Exploring the Effectiveness of Machine Learning Algorithms in Image Forgery Detection

Abstract

This study investigates the efficacy of various machine learning algorithms for detecting image forgery, a prevalent issue in the realm of digital media manipulation. The research focuses on assessing the performance of these algorithms in accurately identifying instances of image tampering, aiming to contribute valuable insights to the field of digital forensics. The evaluation encompasses a diverse set of machine learning techniques, including but not limited to convolutional neural networks (CNNs), support vector machines (SVMs), and decision trees. Through rigorous experimentation and comparative analysis, the research aims to discern the strengths and limitations of each algorithm in the context of image forgery detection. The findings of this study hold significance for enhancing the capabilities of digital forensics tools, thereby aiding in the mitigation of fraudulent activities, and ensuring the integrity of visual content in the digital' domain.
