Seam carving is a method of resizing images based on content awareness. It can realize image retargeting while retaining the main content of the image. However, it may also be maliciously used to tamper with images, such as changing image semantic content by object removal. Therefore, seam carving detection has become important in image forensics. In this paper, a noise residual-based deep learning method is proposed to detect seam carving images. We try to learn the local noise in-consistency of images to recognize them. Firstly, a noise residual extraction segment is used to learn local noise features in the image, and a noise augmentation module is designed to enrich the features, which leverages the noise features extracted from a steganalysis rich model filter to discover the noise in-consistency between authentic and tampered regions. Then, through the feature dimensionality reduction section, the …
