	%X Duplicated region detection is a technical method to
expose copy-paste forgeries on digital images. Copy-paste is one
of the common types of forgeries to clone portion of an image
in order to conceal or duplicate special object. In this type of
forgery detection, extracting robust block feature and also high
time complexity of matching step are two main open problems.
This paper concentrates on computational time and proposes a local
block matching algorithm based on block clustering to enhance time
complexity. Time complexity of the proposed algorithm is formulated
and effects of two parameter, block size and number of cluster, on
efficiency of this algorithm are considered. The experimental results
and mathematical analysis demonstrate this algorithm is more costeffective
than lexicographically algorithms in time complexity issue
when the image is complex.
