Objectives and Motivation

The digital image plays a important role in various fields like information forensic, journalism, criminal and forensic investigations, medical fields etc…Because of the widespread availability and popularity of photo editing tools and software it become easy to modify the images but such modified images become problematic in some areas where the geniuses of image has a prime important and in such fields it become extremely difficult to verify the authenticity and integrity of digital images. Modern software has made the manipulation of photos easier to carry out and harder to uncover than ever before. Therefore there feel a need to find out a forensic technique which will be capable to detect the tampering in modified digital images and to verify images authenticity. The application of the forensic methods for detecting globally and locally applied contrast enhancement, cut-and-paste forgery, histogram equalization, and noise in the digital image.

Scope and Interests

Digital image forensics is a term that is used in different contexts with slightly different meanings. In the academic community it is often used as a term to indicate the analysis of the authenticity of an image file, evaluate the presence of forgeries, and determine the device which has produced the picture. In the law enforcement and forensics world, it's intended in a wider manner and it's intended as a full range investigation, both on the authenticity of the image and the analysis of its content. Forensic Image Analysis is the application of image science and domain expertise to interpret the content of an image and/or the image itself in legal matters. Major subdisciplines of Forensic Image Analysis with law enforcement applications include: Photogrammetry, Photographic Comparison, Content Analysis, and Image Authentication.
