Abstract

Frontiers in Multimedia Forgery Detection and Anti-Forgery Technologies: Challenges, Innovations, and Applications

With the rapid advancement of generative AI, deep learning, and multimedia editing tools, the creation of realistic forged multimedia content (e.g., deepfakes, manipulated images/videos, synthetic audio) has become increasingly accessible. While these technologies bring convenience to creative industries, they also pose severe threats to information authenticity, personal privacy, social trust, and even national security. This academic forum aims to serve as an interdisciplinary platform for researchers, engineers, policymakers, and practitioners worldwide to exchange cutting-edge insights, innovative methodologies, and practical experiences in multimedia forgery and detection.​

We will focus on the latest progress in forgery generation techniques, the development of robust detection algorithms, the construction of high-quality datasets, and the exploration of regulatory and ethical frameworks. By bridging the gaps between academia and industry, theory and practice, this forum seeks to promote collaborative research, address critical challenges such as cross-modal forgery, adversarial attacks, and real-time detection, and contribute to the development of reliable, scalable solutions for combating misinformation and protecting digital authenticity. We welcome original research papers, review articles, and case studies that advance the state-of-the-art in this dynamic and vital field.​
