Abstract: A novel multi-modal audio video framework is disclosed. The framework advantageously leverages both audio and video information to accurately detect whether the video has been manipulated, e.g., detect whether the video is a so-called ‘deepfake.’ In a video-only pipeline, the framework adopts a vision encoder having a feature extractor and a Transformer encoder that leverages self-attention mechanisms to detect artifacts in a facial region of the video. Additionally, in a separate audio-video pipeline, the framework adopts an audio+lip encoder having a Transformer encoder that leverages cross-attention mechanisms to identify discrepancies between lip movements of the person and words spoken by the person in the video. These two modalities are used jointly to make an inference as to whether the video has been manipulated.
