Embodiments of the invention are directed toward methods for an effective blind, passive, splicing/tampering detection. The methods of the various embodiments of the invention use a natural image model to detect image splicing/tampering with a model that is based on statistical features extracted from a given test image and multiple 2-D arrays generated by applying the block discrete cosine transform (BDCT) with several different block-sizes to the test images. Experimental results have demonstrated that the new splicing detection scheme outperforms state-of-the-art methods by a significant margin when applied to the Columbia Image Splicing Detection Evaluation Dataset.
