Deep Learning Models in Video Deepfake Detection
The increasing use of deep learning techniques to manipulate images and videos, commonly referred to as “deepfakes”, is making it more challenging to differentiate between real and fake content, while various deepfake detection systems have been developed, they often struggle to detect deepfakes in real-world situations. In particular, these methods are often unable to effectively distinguish images or videos when these are modified using novel techniques which have not been used in the training set.
