GIFGuard: Proactive Forensics against Deepfakes in Facial GIFs via Spatiotemporal Watermarking

The rapid evolution of deepfake technology poses an unprecedented threat to the authenticity of Graphics Interchange Format (GIF) imagery, which serves as a representative of short-loop temporal media in social networks. However, existing proactive forensics works are designed for static images, which limits their applicability to animated GIFs. To bridge this gap, we propose GIFGuard, the first spatiotemporal watermarking framework tailored for deepfake proactive forensics in GIFs. In the embedding stage, we propose the Spatiotemporal Adaptive Residual Encoder (STARE) to ensure robustness against high-level semantic tampering. It employs a 3D convolutional backbone with adaptive channel recalibration to capture globally coherent temporal dependencies. In the extraction stage, we design the Deep Integrity Restoration Decoder (DIRD). It utilizes a spatiotemporal hourglass architecture equipped with 3D attention to restore latent features, allowing for the accurate extraction of watermark signals even under severe facial manipulation. Furthermore, we construct GIFfaces, the first large-scale benchmark dataset curated for GIF proactive forensics to facilitate research in this domain. Extensive results show that GIFGuard achieves high-fidelity visual quality and remarkable robustness performance against deepfakes. Related code and dataset will be released.

SAPL: Semantic-Agnostic Prompt Learning in CLIP for Weakly Supervised Image Manipulation Localization

Malicious image manipulation threatens public safety and requires efficient localization methods. Existing approaches depend on costly pixel-level annotations which make training expensive. Existing weakly supervised methods rely only on image-level binary labels and focus on global classification, often overlooking local edge cues that are critical for precise localization. We observe that feature variations at manipulated boundaries are substantially larger than in interior regions. To address this gap, we propose Semantic-Agnostic Prompt Learning (SAPL) in CLIP, which learns text prompts that intentionally encode non-semantic, boundary-centric cues so that CLIPs multimodal similarity highlights manipulation edges rather than high-level object semantics. SAPL combines two complementary modules Edge-aware Contextual Prompt Learning (ECPL) and Hierarchical Edge Contrastive Learning (HECL) to exploit edge information in both textual and visual spaces. The proposed ECPL leverages edge-enhanced image features to generate learnable textual prompts via an attention mechanism, embedding semantic-irrelevant information into text features, to guide CLIP focusing on manipulation edges. The proposed HECL extract genuine and manipulated edge patches, and utilize contrastive learning to boost the discrimination between genuine edge patches and manipulated edge patches. Finally, we predict the manipulated regions from the similarity map after processing. Extensive experiments on multiple public benchmarks demonstrate that SAPL significantly outperforms existing approaches, achieving state-of-the-art localization performance.

Towards Intrinsic Common Discriminative Features Learning for Face Forgery Detection using Adversarial Learning

Existing face forgery detection methods usually treat face forgery detection as a binary classification problem and adopt deep convolution neural networks to learn discriminative features. The ideal discriminative features should be only related to the real/fake labels of facial images. However, we observe that the features learned by vanilla classification networks are correlated to unnecessary properties, such as forgery methods and facial identities. Such phenomenon would limit forgery detection performance especially for the generalization ability. Motivated by this, we propose a novel method which utilizes adversarial learning to eliminate the negative effect of different forgery methods and facial identities, which helps classification network to learn intrinsic common discriminative features for face forgery detection. To leverage data lacking ground truth label of facial identities, we design a special identity discriminator based on similarity information derived from off-the-shelf face recognition model. With the help of adversarial learning, our face forgery detection model learns to extract common discriminative features through eliminating the effect of forgery methods and facial identities. Extensive experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method under both intra-dataset and cross-dataset evaluation settings.
