A Survey of Threats Against Voice Authentication and Anti-Spoofing Systems

The paper reviews how voice authentication has evolved from handcrafted acoustic features to deep learning speaker embeddings, expanding its use in finance, smart devices, and law enforcement. It surveys modern threats—including data poisoning, adversarial, deepfake, and adversarial spoofing attacks—tracing their development alongside technological advances. For each attack type, the authors summarize methods, datasets, performance, and limitations, and organize the literature using accepted taxonomies to highlight emerging risks and open challenges.

Swin Meets EfficientNet: Lightweight Architectures for GAN-Based Face Forensics

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.

A Combined Feature-Based Framework for Disguise and Spoofing Detection in Face Recognition Systems

arXiv:2608. 08521v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Face recognition systems face two distinct, commonly-separated failure modes: spoofing, where an impostor presents a photograph or video of an authorized user, and disguise, where a legitimate user is rejected because their appearance differs from their enrolled template due to accessories, facial hair, illumination, or pose.
