Abstract

DeepFakes are a recent trend in computer vision, posing a thread to authenticity of digital media. For the detection of DeepFakes most prominently neural network based approaches are used. Those detectors often lack explanatory power on why the given decision was made, due to their black-box nature. Furthermore, taking the social, ethical and legal perspective (e.g. the upcoming European Commission in the Artificial Intelligence Act) into account, black-box decision methods should be avoided and Human Oversight should be guaranteed. In terms of explainability of AI systems, many approaches work based on post-hoc visualization methods (e.g. by back-propagation) or the reduction of complexity. In our paper a different approach is used, combining hand-crafted as well as neural network based components analyzing the same phenomenon to aim for explainability. The exemplary chosen semantic phenomenon analyzed here is the eye blinking behavior in a genuine or DeepFake video. Furthermore, the impact of video duration on the classification result is evaluated empirically, so that a minimum duration threshold can be set to reasonably detect DeepFakes.
