The paper introduces Band-Attention Modulation Network (BAM‑Net), a face forgery detection framework that learns fine‑grained, adaptive modulation of frequency bands in the Discrete Cosine Transform spectrogram. BAM‑Net dynamically reweights anti‑diagonal frequency bands to enhance forgery‑related spectral cues while suppressing irrelevant information, then fuses this modulated frequency data with spatial features using a lightweight backbone with distance‑decayed attention. Experiments on FaceForensics++, Celeb‑DF, and DFDC show that BAM‑Net achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance and strong generalization across datasets, compression levels, and manipulation types.

ManiVid introduces a unified forensic analysis framework for manipulated videos, combining forgery detection, artifact grounding, and anomaly explanation. The authors release ManiVid-38K, a large dataset of 19K real‑fake video pairs with authenticity labels, forgery masks, and explanations, and a benchmark ManiVidBench with 1K balanced pairs. ManiVidLens, the proposed model, outperforms existing methods in artifact grounding and anomaly explanation while matching state‑of‑the‑art detection accuracy.
