Fighting Deepfake
Publications
Deepfake phenomenon has become very popular nowadays due to the possibility to create incredibly realistic images, videos and audio using deep learning tools, mainly based on ad-hoc Generative Adversarial Networks (GAN). The illicit use of these technologies (for example in the pornography industry) is increasing day by day, creating several problems in people's lives, spreading misinformation, political problems and many others. The goal of this research will be to create new sophisticated deepfake detection algorithms able to detect those forensic traces hidden in images and videos, a sort of fingerprint left in the synthetic multimedia data by the GAN engine generation process.
