New framework diagnoses shortcuts in deepfake audio detection

Researchers have developed a new framework to diagnose shortcuts in deepfake audio detection systems. This intervention-based approach uses controlled acoustic perturbations to identify which features models exploit, distinguishing legitimate domain shifts from exploitable artifacts. Experiments on the XLS-R-300M model using RawGAT-ST across ASVspoof datasets showed that non-speech intervals were the most significant shortcut, leading to the largest performance drops when altered.
