Abstract: Image reconstruction is a very important research problem with respect to information security. Digital image reconstruction is a robust means by which the underlying images can be revealed and analyzed for any fraud. One of the principal problems in image forensics and security systems is determining if a particular image is authentic or not. This can be a crucial task when images are used as basic evidence to influence judgment like, for example, in a court of law. To carry out such forensic analysis, various technological instruments have been developed in the literature. In this paper the problem of detecting if an image has been forged is investigated. To detect such tampering, a novel methodology based on image reconstruction is proposed. Such a method allows understanding with high reliability whether an attack has occurred.
