Fine-Grained Erasure in Text-to-Image Diffusion-based Foundation Models

CVPR 2025poster

Existing unlearning algorithms in text-to-image generative models often fail to preserve the knowledge of semantically related concepts when removing specific target concepts--a challenge known as adjacency. To address this, we propose FADE (Fine-grained Attenuation for Diffusion Erasure), introduci…

Harmonizing Geometry and Uncertainty: Diffusion with Hyperspheres

ICML 2025poster

Do contemporary diffusion models preserve the class geometry of hyperspherical data? Standard diffusion models rely on isotropic Gaussian noise in the forward process, inherently favoring Euclidean spaces. However, many real-world problems involve non-Euclidean distributions, such as hyperspherical…

ILLUSION: Unveiling Truth with a Comprehensive Multi-Modal, Multi-Lingual Deepfake Dataset

ICLR 2025poster

The proliferation of deepfakes and AI-generated content has led to a surge in media forgeries and misinformation, necessitating robust detection systems. However, current datasets lack diversity across modalities, languages, and real-world scenarios. To address this gap, we present ILLUSION (Integra…

HyperSpaceX: Radial and Angular Exploration of HyperSpherical Dimensions

ECCV 2024poster

"Traditional deep learning models rely on methods such as softmax cross-entropy and ArcFace loss for tasks like classification and face recognition. These methods mainly explore angular features in a hyperspherical space, often resulting in entangled inter-class features due to dense angular data ac…

ToonerGAN: Reinforcing GANs for Obfuscating Automated Facial Indexing

CVPR 2024poster

The rapid evolution of automatic facial indexing tech- nologies increases the risk of compromising personal and sensitive information. To address the issue we propose cre- ating cartoon avatars or 'toon avatars' designed to effec- tively obscure identity features. The primary objective is to deceive…

DF-Platter: Multi-Face Heterogeneous Deepfake Dataset

CVPR 2023poster

Deepfake detection is gaining significant importance in the research community. While most of the research efforts are focused around high-quality images and videos, deepfake generation algorithms today have the capability to generate low-resolution videos, occluded deepfakes, and multiple-subject d…
