Spectra is a deepfake detection framework that uses implicit neural representations (INRs) to analyze how an image is reconstructed, producing multi-level reconstruction heatmaps. These heatmaps are fused with semantic visual features via a bidirectional mechanism, enabling the model to detect forgery cues that are less tied to specific generation pipelines. Experiments on several deepfake benchmarks show that Spectra outperforms detectors relying only on RGB appearance or semantic representations, and it also extends to face presentation attack detection.

The paper introduces MoE-JEPA, a dual‑stream deepfake detection model that combines a V‑JEPA backbone with a Residual Mixture‑of‑Experts mechanism and a noise stream branch. It further incorporates a Gated Attention Multiple Instance Learning module to refine spatial semantic understanding. On the SID‑Set benchmark, MoE‑JEPA achieves a new state‑of‑the‑art accuracy of 95.54%, outperforming much larger models.

The paper proposes Artifact-Complementary Expert Fusion (ACEF), a two‑stage framework that enhances AI‑generated image detection by combining two types of reconstruction artifacts—VAE/DDIM and SRGAN—into aligned synthetic negatives. ACEF first builds artifact‑specific experts using LoRA adaptation on a frozen backbone, then fuses their multi‑layer evidence with Layer‑wise Artifact‑Complementary Fusion (LACF) to mitigate conflicts between artifact manifolds. Experiments on 13 benchmarks show that this approach improves generalizability over existing state‑of‑the‑art methods.
