The paper proposes a guided and multi-scale feature aggregated network for Image Forgery Localization (IFL), which detects and locates forged areas in an image. The existing IFL methods suffer from feature degradation during training using multi-layer convolutions or self-attention mechanisms, leading to poor performance in detecting small forged regions and robustness against post-processing. To address these limitations, the proposed network incorporates a noise extraction module that learns noise features under different types of forgery in a guided way. The Feature Aggregation Module (FAM) uses dynamic convolution to adaptively aggregate RGB and noise features over multiple scales, while the Atrous Residual Pyramid Module (ARPM) enhances feature representation by capturing both global and local features using different receptive fields. Experimental results on 5 public datasets demonstrate that the proposed model outperforms several state-of-the-art methods, particularly in detecting small region forged images.

The paper is about a new way to detect fake parts in pictures. Right now, there are problems with current methods because they get worse when used multiple times or try to focus on certain areas. The new method uses different techniques like noise detection and feature combination to make it better at finding small fake parts and being robust against changes. The results show that this method is the best compared to other similar approaches.
