CIPHER: Counterfeit Image Pattern High-level Examination via Representation

ArXi:2603.29356v1 Announce Type: cross The rapid progress of generative adversarial networks (GANs) and diffusion models has enabled the creation of synthetic faces that are increasingly difficult to distinguish from real images. This progress, however, has also amplified the risks of misinformation, fraud, and identity abuse, underscoring the urgent need for detectors that remain robust across diverse generative models. In this work, we
