The proposed paper aims to combat deep learning-based facial manipulation by introducing a novel universal framework called ID-Guard. This framework utilizes an encoder-decoder network to generate cross-model universal adversarial perturbations that disrupt the manipulation process while ensuring anonymity in manipulated images. A key innovation is the introduction of an Identity Destruction Module (IDM) that targets identifiable information in forged faces. The framework also employs a dynamic weights strategy for multi-task learning, optimizing perturbation production across different facial manipulations. Experimental results demonstrate impressive defense capabilities against multiple widely used facial manipulation techniques, effectively distorting identifiable regions in manipulated images and preventing face inpaintings and open-source image recognition systems from recognizing the distorted identities.

The paper proposes a new way to stop people from using fake faces on social media or online. They came up with a special kind of noise that can be added to images to make them look fake. This is done by creating a special module that destroys any identifying information in the image, so even if someone tries to recognize the face, they won’t be able to. The researchers tested their method on different types of fake faces and found it worked really well.
