This work introduces SAFIRE, a framework that re-frames image forgery localization from binary segmentation into multi-source partitioning, aiming to identify distinct originating regions within a manipulated image. SAFIRE adapts a modified Segment Anything Model with a prompt-based approach, achieving leading performance on traditional binary forgery localization tasks and demonstrating the first capability to partition images into three or more distinct source regions.
Key insights
- Re-conceptualizing image forgery localization as a multi-source partitioning problem provides a more comprehensive and interpretable understanding of intricate image manipulations.
- Prompt-based foundation models, specifically SAM's point-prompting capability, can be effectively adapted to identify and segment specific source regions in manipulated images.
- Learning uniform characteristics within source regions, rather than attempting to memorize specific forgery traces, results in more stable and robust model performance in image forensics.
