Summary: 
The release of image processing techniques make image modification and fakery easier. Image fakery, here, is defined as a process to copy a region of source image and paste it onto the destination image, with some post processing methods applied, such as boundary smoothing, blurring, etc. to make it natural. The most important characteristic of image fakery is object copy and paste. In order to detect fake images, this letter introduces a blind detection scheme based on singular value decomposition (SVD). Experimental results also show the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.
