1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

JPEG artifacts produced during the JPEG compression may obscure forgery artifacts, impairing the efficiency of regular forgery detection and localization approaches. To address the issue, we introduce a Multi-Scale Contextual Spatial-Channel Correlation Network, which has been designed for detecting and locating forgeries. Our MSCSCC-Net uses multi-scale mechanisms, which improves forgery detection and localization performance by better handling the scale variation of the forged areas and further helps to remove JPEG artifacts from forgery artifacts at different scales. We design a contextual spatial correlation module (CSCM) and a contextual channel correlation module (CCCM) to generate contextual spatial-channel features at different scales, with the aim of distinguishing between JPEG artifacts, forgery artifacts, and authentic regions. Finally, use the fused features to detect forgery and generate a predicted mask in a coarse-to-fine progression. Besides, we also use the fused features to generate a restored image and make the removal of JPEG artifacts a task of our network, ensuring the retention of forgery artifacts during the removal process. Extensive experimental results demonstrate our MSCSCC Net's advantages over the most advanced approach in forgery detection and localization of JPEG compressed images.
