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.
