Nowadays, full face synthesis and partial face manipulation by virtue of the generative adversarial networks (GANs) have raised wide public concerns. In the multi-media forensics area, detecting and ultimately locating the image forgery have become imperative. We investigated the architecture of existing GAN-based face manipulation methods and observed that the imperfection of upsampling methods therewithin could be served as an important asset for GAN-synthesized fake images detection and forgery localization. Based on this basic observation, we have proposed a novel approach to obtain high localization accuracy, at full resolution, on manipulated facial images. To the best of our knowledge, this is the very first attempt to solve the GAN-based fake localization problem with a gray-scale fakeness prediction map that preserves more information of fake regions. To improve the universality of FakeLocator across multifarious facial attributes, we introduce an attention mechanism to guide the training of the model. Experimental results on the CelebA and FFHQ databases with seven different state-of-the-art GAN-based face generation methods show the effectiveness of our method. Compared with the baseline, our method performs two times better on various metrics. Moreover, the proposed method is robust against various real-world facial image degradations such as JPEG compression, low-resolution, noise, and blur.
In this paper, we present a versatile method for visual localization. It is based on robust image retrieval for coarse camera pose estimation and robust local features for accurate pose refinement. Our method is top ranked on various public datasets
Fake face detection is a significant challenge for intelligent systems as generative models become more powerful every single day. As the quality of fake faces increases, the trained models become more and more inefficient to detect the novel fake fa
This work tackles the face recognition task on images captured using thermal camera sensors which can operate in the non-light environment. While it can greatly increase the scope and benefits of the current security surveillance systems, performing
Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) has spread all over the world since it broke out massively in December 2019, which has caused a large loss to the whole world. Both the confirmed cases and death cases have reached a relatively frightening number.
Last-generation GAN models allow to generate synthetic images which are visually indistinguishable from natural ones, raising the need to develop tools to distinguish fake and natural images thus contributing to preserve the trustworthiness of digita
