Hide and Seek (HnS) is a concept‑level attribution method that interprets black‑box vision models without needing model weights or labeled concept datasets. It retrieves concept‑aligned images via a vision‑language model, localizes and masks the concept region, and measures attribution by observing changes in the model’s output. HnS was validated on CelebA and COCO‑Stuff, showing stronger agreement with ground‑truth attributions than existing methods, and was applied to tasks like image captioning and satellite image segmentation where other concept attribution methods fail.
arXiv:2606. 23872v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: As generative models increasingly produce samples that are indistinguishable from human-created content, it becomes difficult to determine whether a given data point was part of a model's natural training set or was generated by the model itself, especially when models memorize and reproduce training data.
arXiv:2608. 00716v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Robust detection of generated images is critical to counter the misuse of generative models.
arXiv:2607. 16283v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The rapid advancement of generative AI has outpaced our ability to reliably detect its outputs, particularly when detectors encounter generators they have not seen before.
arXiv:2607. 06254v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deepfake image detection is currently served by three fundamentally different paradigms: commercial APIs, zero-shot vision-language models (LLMs), and open-source detectors.
arXiv:2604. 17376v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In today's day and age, we face a challenge in detecting deepfake images because of the fast evolution of modern generative models and the poor generalization capability of existing methods.
MIG‑COW is a new adversarial attack framework that uses momentum‑integrated gradients and a consensus‑orthogonal decomposition to create highly generalizable, visually imperceptible perturbations against deepfake detectors. It achieves a 99.96% white‑box attack success rate on the AADD‑2025 Challenge benchmarks while maintaining high perceptual similarity (SSIM). In black‑box settings, its success rate drops to 7.16%, and adding low‑performing but diverse models to the ensemble can reduce attack effectiveness, highlighting the importance of careful surrogate model selection.
The paper introduces a multi‑view, confusion‑guided ensemble framework for synthetic image attribution, combining FFT‑ConvNeXt, DINOv2, CLIP, and Xception to capture frequency, semantic, and forensic cues. Extensive data augmentation simulates realistic post‑processing, while a binary expert classifier and class‑adaptive confidence calibration address ambiguities between similar diffusion models. The approach achieved 99.53% on the public leaderboard and 99.20% on the private leaderboard for the ICANN 2026 DLMMDD Workshop challenge.
