Abstract

This study presents an artificial intelligence (AI)–powered framework integrating advanced image morphing and robust watermarking techniques for effective threat attribution in digital media. Leveraging the widely recognized CASIA Image Tampering Detection Evaluation Dataset v2.0, which contains over 12,000 authentic and tampered images, our approach uses a novel hybrid DeepMorph-WaterNet model combining convolutional autoencoders with a resilient spread-spectrum watermarking scheme. The method ensures imperceptible morphing while embedding traceable watermarks resistant to common attacks such as JPEG compression, cropping, and geometric transformations. Performance evaluation using peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR), Structural Similarity Index Measure (SSIM), and bit error rate reveals an average PSNR of 38.6 dB, SSIM of 0.97, and a watermark robustness of 98.4% accuracy under multiple adversarial conditions. These results demonstrate superior fidelity and attribution reliability compared to baseline ...
