Surveillance systems are ubiquitous in our lives, and surveillance videos are often used as significant evidence for judicial forensics. However, the authenticity of surveillance videos is difficult to guarantee. Ascertaining the authenticity of surveillance video is an urgent problem. Inter-frame forgery is one of the most common ways for video tampering. The forgery will reduce the correlation between adjacent frames at tampering position. Therefore, the correlation can be used to detect tamper operation. The algorithm is composed of feature extraction and abnormal point localization. During feature extraction, we extract the 2-D phase congruency of each frame, since it is a good image characteristic. Then calculate the correlation between the adjacent frames. In the second phase, the abnormal points were detected by using k-means clustering algorithm. The normal and abnormal points were clustered into two categories. Experimental results demonstrate that the scheme has high detection and localization accuracy.
The traditional watershed algorithm has the disadvantage of over-segmentation and interference with an image by reflected light. We propose an improved watershed color image segmentation algorithm. It is based on a morphological gradient. This method obtains the component gradient of a color image in a new color space is not disturbed by the reflected light. The gradient image is reconstructed by opening and closing. Therefore, the final gradient image is obtained. The maximum inter-class variance algorithm is used to obtain the threshold automatically for the final gradient image. The original gradient image is forcibly calibrated with the obtained binary labeled image, and the modified gradient image is segmented by watershed. Experimental results show that the proposed method can obtain an accurate and continuous target contour. It will achieve the minimum number of segmentation regions following human vision. Compared with similar algorithms, this way can suppress the meaningless area generated by the reflected light. It will maintain the edge information of the object well. It will improve the robustness and applicability. From the experimental results, it can be seen that compared with the region-growing method and the automatic threshold method; the proposed algorithm has a great improvement in operation efficiency, which increased by 10%. The accuracy and recall rate of the proposed algorithm is more than 0.98. Through the experimental comparison, the advantages of the proposed algorithm in object segmentation can be more intuitively illustrated.
Video splicing forgery is a common object-based intra-frame forgery operation. It refers to copying some regions, usually moving foreground objects, from one video to another. The splicing video usually contains two different modes of camera sensor pattern noise (SPN). Therefore, the SPN, which is called a camera fingerprint, can be used to detect video splicing operations. The paper proposes a video splicing detection and localization scheme based on SPN, which consists of detecting moving objects, estimating reference SPN, and calculating signed peak-to-correlation energy (SPCE). Firstly, foreground objects of the frame are extracted, and then, reference SPN are trained using frames without foreground objects. Finally, the SPCE is calculated at the block level to distinguish forged objects from normal objects. Experimental results demonstrate that the method can accurately locate the tampered area and has higher detection accuracy. In terms of accuracy and F1-score, our method achieves 0.914 and 0.912, respectively.
