| Medium | GrooveSquid.com (original content) | Medium Difficulty Summary A novel proactive deepfake detection approach is introduced in this paper, which utilizes changes in facial characteristics during manipulation as a detection mechanism. The Facial Feature-based Proactive deepfake detection method (FaceProtect) employs a GAN-based One-way Dynamic Watermark Generating Mechanism (GODWGM) that uses 128-dimensional facial feature vectors to create irreversible mappings from features to watermarks. This enhances protection against reverse inference attacks. A Watermark-based Verification Strategy (WVS) is also proposed, combining steganography with GODWGM for simultaneous transmission of the benchmark watermark within the image. Experimental results show that FaceProtect maintains exceptional detection performance and practicality on images altered by various deepfake techniques. |
| Low | GrooveSquid.com (original content) | Low Difficulty Summary This paper proposes a new way to detect fake faces in videos or photos. Instead of just looking at the face, it looks at how the face has changed during the creation of the fake image. This makes it harder for hackers to create fake images that can fool detection systems. The method uses a special kind of code, called a watermark, that is hidden in the image and can’t be removed. This way, even if someone tries to tamper with the image, the watermark will still be there, making it easier to detect. |
