DiffusionFace: Towards a Comprehensive Dataset for Diffusion-Based Face Forgery Analysis
This addresses security and misinformation concerns by providing a dataset for evaluating face forgery detection models, though it is incremental as it builds on existing forgery analysis efforts.
The authors tackled the lack of high-quality datasets for analyzing diffusion-based face forgeries by creating DiffusionFace, a comprehensive dataset with 11 diffusion models and various forgery categories, which includes metadata and real-world images to improve detection methods.
The rapid progress in deep learning has given rise to hyper-realistic facial forgery methods, leading to concerns related to misinformation and security risks. Existing face forgery datasets have limitations in generating high-quality facial images and addressing the challenges posed by evolving generative techniques. To combat this, we present DiffusionFace, the first diffusion-based face forgery dataset, covering various forgery categories, including unconditional and Text Guide facial image generation, Img2Img, Inpaint, and Diffusion-based facial exchange algorithms. Our DiffusionFace dataset stands out with its extensive collection of 11 diffusion models and the high-quality of the generated images, providing essential metadata and a real-world internet-sourced forgery facial image dataset for evaluation. Additionally, we provide an in-depth analysis of the data and introduce practical evaluation protocols to rigorously assess discriminative models' effectiveness in detecting counterfeit facial images, aiming to enhance security in facial image authentication processes.
