The shutter strategy applied to the photo-shooting process has a significant influence on the quality of the captured photograph. An improper shutter may lead to a blurry image, video discontinuity, or rolling shutter artifact. Existing…
This paper proposes a novel method for tamper detection and recovery using semi-fragile data hiding, based on Lifting Wavelet Transform (LWT) and Feed-Forward Neural Network (FNN). In TRLF, first, the host image is decomposed up to one…
Current approaches for restoration of degraded images face a trade-off: high-performance models are slow for practical use, while fast models produce poor results. Knowledge distillation transfers teacher knowledge to students, but existing…
In this paper, a new reversible image authentication technique with tamper localization based on watermarking in integer wavelet transform is proposed. If the image authenticity is verified, then the distortion due to embedding the…
In this paper, we introduce a new perspective for improving image restoration by removing degradation in the textual representations of a given degraded image. Intuitively, restoration is much easier on text modality than image one. For…
Existing localization methods that intensively leverage the environment-specific received signal strength (RSS) or channel state information (CSI) of wireless signals are rather accurate in certain environments. However, these methods,…
The visual camera is an attractive device in beyond visual line of sight (B-VLOS) drone operation, since they are low in size, weight, power, and cost, and can provide redundant modality to GPS failures. However, state-of-the-art visual…
The principal rank-one (RO) components of an image represent the self-similarity of the image, which is an important property for image restoration. However, the RO components of a corrupted image could be decimated by the procedure of…
Image restoration aims to recover high-quality (HQ) images from degraded low-quality (LQ) ones by reversing the effects of degradation. Existing generative models for image restoration, including diffusion and score-based models, often…
Image forgery localization is a very active and open research field for the difficulty to handle the large variety of manipulations a malicious user can perform by means of more and more sophisticated image editing tools. Here, we propose a…
Geolocating precise locations from images presents a challenging problem in computer vision and information retrieval.Traditional methods typically employ either classification, which dividing the Earth surface into grid cells and…
Most existing image restoration methods use neural networks to learn strong image-level priors from huge data to estimate the lost information. However, these works still struggle in cases when images have severe information deficits.…
Image copy-move is an operation that replaces one part of the image with another part of the same image, which can be used for illegal purposes due to the potential semantic changes. Recent studies have shown that keypoint-based algorithms…
Deep models have been widely and successfully used in image manipulation detection, which aims to classify tampered images and localize tampered regions. Most existing methods mainly focus on extracting global features from tampered images,…
Image forgery localization aims to precisely identify tampered regions within images, but it commonly depends on costly pixel-level annotations. To alleviate this annotation burden, weakly supervised image forgery localization (WSIFL) has…
Image forgery localization, which aims to segment tampered regions in an image, is a fundamental yet challenging digital forensic task. While some deep learning-based forensic methods have achieved impressive results, they directly learn…
Rectified Flow text-to-image models surpass diffusion models in image quality and text alignment, but adapting ReFlow for real-image editing remains challenging. We propose a new real-image editing method for ReFlow by analyzing the…
This paper presents a new semi-fragile algorithm for image tamper detection and recovery, which is based on region attention and two-sided circular block dependency. This method categorizes the image blocks into three categories according…
The dominant paradigm in image retrieval systems today is to search large databases using global image features, and re-rank those initial results with local image feature matching techniques. This design, dubbed global-to-local, stems from…
Restoring and inpainting the visual memories that are present, but often impaired, in old photos remains an intriguing but unsolved research topic. Decades-old photos often suffer from severe and commingled degradation such as cracks,…
