Abstract As Deepfake technology continues to evolve, the distinction between real and fake content becomes increasingly blurred. Most existing Deepfake video detection methods rely on single-frame facial image features, which limits their ability to capture temporal differences between frames. Current methods also exhibit limited generalization capabilities, struggling to detect content generated by unknown forgery algorithms. Moreover, the diversity and complexity of forgery techniques introduced by Artificial Intelligence Generated Content (AIGC) present significant challenges for traditional detection frameworks, which must balance high detection accuracy with robust performance. To address these challenges, we propose a novel Deepfake detection… More >

Abstract With the rapid growth of social media, the spread of fake news has become a growing problem, misleading the public and causing significant harm. As social media content is often composed of both images and text, the use of multimodal approaches for fake news detection has gained significant attention. To solve the problems existing in previous multi-modal fake news detection algorithms, such as insufficient feature extraction and insufficient use of semantic relations between modes, this paper proposes the MFFFND-Co (Multimodal Feature Fusion Fake News Detection with Co-Attention Block) model. First, the model deeply explores the More >

Abstract Social media has significantly accelerated the rapid dissemination of information, but it also boosts propagation of fake news, posing serious challenges to public awareness and social stability. In real-world contexts, the volume of trustable information far exceeds that of rumors, resulting in a class imbalance that leads models to prioritize the majority class during training. This focus diminishes the model’s ability to recognize minority class samples. Furthermore, models may experience overfitting when encountering these minority samples, further compromising their generalization capabilities. Unlike node-level classification tasks, fake news detection in social networks operates on graph-level samples,… More >

Abstract With the rapid advancement of visual generative models such as Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) and stable Diffusion, the creation of highly realistic Deepfake through automated forgery has significantly progressed. This paper examines the advancements in Deepfake detection and defense technologies, emphasizing the shift from passive detection methods to proactive digital watermarking techniques. Passive detection methods, which involve extracting features from images or videos to identify forgeries, encounter challenges such as poor performance against unknown manipulation techniques and susceptibility to counter-forensic tactics. In contrast, proactive digital watermarking techniques embed specific markers into images or videos, facilitating More >

Abstract Deepfake has emerged as an obstinate challenge in a world dominated by light. Here, the authors introduce a new deepfake detection method based on Xception architecture. The model is tested exhaustively with millions of frames and diverse video clips; accuracy levels as high as 99.65% are reported. These are the main reasons for such high efficacy: superior feature extraction capabilities and stable training mechanisms, such as early stopping, characterizing the Xception model. The methodology applied is also more advanced when it comes to data preprocessing steps, making use of state-of-the-art techniques applied to ensure constant… More >

Abstract In an era dominated by information dissemination through various channels like newspapers, social media, radio, and television, the surge in content production, especially on social platforms, has amplified the challenge of distinguishing between truthful and deceptive information. Fake news, a prevalent issue, particularly on social media, complicates the assessment of news credibility. The pervasive spread of fake news not only misleads the public but also erodes trust in legitimate news sources, creating confusion and polarizing opinions. As the volume of information grows, individuals increasingly struggle to discern credible content from false narratives, leading to widespread… More >

Abstract With the rapid spread of Internet information and the spread of fake news, the detection of fake news becomes more and more important. Traditional detection methods often rely on a single emotional or semantic feature to identify fake news, but these methods have limitations when dealing with news in specific domains. In order to solve the problem of weak feature correlation between data from different domains, a model for detecting fake news by integrating domain-specific emotional and semantic features is proposed. This method makes full use of the attention mechanism, grasps the correlation between different… More >

Abstract Reviews have a significant impact on online businesses. Nowadays, online consumers rely heavily on other people's reviews before purchasing a product, instead of looking at the product description. With the emergence of technology, malicious online actors are using techniques such as Natural Language Processing (NLP) and others to generate a large number of fake reviews to destroy their competitors’ markets. To remedy this situation, several researches have been conducted in the last few years. Most of them have applied NLP techniques to preprocess the text before building Machine Learning (ML) or Deep Learning (DL) models… More >

Abstract Social media has become increasingly significant in modern society, but it has also turned into a breeding ground for the propagation of misleading information, potentially causing a detrimental impact on public opinion and daily life. Compared to pure text content, multmodal content significantly increases the visibility and share ability of posts. This has made the search for efficient modality representations and cross-modal information interaction methods a key focus in the field of multimodal fake news detection. To effectively address the critical challenge of accurately detecting fake news on social media, this paper proposes a fake… More >
