Bishwas Mishra, Abhishek Samanta · Sparklinglight Transactions on Artificial Intelligence and Quantum Computing · 2022
Deepfake image manipulation has achieved great attention in the previous year’s owing to brings solemn challenges from the public self-confidence. Forgery detection in face imaging has made considerable developments in detecting manipulated images. However, there is still a need for an efficient deepfake detection approach in complex background environments. This paper applies the state-of-the-art quantum transfer learning approach for classifying deepfake images from original face images. The proposed model comprises classical pre-trained ResNet-18 and quantum neural network layers that provide efficient features extraction to learn the different patterns of the deepfake face images. The proposed model is validated on a real-world deepfake dataset created using commercial software. An accuracy of 96.1 % was obtained.
