MADBench: A Benchmark for Modality-Aware Audio Deepfake Detection

arXiv:2608. 09593v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent advances in speech synthesis and audio generation have made high-fidelity acoustic forgery low-cost and difficult to attribute, enabling a realistic attack scenario in which speech and background audio are independently manipulated over otherwise authentic video.

ToolDF: Tool-Integrated Reasoning for Mixed-Authenticity Audio Deepfake Detection

ToolDF is a tool‑integrated reasoning framework designed for detecting mixed‑authenticity audio deepfakes, where genuine and manipulated audio cues coexist across time or overlapping sources. It uses an audio large language model to orchestrate tasks such as source separation and routing to domain‑specific experts, aggregating their evidence into an interpretable verdict. The authors also introduce a mixed‑authenticity ADD benchmark and report that ToolDF outperforms monolithic baselines, achieving significant macro‑F1 gains while localizing evidence to specific temporal regions and acoustic sources.

A Training-Free Proactive Defense Against Partial Speech Manipulation via Self-Embedding Steganography

The paper introduces a training‑free proactive defense for detecting partial deepfake speech by using self‑embedding steganography. It embeds a compressed version of the clean audio within itself, allowing post‑hoc extraction of reference content and enabling detection of spoofed segments via codec‑based restoration. Experiments on a benchmark dataset show that this method complements passive detectors and operates without any training, offering a robust, data‑efficient alternative for partial deepfake detection.

Robust Workflow Generation via Adversarial Learning for Audio Deepfake Detection

The paper introduces ROGUE, a framework that builds robust audio deepfake detection workflows by combining multiple detection tools. ROGUE treats workflow creation as a sequential decision problem and uses a dual-agent system: a perturbation agent generates audio distortions while a policy agent selects and executes detection tools that are resilient to those perturbations. Experiments on several datasets and real-world corruptions show that ROGUE consistently outperforms strong baselines in robustness and generalization, demonstrating the value of adversarially optimized workflow generation for reliable deployment.
