This work proposes a practical dataset-aware framework for deepfake detection that relies only on dataset identity as a naturally available supervisory signal for multitask (MT) and gradient reversal layer (GRL) training, allowing the model to investigate both dataset-aware multitask supervision and adversarial suppression of dataset-specific information.
Abstract
Recent advances in speech synthesis and voice conversion, which pose threats to security and privacy, have underscored the need for deepfake detection technology. Although existing detection systems achieve strong performance on individual datasets, they often fail to generalize across diverse datasets. Prior methods for improving generalization, including data augmentation, adversarial training on auxiliary factors such as language or codec types, and Mixture-of-Experts (MoE), are limited by predefined augmentation coverage, difficulties in obtaining auxiliary factors, and substantial model complexity. In this work, we propose a practical dataset-aware framework for deepfake detection. Our method targets heterogeneous datasets for which auxiliary annotations such as language, codec, or spoofing method may not be consistently available. We therefore rely only on dataset identity as a naturally available supervisory signal for multitask (MT) and gradient reversal layer (GRL) training, allowing the model to investigate both dataset-aware multitask supervision and adversarial suppression of dataset-specific information. We conduct experiments following the 2025 Speech DeepFake Arena benchmark protocol, evaluating our model across multiple evaluation datasets and reporting aggregate performance in terms of Equal Error Rate (EER), including Average EER and Pooled EER. Compared with the baseline, MT reduces Average EER by 13.14% relatively, while GRL reduces Pooled EER by 5.32% relatively. These results demonstrate that our method can improve aggregate detection performance across heterogeneous evaluation datasets, offering a practical solution for deploying reliable deepfake detection systems on diverse and unseen real-world data.
Single domain generalization (SDG) aims to learn a model from one labeled source domain that generalizes to unseen target domains. A common strategy is to enrich the source distribution with augmented or generated samples, and recent text-to-image (T2I) diffusion models provide a strong generative prior for this purpose. However, diversity alone is insufficient for robust generalization, because useful generated samples should also capture variations that the current classifier finds difficult. Motivated by distributionally robust optimization (DRO), we define a semantic ambiguity set in the class-conditional generative space of a pretrained T2I model and search it for samples with high classification loss under the current classifier. To this end, we introduce PAPT++, a risk-aware adversarial generation-training framework for SDG. PAPT++ first learns diverse semantic reference images for each class through image-text alignment and intra-class diversity regularization. These references then serve as denoising targets during classifier-guided diffusion synthesis, reducing semantic drift while guiding generation toward challenging variations. The generated samples are combined with the source data to update the classifier, and the updated classifier guides the next synthesis round in return. In this way, PAPT++ progressively exposes the classifier to challenging yet semantically consistent variations. Extensive experiments on standard SDG benchmarks demonstrate the superiority of the proposed PAPT++ method and the effectiveness of its main components.

While Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs), represented by LLaVA and GPT-4V, have demonstrated remarkable capabilities, their visual inputs remain vulnerable to adversarial attacks, posing significant security risks. Existing defense methods predominantly target single-task scenarios (e.g., zero-shot classification) and consequently lack generalizability across various multimodal tasks. To address this limitation, we propose a dual adversarial fine-tuning framework that jointly optimizes visual and semantic supervision signals from two modalities, enhancing model robustness while generalizing across multiple downstream tasks. The proposed framework comprises two core components, i.e., $\textbf{Visual}$ supervision branch and $\textbf{Semantic}$ supervision branch. The former branch leverages features from clean images, extracted via a frozen original vision encoder, to guide adversarial robustness while the latter incorporates caption-image alignment as a contextual signal to preserve semantic coherence under attack. Moreover, our method achieves cross-task robustness by simply replacing the CLIP vision encoder in the original model, with no need of separate task-specific retraining or architecture modifications.Extensive experiments demonstrate that our approach outperforms the state-of-the-art method in adversarial robustness evaluation across zero-shot classification, image captioning, and visual question answering (VQA) tasks.

The rapid advancement of voice synthesis technologies such as text-to-speech and voice conversion poses significant threats to speech-based authentication systems, necessitating robust deepfake detection methods. In this work, we propose a novel E-Branchformer-based architecture that effectively leverages self-supervised speech representations for audio deepfake detection. Our model employs parallel branches to simultaneously capture global contextual dependencies through multi-head self-attention and local temporal patterns through convolutional processing. To enhance discriminative capability, we integrate depthwise convolution and Squeeze-and-Excitation modules that enrich the classification token with refined patch token information after feature merging. Extensive experiments on ASVspoof 2021 LA, DF, and In-the-Wild datasets demonstrate state-of-the-art performance with equal error rates of 0.88%, 1.85%, and 6.30% respectively, substantially outperforming existing methods. Comprehensive ablation studies validate that the dual-branch architecture provides complementary discriminative information, Squeeze-and-Excitation Aggregation significantly improves SSL feature integration, and the combination of DWConv and SE modules is critical for effective class token enhancement. The superior performance on real-world scenarios demonstrates strong generalization capability to diverse acoustic conditions and unseen spoofing attacks.

CAFAD is proposed, a plug-and-play detection framework that combines multi-domain acoustic feature fusion and temporal pyramid matching for variable-length adversarial audio detection that achieves an average detection accuracy of 99.25%, with a false positive rate of 1.00% on benign samples.
This paper reveals that samples generated by a well-trained generative model are close to clean ones but far from adversarial ones, and proposes Consistency Model-based Adversarial Purification (CMAP), which optimizes vectors within the latent space of a pre-trained consistency model to generate samples for restoring clean data.
