Face recognition systems store face templates for efficient matching. Once leaked, these templates pose a threat: inverting them can yield photorealistic surrogates that compromise privacy and enable impersonation. Although existing research has achieved relatively realistic face template inversion,
Extracting reliable generative traces in generated images is critical for AI-generated images (AIGIs) detection. However, a fundamental challenge exists: AIGIs inherently contain generative traces with no trace-free counterpart available, making supervised extraction of these artifacts infeasible. I
The proliferation of sophisticated deepfakes poses significant threats to information integrity. While DINOv2 shows promise for detection, existing fine-tuning approaches treat it as generic binary classification, overlooking distinct artifacts inherent to different deepfake methods. To address this
Attributing synthetic images to their source generative models is critical for digital forensics and security. While most existing attribution methods can distinguish images produced by known models and reject those from unknown ones, they are unable to verify whether a given image was produced by a
The rapid evolution of generative AI, from GANs to modern diffusion models, has resulted in increasingly subtle discriminative clues. These fine-grained signals are often overshadowed by dominant, high-fidelity image content (e.g., the main subject), limiting the reliability of existing detectors th…
Generative image steganography has attracted significant attention for its exceptional resistance to steganalysis. However, current generative steganography methods still face limitations in terms of the lack of provable security guarantees under statistical analysis and vulnerability to real-world,
Vector Quantization (VQ) is essential for discretizing continuous representations in unsupervised learning but suffers from representation collapse, causing low codebook utilization and limiting scalability. Existing solutions often rely on complex optimizations or reduce latent dimensionality, whic…
DeepFakes have become capable of producing highly realistic fabricated faces, posing significant threats to personal privacy and social security. The uncontrolled spread of such forged content, especially when influential figures are targeted, could lead to catastrophic consequences for society. Exi…
We introduce OmniMark, a novel and efficient fingerprinting method for Latent Diffusion Models (LDM). OmniMark can encode user-specific fingerprints across diverse dimensions of the weights of the LDM, including kernels, filters, channels, and spatial domains. The LDM is fine-tuned to encode the inv…
The commercialization of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) has led to a multi-level ecosystem involving model developers, service providers, and consumers. Thus, ensuring traceability is crucial, as service providers may violate intellectual property rights (IPR), and consumers may generate…
Developing robust and interpretable vision systems is a crucial step towards trustworthy artificial intelligence. One promising paradigm is to design transparent structures, e.g., geometric invariance, for fundamental representations. However, such invariants exhibit limited discriminability, limiti…
Current Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) have demonstrated remarkable capabilities in understanding multimodal data, but their potential remains underexplored for deepfake detection due to the misalignment of their knowledge and forensics patterns. To this end, we present a novel framework that…
In this work, we propose a novel method to improve the generalization ability of CNN-based face forgery detectors. Our method considers the feature anomalies of forged faces caused by the prevalent blending operations in face forgery algorithms. Specifically, we propose a weakly supervised Second Or…
