Description
Summary:Surveillance systems are ubiquitous in our lives, and surveillance videos are often used as significant evidence for judicial forensics. However, the authenticity of surveillance videos is difficult to guarantee. Ascertaining the authenticity of surveillance video is an urgent problem. Inter-frame forgery is one of the most common ways for video tampering. The forgery will reduce the correlation between adjacent frames at tampering position. Therefore, the correlation can be used to detect tamper operation. The algorithm is composed of feature extraction and abnormal point localization. During feature extraction, we extract the 2-D phase congruency of each frame, since it is a good image characteristic. Then calculate the correlation between the adjacent frames. In the second phase, the abnormal points were detected by using <i>k</i>-means clustering algorithm. The normal and abnormal points were clustered into two categories. Experimental results demonstrate that the scheme has high detection and localization accuracy.
