FiSeR uses coarse contrastive separation of natural vs synthetic images plus fine contrastive grouping by generator identity to improve cross-domain AUROC by +10.22 over DIRE baseline on multiple test sets.
An automated fact-check-based pipeline for in-the-wild AI image data, when mixed with generator data in continual learning, lets detectors adapt to new generators while avoiding forgetting and delivers 8-9% accuracy gains on two existing models.
SEF introduces GAN upsampling for diverse artifacts and expert fusion to reduce domain interference, yielding stronger generalization on 13 benchmarks for AI-generated image detection.
ODP-Net uses instance-aware orthogonal decomposition, perturbation-based purification, and manifold alignment to separate universal forgery traces, generator fingerprints, and semantics, achieving SOTA on unseen architectures like Stable Diffusion 3.
A detector that trains a separate LoRA adapter per generator and mixes them with a learned router reports the best mean accuracy on AIGIBench and Chameleon, with weaker per-dataset results on several subsets.
Frozen features from vision foundation models enable a linear probe to outperform specialized AIGI detectors by over 30% on in-the-wild data due to emergent forgery knowledge from pre-training.
PiN-CLIP jointly trains a noise generator and detector under a variational positive-incentive principle to inject feature-space noise that suppresses shortcut directions and improves out-of-distribution accuracy by 5.4 points on images from 42 generative models.
Frozen multimodal encoders enable robust AI-generated image detection via linear classification on a 10K-image curated training set that improves generalization over larger datasets.
DeFakerOne is a unified foundation model for joint image-level fake image detection and pixel-level localization that reports SOTA results on 39 detection and 9 localization benchmarks.
HEDGE is a heterogeneous ensemble using progressive DINOv3 training, multi-scale features, and MetaCLIP2 diversity with dual-gating fusion to achieve robust AI-generated image detection and 4th place in the NTIRE 2026 challenge.
