Solution Overview

Problem

Existing Deepfake detection methods face challenges in accurately identifying false videos, particularly in handling temporal discontinuities and varying interference conditions, which can lead to decreased accuracy and susceptibility to deception.

Innovation Solution

A false video detection method and device that extracts video segments from a target video, performs feature extraction, and utilizes a time attention model to enhance feature maps, ultimately inputting these enhanced features into a fully connected layer to determine whether the video is true or false.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If conventional Deepfake detection methods are used, then the detection process is simple, but the accuracy is low and susceptible to temporal discontinuities and interference conditions

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedetection accuracyVSAvoidmodel complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The video is divided into multiple segments, and the model processes each segment separately to capture temporal discontinuities. This segmentation allows the detection system to identify fake videos more accurately by analyzing temporal patterns across different video portions, resolving the contradiction between maintaining simplicity and improving detection accuracy.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces a time-attention mechanism that adds a temporal dimension to the feature extraction process. By incorporating temporal attention weights across video segments, the model captures temporal discontinuities without requiring excessively complex architecture, thus improving accuracy while controlling complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

2Measurement precision

If the time attention model is used to capture temporal discontinuities, then the detection accuracy improves, but the computational complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedetection accuracyVSAvoidcomputational energy
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The time-attention mechanism applies partial attention weighting to video segments rather than processing all segments with equal complexity. By focusing computational resources on segments with higher attention weights (indicative of temporal discontinuities), the model achieves high detection accuracy while reducing overall computational energy consumption.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #16Partial or excessive action

3Loss of information

If feature extraction is performed on all N×M image frames, then comprehensive features are obtained, but the processing time increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvefeature completenessVSAvoidprocessing time
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The model extracts only the most relevant features from video segments using the time-attention mechanism. By identifying and extracting key temporal features rather than processing all features uniformly, the system maintains feature completeness for accurate detection while significantly reducing processing time through selective feature extraction.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

AI summary

A false video detection method is provided. The method includes: retrieving N video segments in a target video, wherein each video segment includes M image frames; performing a feature retrieving procedure on the N×M image frames to obtain feature maps corresponding to the N×M image frames; inputting the feature maps into a time-attention model to obtain concentrated feature; multiplying the concentrated feature with the feature maps to obtain first enhanced feature maps, adding the first enhanced feature maps with the feature maps to obtain second enhanced feature maps, and inputting the second enhanced feature maps into a fully connected layer to obtain a determination result outputted by the fully connected layer, wherein the determination result indicates that the target video is true or false.
