Recently, anchor-based methods have achieved great progress in face detection. They adopt standard anchor matching strategy to sample positive anchors according to predefined IoU threshold. However, the max IoUs of extreme aspect ratio faces are still lower than fixed positive threshold, leading to the sampling failure from these faces. To construc...

The unprecedented growth in the easy availability of photo-editing tools has endangered the power of digital images. An image was supposed to be worth more than a thousand words, but now this can be said only if it can be authenticated or the integrity of the image can be proved to be intact. In this paper, we propose a digital image forensic techn...
