AI models adapt to detect synthetic fingerprints with few-shot learning

Researchers have developed a new method for detecting synthetic fingerprints generated by artificial intelligence, addressing the increasing realism of these fakes. The approach treats synthetic fingerprint detection as a continual few-shot adaptation problem, enabling a base detector to quickly learn to identify new types of synthetic data. This is achieved using a combination of binary cross-entropy and supervised contrastive losses, along with replaying a small number of previously seen samples to prevent forgetting. AI
