implicates a classification condition for tampered and non-tampered region to truly identify the spliced region. With an aid of histogram analysis, true positive score, true negative score, accuracy and computational performance, the proposed algorithm was found to excel better performance in detection of spliced region.
