Manipulation and re-use of images in scientific publications is a concerning problem that currently lacks a scalable solution. Current tools for detecting image duplication are mostly manual or semi-automated, despite the availability of an…
Near- and duplicate image detection is a critical concern in the field of medical imaging. Medical datasets often contain similar or duplicate images from various sources, which can lead to significant performance issues and evaluation…
We propose BioTamperNet, a novel framework for detecting duplicated regions in tampered biomedical images, leveraging affinity-guided attention inspired by State Space Model (SSM) approximations. Existing forensic models, primarily trained…
The key challenge of image manipulation detection is how to learn generalizable features that are sensitive to manipulations in novel data, whilst specific to prevent false alarms on authentic images. Current research emphasizes the…
Research in media forensics has gained traction to combat the spread of misinformation. However, most of this research has been directed towards content generated on social media. Biomedical image forensics is a related problem, where…
The scientific image integrity area presents a challenging research bottleneck, the lack of available datasets to design and evaluate forensic techniques. Its data sensitivity creates a legal hurdle that prevents one to rely on real…
Copy-move image forgery aims to duplicate certain objects or to hide specific contents with copy-move operations, which can be achieved by a sequence of manual manipulations as well as up-to-date deep generative network-based swapping. Its…
Adherence to scientific community standards ensures objectivity, clarity, reproducibility, and helps prevent bias, fabrication, falsification, and plagiarism. To help scientific integrity officers and journal/publisher reviewers monitor if…
The growing diversity of digital face manipulation techniques has led to an urgent need for a universal and robust detection technology to mitigate the risks posed by malicious forgeries. We present a blended-based detection approach that…
Digital image forensics aims to detect images that have been digitally manipulated. Realistic image forgeries involve a combination of splicing, resampling, region removal, smoothing and other manipulation methods. While most detection…
Advanced manipulation techniques have provided criminals with opportunities to make social panic or gain illicit profits through the generation of deceptive media, such as forged face images. In response, various deepfake detection methods…
As manipulating images by copy-move, splicing and/or inpainting may lead to misinterpretation of the visual content, detecting these sorts of manipulations is crucial for media forensics. Given the variety of possible attacks on the…
With the rapid advances of image editing techniques in recent years, image manipulation detection has attracted considerable attention since the increasing security risks posed by tampered images. To address these challenges, a novel…
In medicine, visualizing chromosomes is important for medical diagnostics, drug development, and biomedical research. Unfortunately, chromosomes often overlap and it is necessary to identify and distinguish between the overlapping…
This work demonstrates a multi-lens microscopic imaging system that overlaps multiple independent fields of view on a single sensor for high-efficiency automated specimen analysis. Automatic detection, classification and counting of various…
Medical imaging is an invaluable resource in medicine as it enables to peer inside the human body and provides scientists and physicians with a wealth of information indispensable for understanding, modelling, diagnosis, and treatment of…
Image manipulation detection algorithms designed to identify local anomalies often rely on the manipulated regions being ``sufficiently'' different from the rest of the non-tampered regions in the image. However, such anomalies might not be…
Manual preparation of tissue slices for microscopy imaging can introduce tissue tears and overlaps. Typically, further digital processing algorithms such as registration and 3D reconstruction from tissue image stacks cannot handle images…
With increasing revelations of academic fraud, detecting forged experimental images in the biomedical field has become a public concern. The challenge lies in the fact that copy-move targets can include background tissue, small foreground…
The digital images from various sources are ubiquitous due to easy availability of high bandwidth Internet. Digital images are easy to tamper with good or bad intentions. Non-availability of pre-embedded information in digital images makes…
