ASAP is an interactive visualization system that helps users identify and analyze deceptive patterns in AI‑generated images. It uses a CLIP‑adapted image encoder to produce interpretable representations and generates masks that highlight influential pixel regions, enabling influence measurement of key deceptive features. The system integrates these techniques into a dashboard for quantifying authenticity‑indicative patterns across collections of authentic and AI‑generated images, supporting comparative analysis of different generative models such as GANs and diffusion models, and its effectiveness is demonstrated through a user study and benchmark applications.

arXiv:2607. 22600v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Information visualizations are widely used to communicate patterns, trends, and outliers, yet deceptive design choices-such as truncated or inverted axes, distorted aspect ratios, inappropriate encodings, and misleading color mappings-can systematically alter interpretation while preserving the underlying data.

The paper presents lightweight architectures for detecting GAN-generated synthetic faces, comparing a compact Swin Transformer, pre‑trained Swin‑Tiny and Swin‑Small models, and a hybrid EfficientNet‑B0 + Swin Transformer. Using the 140K Real and Fake Faces dataset, the hybrid model achieved 99% accuracy and 99.44% recall on 5,000 test images, outperforming both pure Swin variants and a CNN‑only baseline. The study demonstrates that combining hierarchical CNN features with shifted‑window self‑attention yields an efficient, computationally lightweight detection method.
