DF2023 is a dataset for image forgery detection and localization. The training and validation datasets contain 1,000,000/5,000 manipulated images (and the ground truth masks).

The DF2023 training dataset comprises:

• 100K forged images produced by removal (inpainting) operations
• 200K images produced by enhancement modifications
• 300K copy-move manipulated images and
• 400K spliced images

=== Naming convention ===

The naming convention of DF2023 encodes information about the applied manipulations. Each image name has the following form:

COCO_DF_0123456789_NNNNNNNN.{EXT} (e.g. COCO_DF_E000G40117_00200620.jpg)

After the identifier of the image data source ("COCO") and the self-reference to the Digital Forensics ("DF") dataset, there are 10 digits as placeholders for the manipulation. Position 0 defines the manipulation types copy-move, splicing, removal, enhancement ([C,S,R,E]). The following digits 1-9 represent donor patch manipulations. For positions [1,2,7,8] (resample, flip, noise and brightness), a binary value indicates if this manipulation was applied to the donor image patch. Position 3 (rotate) indicates by the values 0-3 if the rotation was executed by 0, 90, 180 or 270 degrees. Position 4 defines if BoxBlur (B) or GaussianBlur (G) was used. Position 5 specifies the blurring radius. A value of 0 indicates that no blurring was executed. Position 6 indicates which of the Python-PIL contrast filters EDGE ENHANCE, EDGE ENHANCE MORE, SHARPEN, UnsharpMask or ImageEnhance (values 1-5) was applied. If none of them was applied, this value is set to 0. Finally, position 9 is set to the JPEG compression factor modulo 10, a value of 0 indicates that no JPEG compression was applied. The 8 characters NNNNNNNN in the image name template stand for a running number of the images.

=== Terms of Use / Licence ===

The DF2023 dataset is based on the MS COCO dataset. Therefore, rules for using the images form MS COCO apply also for DF2023:
