Abstract Most of the existing region duplication detection algorithms are not robust to the post processing and have high time complexity. Therefore, an efficient and robust algorithm is proposed for detecting and localizing malicious tampering. The dimension of image is firstly reduced by DWT, and the geometric moment is applied to the fixed sized overlapping blocks of low-frequency in wavelet sub-band. Then, the eigenvectors are lexicographically sorted. Finally, the experimental threshold value and mathematical morphology operations are performed to locate the tampered part. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm successfully detects the tampered image with various post region duplication image processing, including noise contamination and JPEG compression. Furthermore, the proposed algorithm reduces the total number of blocks to decrease time complexity.
