Abstract

The broad accessibility of digital image editing tools has been resulted in a significant increase in image forgery, raising serious concerns about the authenticity of visual content. This paper presents a comprehensive comparison of various image forgery detection algorithms, including Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs)[3], Support Vector Machines (SVMs)[2], and Discrete Wavelet Transforms (DWTs)[1], each assessed for their efficiency in identifying manipulated regions. Additionally, we introduce a novel hybrid approach that combines Error Level Analysis (ELA)[22] and CNNs[11], achieving a remarkable efficiency rate of 95% in detecting tampering techniques such as splicing, copy-move & retouching.Our method is rigorously tested on benchmark datasets, demonstrating its superior performance and reliability. By offering insights into both traditional and advanced detection methods. This research advances the field digital image authentication, providing an effective solution for ensuring the integrity of digital imagery across various domains.
