CMTA: Leveraging Cross-Modal Temporal Artifacts for Generalizable AI-Generated Video Detection

The proliferation of advanced AI video synthesis techniques poses an unprecedented challenge to digital video authenticity. Existing AI-generated video (AIGV) detection methods primarily focus on uni-modal or spatiotemporal artifacts, but they overlook the rich cues within the visual-textual cross-modal space, especially the temporal stability of semantic alignment. In this work, we identify a distinctive fingerprint in AIGVs, termed cross-modal temporal artifact (CMTA). Unlike real videos that exhibit natural temporal fluctuations in cross-modal alignment due to semantic variations, AIGVs display unnaturally stable semantic trajectories governed by given input prompts. To bridge this gap, we propose the CMTA framework, a cross-modal detection approach that captures these unique temporal artifacts through joint cross-modal embedding and multi-grained temporal modeling. Specifically, CMTA leverages BLIP to generate frame-level image captions and utilizes CLIP to extract corresponding visual-textual representations. A coarse-grained temporal modeling branch is then designed to characterize temporal fluctuations in cross-modal alignment with a GRU. In parallel, a fine-grained branch is constructed to capture intricate inter-frame variations from integrated visual-textual features with a Transformer encoder. Extensive experiments on 40 subsets across four large-scale datasets, including GenVideo, EvalCrafter, VideoPhy, and VidProM, validate that our approach sets a new state-of-the-art while exhibiting superior cross-generator generalization. Code and models of CMTA will be released at https://github.com/hwang-cs-ime/CMTA

Can We Mitigate Backdoor Attack Using Adversarial Detection Methods?

Deep Neural Networks are well known to be vulnerable to adversarial attacks and backdoor attacks, where minor modifications on the input are able to mislead the models to give wrong results. Although defenses against adversarial attacks have been widely studied, investigation on mitigating backdoor attacks is still at an early stage. It is unknown whether there are any connections and common characteristics between the defenses against these two attacks. We conduct comprehensive studies on the connections between adversarial examples and backdoor examples of Deep Neural Networks to seek to answer the question: can we detect backdoor using adversarial detection methods. Our insights are based on the observation that both adversarial examples and backdoor examples have anomalies during the inference process, highly distinguishable from benign samples. As a result, we revise four existing adversarial defense methods for detecting backdoor examples. Extensive evaluations indicate that these approaches provide reliable protection against backdoor attacks, with a higher accuracy than detecting adversarial examples. These solutions also reveal the relations of adversarial examples, backdoor examples and normal samples in model sensitivity, activation space and feature space. This is able to enhance our understanding about the inherent features of these two attacks and the defense opportunities.

Object Instance Mining for Weakly Supervised Object Detection

Weakly supervised object detection (WSOD) using only image-level annotations has attracted growing attention over the past few years. Existing approaches using multiple instance learning easily fall into local optima, because such mechanism tends to learn from the most discriminative object in an image for each category. Therefore, these methods suffer from missing object instances which degrade the performance of WSOD. To address this problem, this paper introduces an end-to-end object instance mining (OIM) framework for weakly supervised object detection. OIM attempts to detect all possible object instances existing in each image by introducing information propagation on the spatial and appearance graphs, without any additional annotations. During the iterative learning process, the less discriminative object instances from the same class can be gradually detected and utilized for training. In addition, we design an object instance reweighted loss to learn larger portion of each object instance to further improve the performance. The experimental results on two publicly available databases, VOC 2007 and 2012, demonstrate the efficacy of proposed approach.

RobustScanner: Dynamically Enhancing Positional Clues for Robust Text Recognition

The attention-based encoder-decoder framework has recently achieved impressive results for scene text recognition, and many variants have emerged with improvements in recognition quality. However, it performs poorly on contextless texts (e.g., random character sequences) which is unacceptable in most of real application scenarios. In this paper, we first deeply investigate the decoding process of the decoder. We empirically find that a representative character-level sequence decoder utilizes not only context information but also positional information. Contextual information, which the existing approaches heavily rely on, causes the problem of attention drift. To suppress such side-effect, we propose a novel position enhancement branch, and dynamically fuse its outputs with those of the decoder attention module for scene text recognition. Specifically, it contains a position aware module to enable the encoder to output feature vectors encoding their own spatial positions, and an attention module to estimate glimpses using the positional clue (i.e., the current decoding time step) only. The dynamic fusion is conducted for more robust feature via an element-wise gate mechanism. Theoretically, our proposed method, dubbed \emph{RobustScanner}, decodes individual characters with dynamic ratio between context and positional clues, and utilizes more positional ones when the decoding sequences with scarce context, and thus is robust and practical. Empirically, it has achieved new state-of-the-art results on popular regular and irregular text recognition benchmarks while without much performance drop on contextless benchmarks, validating its robustness in both contextual and contextless application scenarios.
