Document Presentation Attack is an anti-forensic operation that conceals the forgery traces of image manipulation in the digital domain. Existing document presentation attack detection (DPAD) methods show unsatisfactory performance under samples with different contents and qualities. In this work, we focus on the DPAD task on screen-recapturing channel and exploit the prior knowledge of distortion (i.e., moire pattern) in the spectral domain to address these limitations. We propose a frequency-domain moir ´ e´ augmentation (FMAG) strategy that enhances the spectral components contributed to the moire distortion, improving the generalization ´ performance under different document contents. We devise the mask moire frequency modeling (M ´ 2FM) scheme to reconstruct the moire-related spectral components in low-quality samples under the guidance of the spectral distortion model and a pre-trained DPAD ´ classifier. To evaluate the generalization performance, we collect the diverse Screen Recaptured Document Image Dataset with 162 different document contents (SRDID162) consisting of 162 genuine document images, as well as 2592 low and high-quality recaptured document images, respectively. Our experimental protocol involves training with high-quality ID images and testing with SRDID162 dataset of diverse contents and image qualities. Compared to a SOTA data augmentation approach for recaptured natural images, our FMAG & M2FM approach achieves a significant improvement of 49.15% or 22.50 percentage points in average EER on the generic deep learning backbones. The data and code of this work will be available at Github

Document recapturing is a presentation attack that covers the forensic traces in the digital domain. Document presentation attack detection (DPAD) is an important step in the document authentication pipeline. Existing DPAD methods suffer from low generalization performance under the cross-domain scenario with different types of documents. Data augmentation is a de facto technique to reduce the risk of overfitting the training data and improve the generalizability of a trained model. In this work, we improve the generalization performance of DPAD approaches by addressing two important limitations of the existing frequency domain augmentation (FDA) methods. First, contrary to the existing FDA methods that treat different spectral bands equally, we establish a band-of-interest localization (BOIL) method that locates the spectral band-of-interest (BOI) related to the recapturing operation by domain knowledge from the theoretical distortion models. Second, we propose a frequency-domain halftoning augmentation (FHAG) strategy that enhances the halftoning features in the BOI with considerations of different halftoning distortions. To evaluate the generalization performance of our FHAG with BOIL method on different types of document images, we have constructed a diverse recaptured document image dataset with 162 types of documents (RDID162), consisting of 5346 samples. The proposed method has been evaluated on the generic deep learning models and a state-of-the-art DPAD approach under both cross-device and cross-domain protocols for the DPAD task. Compared to the existing FDA methods, our method has improved the models with ResNet50 backbone by reducing more than 25% or 5 percentage points in EERs.
