FORGE is a forensic deepfake analysis system that provides region‑grounded natural language explanations for image manipulations. It addresses the inductive bias mismatch of multimodal large language models by adding a Vision‑Only Model trained on dense patch prediction, allowing the language model to interleave tokens with preserved spatial correspondence. Across face‑manipulated and fully synthetic content, FORGE delivers fine‑grained attribute queries and outperforms in‑domain baselines, with region‑specific evaluation and human studies confirming explanation faithfulness.

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.
