Abstract

 Nowadays, image manipulation algorithms are increasingly being used even by people who do not have any deep knowledge of technology, and one can easily find an application to manipulate face image for various purposes. After the development of image processing algorithms, the research community highlighted the need to develop a technology that detects image manipulation, but it did not highlight the recovery of the facial region after manipulation localization, which would be very useful in practical applications. In this paper, a new face image modification detection and recovery scheme based on image watermarking and bicubic interpolation algorithm is presented. Several experiments were conducted to evaluate the performance of the proposed scheme, which proved its effectiveness in generating high-quality watermarked images, detecting different types of manipulation, localizing the manipulated blocks in the face region, and restoring the face region with good visual quality. A comparison with the latest detection techniques demonstrates the superiority of the proposed scheme.
