Abstract

Due to the widespread use of smartphones with high-quality digital cameras and easy access to a wide range of software apps for recording, editing, and sharing videos and images, as well as the deep learning AI platforms, a new phenomenon of 'faking' videos has emerged. Deepfake algorithms can create fake images and videos that are virtually indistinguishable from authentic ones. Therefore, technologies that can detect and assess the integrity of digital visual media are crucial. Deepfakes, also known as deep learning-based fake videos, have become a major concern in recent years due to their ability to manipulate and alter images and videos in a way that is virtually indistinguishable from the original. These deepfake videos can be used for malicious purposes such as spreading misinformation, impersonating individuals, and creating fake news. Deepfake detection technologies use various approaches such as facial recognition, motion analysis, and audio-visual synchronization to identify and flag fake videos. However, the rapid advancement of deepfake technologies has made it increasingly difficult to detect these videos with high accuracy. In this paper, we aim to provide a comprehensive review of the current state of deepfake creation and detection technologies. We examine the various deep learning-based approaches used for creating deepfakes, as well as the techniques used for detecting them. Additionally, we analyze the limitations and challenges of current deepfake detection methods and discuss future research directions in this field. Overall, the paper highlights the importance of continued research and development in deepfake detection technologies in order to combat the negative impact of deepfakes on society and ensure the integrity of digital visual media.
