| contents | Splice detection models are the need of the hour since splice manipulations can be used to mislead, spread rumors and create disharmony in society. However, there is a severe lack of image splicing datasets, which restricts the capabilities of deep learning models to extract discriminative features without overfitting. This manuscript presents two-fold contributions toward splice detection. Firstly, a novel splice detection dataset is proposed having two variants. The two variants include spliced samples generated from code and through manual editing. Spliced images in both variants have corresponding binary masks to aid localization approaches. Secondly, a novel Spatio-Compression Lightweight Splice Detection Framework is proposed for accurate splice detection with minimum computational cost. The proposed dual-branch framework extracts discriminative spatial features from a lightweight spatial branch. It uses original resolution compression data to extract double compression artifacts from the second branch, thereby making it 'information preserving.' Several CNNs are tested in combination with the proposed framework on a composite dataset of images from the proposed dataset and the CASIA v2.0 dataset. The best model accuracy of 0.9382 is achieved and compared with similar state-of-the-art methods, demonstrating the superiority of the proposed framework. |
