PairCLIP-SWA: Similarity-Guided Balancing and Stochastic Weight Averaging for Generalized Deepfake Image Detection with OpenCLIP

Read the original on arXiv AI →

PairCLIP‑SWA is a single‑backbone deepfake detector that fine‑tunes an OpenCLIP ViT‑L/14 visual tower using a class‑balanced corpus created by CLIP‑similarity‑guided subsampling and then applies stochastic weight averaging over the fine‑tuning trajectory. Trained on the IEEE SP Cup 2025 (DF‑Wild‑Cup) benchmark, the weight‑averaged model achieves 97.04 % accuracy, 98.64 % AU‑ROC and a 4.07 % equal error rate—outperforming the best published three‑backbone ensemble. The study shows that averaging stabilizes validation performance, prevents misranking on disjoint test sets, and that CLIP pre‑training, rather than ensembling, is the key driver of accuracy.

DS@GT ARC at ImageCLEFmedical 2026: Architectural Diversity for Concept Detection and Foundation-Model Scaling for Caption Prediction in Medical Image Analysis

arXiv:2607. 27763v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We describe the DS@GT submissions to the ImageCLEFmedical Caption 2026 challenge, which continues a long-running benchmark on the ROCOv2 dataset with two tracks: Concept Detection (Task 1), assigning UMLS Concept Unique Identifiers (CUIs) to radiology images, and Caption Prediction (Task 2), generating natural-language captions.

DS@GT ARC at ImageCLEFmedical 2026: Architectural Diversity for Concept Detection and Foundation-Model Scaling for Caption Prediction in Medical Image Analysis

We describe the DS@GT submissions to the ImageCLEFmedical Caption 2026 challenge, which continues a long-running benchmark on the ROCOv2 dataset with two tracks: Concept Detection (Task 1), assigning UMLS Concept Unique Identifiers (CUIs) to radiology images, and Caption Prediction (Task 2), generating natural-language captions. For Task 1, our primary submission was a three-way late-fusion ensemble of ConvNeXt-V2, BiomedCLIP ViT-B/16, and DenseNet-169 with a regularized ''Honest Threshold Tuning'' procedure designed to avoid validation overfitting on rare concepts; this submission ranked first on the official submission with a primary $F_1$ of $0.

How well are open sourced AI-generated image detection models out-of-the-box: A comprehensive benchmark study

The study evaluates 16 AI‑generated image detection methods in a zero‑shot setting, testing 23 pretrained variants on 12 datasets with 2.6 million images from 291 generators. Results show no single detector consistently outperforms others, with accuracy ranging from 37.5 % to 75.0 %. The study highlights that training data alignment and generator type significantly affect performance, especially against modern commercial models, and identifies systematic failure patterns across datasets.
