Deepfake detection on low-resolution images using optimized Ensemble Learning
摘要
The rapid advancement of generative models has precipitated a surge in synthetic imagery, posing a severe threat to the integrity of digital information across multiple domains. Detecting such content presents a significant challenge, particularly in low-resolution scenarios where manipulation artifacts are often subtle or obscured. To address this issue, we propose a comprehensive Ensemble Learning framework designed to enhance deepfake detection capabilities on the CIFAKE dataset. We conduct a systematic empirical evaluation of four core strategies: bagging, voting, boosting, and stacking, utilizing state-of-the-art CNN architectures as backbone models. Furthermore, this study introduces a dynamic threshold optimization (
