Detection of Cloning in Digital Images

Abstract

Digital image manipulation has grown common place among individuals and professionals in recent years. As a result, in domains where digital photographs are used, establishing the authenticity of photos has become crucial. Separating the genuine camera outputs from their altered or fabricated counterparts is necessary for image authentication. One common method of altering images is digital picture cloning. In this paper, author has used the SURF and SIFT algorithm to identify the clone image.
