Venus-DefakerOne2: A Vision-Forensics Foundation Model with Broader Coverage

Hugging Face Daily Papers Papers

Summary

Venus-DefakerOne2 is a unified anti-forgery vision foundation model that broadens detection across forgery forms (digital manipulation, physical spoofs) and media types (images, videos) using Tide-Style-Tuning and entropy-based test adaptation, achieving state-of-the-art results on multiple forensic benchmarks.

Real-world forgery is inherently heterogeneous: it manifests not only as digital manipulation but also as physical spoofing, and is carried not only by images but also by videos. Despite substantial progress, a unified anti-forgery foundation model covering such a broad threat spectrum remains absent. In this paper, we present Venus-DefakerOne2, which substantially extends the forensic capability boundary along both the forgery-form and media-type dimensions. Trained on tens of millions of open-source and in-house samples, it incorporates two key designs. Tide-Style-Tuning alternates LoRA and full-parameter fine-tuning to balance computational efficiency, generalization, and hard-sample fitting while mitigating catastrophic forgetting. Entropy-based Test Adaptation determines the optimal prediction modality by analyzing prediction entropy. Venus-DefakerOne2 achieves new state-of-the-art performance across a comprehensive suite of benchmarks, including DeepFake faces (96.7%), AI-generated images (93.3%), tampered documents (87.6%), manipulated natural images (89.6%), physical spoofs (93.1%), and AI-generated videos (96.0%). It significantly outperforms both specialized expert models and its predecessor, DefakerOne, establishing itself as a powerful and versatile foundation model for binary-decision forensic tasks.

Abstract

Venus-DefakerOne2 is a unified anti-forgery foundation model that extends detection to diverse forgery forms and media types through alternating LoRA and full-parameter tuning and entropy-based test adaptation.

Real-world forgery is inherently heterogeneous: it manifests not only as digital manipulation but also as physical spoofing, and is carried not only by images but also by videos. Despite substantial progress, a unified anti-forgeryfoundation modelcovering such a broad threat spectrum remains absent. In this paper, we present Venus-DefakerOne2, which substantially extends the forensic capability boundary along both the forgery-form and media-type dimensions. Trained on tens of millions of open-source and in-house samples, it incorporates two key designs. Tide-Style-Tuning alternatesLoRAandfull-parameter fine-tuningto balance computational efficiency, generalization, and hard-sample fitting while mitigatingcatastrophic forgetting.Entropy-based Test Adaptationdetermines the optimal prediction modality by analyzing prediction entropy. Venus-DefakerOne2 achieves new state-of-the-art performance across a comprehensive suite of benchmarks, including DeepFake faces (96.7%), AI-generated images (93.3%), tampered documents (87.6%), manipulated natural images (89.6%), physical spoofs (93.1%), and AI-generated videos (96.0%). It significantly outperforms both specialized expert models and its predecessor, DefakerOne, establishing itself as a powerful and versatilefoundation modelfor binary-decision forensic tasks.

arXiv cs.AI

This paper addresses the growing threat of pure-synthesis fake news videos generated by text-to-video models, introducing a new ternary classification task and the first pure-synthesis fake news video dataset (PS-FNVD), along with a Reasoning-guided framework (R-T2V) that achieves state-of-the-art detection accuracy.

Certification of Real Images through Calibrated Content Authentication

Hugging Face Daily Papers

The paper evaluates twenty deepfake detectors against ten generators, finding detection accuracy degrading from 99.5% to 76% over time and collapsing below 2% under adversarial perturbations, then proposes a calibrated detection paradigm based on plausibly deniable authenticity via generator reconstruction, achieving at most 1% false certification.
