Evidence-based Decision Modeling for Synthetic Face Detection with Uncertainty-driven Active Learning

ArXi:2605.09935v1 Announce Type: new With the rapid development of deep generative models, forged facial images are massively exploited for illegal activities. Although existing synthetic face detection methods have achieved significant progress, they suffer from the inherent limitation of overconfidence due to their reliance on the Softmax activation function. Thus, these methods often lead to unreliable predictions when encountering unknown Out-of-Distribution (OOD) images, and cannot ascertain the model's uncertainty in its prediction.
