LoCC: Detection and Localization of Lip-Syncing Deepfakes via Counterfactual Frame Consistency (opens in new tab)

Lip-syncing deepfakes are among the most challenging forms of manipulated media because their artifacts are localized almost exclusively to the mouth region and evolve dynamically over time. Detecting such deepfakes requires precise temporal and spatial modeling of lip motion. In this paper, we propose LoCC, a novel detection framework that performs fine-grained detection and localization of lip-syncing deepfakes at both segment and frame levels...
