Deepfake technology is getting better and better because of improvements in artificial intelligence and deep learning algorithms. Now it is possible to make videos and pictures that look very real so it is hard to tell if they are fake just by looking at them. People are using deepfakes in ways on social media in politics and in cybercrime, which is causing big problems with false information and privacy. This research paper is about a system that uses a special kind of computer program called a convolutional neural network to detect deepfakes. The system looks at parts of a persons face like their eyes and nose to figure out if a video is fake or real. We use a different steps to make this work including taking frames from videos getting rid of extra information finding faces and using the computer program to learn about the faces. We look at the face the eyes and the nose to make sure we get it right. We use videos from datasets like FaceForensics++ and DFDC to train and test our system. When we try out our system it works well and can tell if a video is fake or real. The system is good at detecting videos and does not make many mistakes. This system can help us make sure videos and pictures are real which is important, for keeping us safe on the internet.
KEYWORDS
This research is about a way to detect fake videos using a special kind of computer program called a Convolutional Neural Network. This program looks at the faces in the videos to see if they are real or not. It does this by breaking down the video into parts finding the faces and then looking at the faces in detail. The program is different from ways of detecting fake videos because it looks at different parts of the face like the eyes and nose and not just the whole face. This helps it find clues that might show the video is fake. The program was tested on some videos that are known to be fake. It was very good at telling which ones were real and which ones were not. It was also very good at not making mistakes and saying a real video was fake. There are some challenges when trying to detect videos like if the video is not very clear or if it is compressed.. Even with these challenges the program was still very good at detecting fake videos. It is very important to be able to detect videos because they can be used to trick people on the internet in politics and in other places. This research helps to make the internet a safer place by making it harder for people to spread videos. Overall this program is a way to detect fake videos and can be used as a starting point for more research, in this area. The Convolutional Neural Network-based deepfake detection framework is a way to identify manipulated videos and it can help to prevent the spread of misinformation online. The deepfake detection system can be used to make sure that videos are real and it can help to keep people from fake videos.
