DecepTIV: A Large-Scale Benchmark for Robust Detection of T2V and I2V Synthetic Videos

Sotirios Stamnas, University of Warwick
Abstract
The latest advances of generative AI have enabled the creation of synthetic media that are indistinguishable from authentic content. To counteract this, the research community has developed a great number of detectors targeting face-centric deepfake manipulations such as face-swapping, face-reenactment, face editing, and entire face synthesis. However, the detection of the most recent type of synthetic videos, Text-To-Video (T2V) and Image-To-Video (I2V), remains significantly under-researched, largely due to the lack of reliable open-source detection datasets. To address this gap, we introduce DecepTIV, a large-scale fake video detection dataset containing thousands of videos generated by the latest T2V and I2V models. To ensure real-world relevance, DecepTIV features diverse, realistic-looking scenes in contexts where misinformation could pose societal risks. We also include perturbed versions of the videos using common augmentations and distractors, to evaluate detector robustness under typical real-world degradations. In addition, we propose a modular generation pipeline that supports the seamless extension of the dataset with future T2V and I2V models. The pipeline generates synthetic videos conditioned on real video content, which ensures content similarity between real and fake examples. Our findings show that such content similarity is essential for training robust detectors, as models may otherwise overfit to scene semantics rather than learning generalizable forensic artifacts.

"A symphony must be like the world. It must embrace everything."

Probably the most famous quote attributed to Gustav Mahler and when you listen to some of his works it feels like he is changing direction every few notes with the vicissitudes of life. But amid the turmoil he wrote some of the most beautiful romantic music you'll hear. Here Juanjo Mena conducts the BBC Philharmonic.
