Detecting AI-generated Artwork
This addresses concerns for human artists and art communities by providing a tool to detect AI-generated art, though it is incremental as it applies existing methods to a new domain.
The paper tackled the problem of distinguishing AI-generated from human-generated artwork by testing machine learning models like Logistic Regression, SVM, MLP, and CNN on styles such as baroque, cubism, and expressionism, achieving a multiclass accuracy of 0.8208 and a binary classification accuracy of 0.9758.
The high efficiency and quality of artwork generated by Artificial Intelligence (AI) has created new concerns and challenges for human artists. In particular, recent improvements in generative AI have made it difficult for people to distinguish between human-generated and AI-generated art. In this research, we consider the potential utility of various types of Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL) models in distinguishing AI-generated artwork from human-generated artwork. We focus on three challenging artistic styles, namely, baroque, cubism, and expressionism. The learning models we test are Logistic Regression (LR), Support Vector Machine (SVM), Multilayer Perceptron (MLP), and Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). Our best experimental results yield a multiclass accuracy of 0.8208 over six classes, and an impressive accuracy of 0.9758 for the binary classification problem of distinguishing AI-generated from human-generated art.
