Image Forgery Detection with Interpretability
share
In this work, we present a learning based method focusing on the convolutional neural network (CNN) architecture to detect these forgeries. We consider the detection of both copy-move forgeries and inpainting based forgeries. For these, we synthesize our own large dataset. In addition to classification, the focus is also on interpretability of the forgery detection. As the CNN classification yields the image-level label, it is important to understand if forged region has indeed contributed to the classification. For this purpose, we demonstrate using the Grad-CAM heatmap, that in various correctly classified examples, that the forged region is indeed the region contributing to the classification. Interestingly, this is also applicable for small forged regions, as is depicted in our results. Such an analysis can also help in establishing the reliability of the classification.
