• Abstract: Seam carving is a computational method capable of resizing images for both reduction and expansion based on its content, instead of the image geometry. Although the technique is mostly employed to deal with redundant information, i.e., regions composed of pixels with similar intensity, it can also be used for tampering images by inserting or removing relevant objects. Therefore, detecting such a process is of extreme importance regarding the image security domain. However, recognizing seam-carved images does not represent a straightforward task even for human eyes, and robust computation tools capable of identifying such alterations are very desirable. In this paper, we propose an end-to-end approach to cope with the problem of automatic seam carving detection that can obtain state-of-the-art results. Experiments conducted over public and private datasets with several tampering configurations evidence the suitability of the proposed model.

  Sequential deepfake detection aims to identify forged facial regions with the correct sequence for recovery. The recovery of forged images requires knowledge of the manipulation model to implement inverse transformations. We propose Multi-Collaboration and Multi-Supervision Network (MMNet) that handles various spatial scales and sequential permutations in forged face images.

  We propose an end-to-end approach to verify whether the purported time of capture of an image is consistent with its content and geographic location. The central idea is the use of supervised consistency verification, in which we predict the probability that the image content, capture time, and geographical location are consistent. Our approach improves upon previous work on a large benchmark dataset, increasing the classification accuracy from 59.03% to 81.07%.
