Semantic Discrepancy-aware Detector for Image Forgery Identification

Abstract:

With the rapid advancement of image generation techniques, robust forgery detection has become increasingly imperative to ensure the trustworthiness of digital media. Recent research indicates that the learned concepts of pre-trained models are critical for identifying forged images. However, misalignment between the forgery and concept spaces hinders the model's forgery detection performance. To address this problem, we propose a novel Semantic Discrepancy-aware Detector (SDD) that leverages reconstruction techniques to align the two spaces at a fine-grained visual level. By exploiting the conceptual knowledge embedded in the pre-trained vision-language model, we specifically design a semantic token sampling module to mitigate the space shifts caused by features irrelevant to both forgery and concepts. A concept-level forgery discrepancy learning module, based on reconstruction, enhances the interaction between concepts and forgeries, effectively capturing discrepancies under the concepts' guidance. Finally, the low-level forged feature enhancement integrates the learned concept-level forgery discrepancies to minimize redundant forgery information. Experiments conducted on two standard image forgery datasets demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed SDD, which achieves superior results compared to existing methods.
