Abstract

With the advancement of Artificial Intelligence, facial recognition has become a crucial biometric feature. Deepfake technology leverages AI and can create hyper-realistic digitally manipulated videos of people appearing to say or do things that never occurred. The emergence of Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) has further enabled the creation of fake visual content with astonishing realism. This technology has diverse applications, such as in the film industry, where it allows for video recreation without reshooting, creating awareness videos, restoring the voices of those who have lost them, and updating movie scenes at low cost. However, this rapid advancement also presents significant challenges. The proliferation of synthetic images raises severe concerns about their societal impact, particularly in terms of potential misuse for harassment and blackmail. Therefore, developing robust deepfake detection models is imperative. This study evaluates the performance of a proposed ResNet34 model in deepfake detection. We utilize the FaceForensics++ dataset to train and assess the model, incorporating images generated by four popular deepfake techniques. Our experimental results demonstrate that integrating linear ternary patterns (LTP) and edge detection-based features with the modified ResNet34 model achieves superior performance, attaining 97.5% accuracy and surpassing other approaches.
