Copy-move detection of audio recording with pitch similarity

The widespread availability of audio editing software has made it very easy to create forgeries without perceptual trace. Copy-move is one of popular audio forgeries. It is very important to identify audio recording with duplicated segments. However, copy-move detection in digital audio with sample by sample comparison is invalid due to post-processing after forgeries. In this paper we present a method based on pitch similarity to detect copy-move forgeries. We use a robust pitch tracking method to extract the pitch of every syllable and calculate the similarities of these pitch sequences. Then we can use the similarities to detect copy-move forgeries of digital audio recording. Experimental result shows that our method is feasible and efficient.
