New lightweight CNN method accurately attributes generative image models

Researchers have developed a new, lightweight method called Raw Patch Attribution (RPA) to identify which generative model produced a given image. Unlike previous complex methods, RPA utilizes a simple Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) that achieves high accuracy, reaching 98.0% for DRAGON and 92.9% for OpenFake models. This approach is efficient, robust to common image manipulations like compression and resizing, and can even group unseen generators or adapt to new models with minimal training. AI

IMPACT This research could lead to more effective detection of AI-generated images, aiding in combating misinformation and ensuring authenticity.

    Scalable Black-Box Model Attribution for Images

    The rapid proliferation of generative models raises the model attribution problem: given only an image, can we determine which model produced it? Existing methods have grown as elaborate as the generators they target, on the as- sumption that a more sophisticated model demands a …
