Towards a satellite image manipulation and deepfake localization benchmark dataset

Verifying the authenticity of satellite imagery has become increasingly critical given advances in generative artificial intelligence. Highly realistic synthetic imagery produced for malicious purposes (deepfakes) can have major consequences in the remote sensing domain, where this data is a fundamental source of information for science applications, planning, logistics, and monitoring.

From Detection to Localization: A Unified Forensics Framework for Fully Synthetic and Tampered Images

The paper proposes a unified forensics framework that extends traditional binary image manipulation detection to a multiclass setting—distinguishing real, fully synthetic, and tampered images. It adds a segmentation branch for pixel‑level localization of tampered regions, achieving higher classification accuracy and IoU scores compared to recent benchmarks. The authors provide the implementation on GitHub for reproducibility.

ManiVid: Unified and Explainable Forensic Analysis of Manipulated Videos

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.

FUSED: Forensic-Semantic Mixture-of-Experts for AI Inpainting Detection and Localization

FUSED is a new framework that jointly detects and localizes AI-generated inpainting by combining low-level forensic cues with high-level semantic features through a sparsely-gated Mixture-of-Experts architecture. It predicts both an image-level manipulation score and a pixel-level mask of the inpainted region. On the OpenSDID cross-generator benchmark, FUSED outperforms existing methods, especially on unseen generators, and transfers effectively to the AutoSplice and CocoGlide benchmarks, doubling localization performance.

Copy-Move Forgery Detection and Question Answering for Remote Sensing Image

The paper introduces the Remote Sensing Copy-Move Question Answering (RSCMQA) task, aimed at interpreting complex tampering scenarios in land resource monitoring and national defense. It presents five datasets—RS-CMQA, RS-CMQA-B, Real-RSCM, RS-TQA, and RS-TQA-B—spanning 29 regions in 14 countries, and a region-discrimination-guided multimodal copy-move forgery perception framework (CMFPF) that improves question answering accuracy on tampered images. Experiments show CMFPF outperforms general VQA and RSVQA models, establishing a new benchmark for RSCMQA.
