Adaptive Gated Deepfake Detection for Low-Resolution and Resource-Constrained Environments

The paper introduces AdaGate-DF, an adaptive gated deepfake detection framework designed for low-resolution and resource-constrained environments. By leveraging image-quality cues, the system routes samples through a dual multi-exit architecture, allowing high-quality images to exit earlier and reduce computational load. Evaluations on Celeb-DF and FaceForensics++ show that AdaGate-DF outperforms existing models such as MaD-CoRN and DefakeHop++ while maintaining low inference latency and robust performance across varying resolutions and class imbalance scenarios.

OD3: Optimization-free Dataset Distillation for Object Detection

OD3 introduces an optimization‑free dataset distillation framework tailored for object detection. The method first iteratively places object instances in synthesized images, then screens candidates with a pre‑trained observer model to discard low‑confidence objects. Applied to MS COCO and PASCAL VOC, OD3 achieves compression ratios from 0.25% to 5% and surpasses previous detection‑focused distillation methods by over 14% on COCO mAP50 at a 1.0% compression ratio.
