Great attention is paid to detecting video forgeries nowadays, especially with the widespread sharing of videos over social media and websites. Many video editing software programs are available and perform well in tampering with video contents or even creating fake videos. Forgery affects video integrity and authenticity and has serious implications. For example, digital videos for security and surveillance purposes are used as evidence in courts. In this paper, a newly developed passive video forgery scheme is introduced and discussed. The developed scheme is based on representing highly correlated video data with a low computational complexity third-order tensor tube-fiber mode. An arbitrary number of core tensors is selected to detect and locate two serious types of forgeries which are: insertion and deletion. These tensor data are orthogonally transformed to achieve more data reductions and to provide good features to trace forgery along the whole video. Experimental results and comparisons show the superiority of the proposed scheme with a precision value of up to 99% in detecting and locating both types of attacks for static as well as dynamic videos, quick-moving foreground items (single or multiple), zooming in and zooming out datasets which are rarely tested by previous works. Moreover, the proposed scheme offers a reduction in time and a linear computational complexity. Based on the used computer’s configurations, an average time of 35 s. is needed to detect and locate 40 forged frames out of 300 frames.

In recent years, underwater exploration for deep-sea resource utilization and development has a considerable interest. In an underwater environment, the obtained images and videos undergo several types of quality degradation resulting from light absorption and scattering, low contrast, color deviation, blurred details, and nonuniform illumination. Therefore, the restoration and enhancement of degraded images and videos are critical. Numerous techniques of image processing, pattern recognition and computer vision have been proposed for image restoration and enhancement, but many challenges remain. This survey presents a comparison of the most prominent approaches in underwater image processing and analysis. It also discusses an overview of the underwater environment with a broad classification into enhancement and restoration techniques and introduces the main underwater image degradation reasons in addition to the underwater image model. The existing underwater image analysis techniques, methods, datasets, and evaluation metrics are presented in detail. Furthermore, the existing limitations are analyzed, which are classified into image-related and environment-related categories. In addition, the performance is validated on images from the UIEB dataset for qualitative, quantitative, and computational time assessment. Areas in which underwater images have recently been applied are briefly discussed. Finally, recommendations for future research are provided and the conclusion is presented.
