针对深度伪造检测在图像退化下的脆弱性,提出首届鲁棒性挑战赛。
Robust Deepfake Detection, NTIRE 2026 Challenge: Report

- 设计包含常见与罕见退化的测试集,评估检测器真实场景表现。
- 337名参与者提交57份方案,最优模型融合大模型与退化训练提升鲁棒性。
- 限时24小时无标签测试,防止过拟合,适合关注真实部署的从业者。
鲁棒性是深度伪造检测中长期被忽视的问题。若检测性能在轻微图像退化下即显著下降,则其实际应用价值几乎为零。除了图像处理流程中可能发生的弱退化外,还存在恶意伪造者刻意引入退化以利用检测器弱点的情况。本文介绍了NTIRE 2026鲁棒深度伪造检测挑战赛,专门应对这一问题。参赛者需构建一个检测器,随后在未知测试集上评估,该测试集包含多种强度的常见与罕见退化。共有337名参与者和57份提交至最终排行榜,首届挑战反响热烈。为确保结果可靠性,参赛者仅获24小时完成测试运行,且不提供标签,防止对测试数据进行训练。此外,顶尖方案在私有测试集上评分,以检测是否存在过拟合。本报告详述了竞赛设置、数据集准备及方法表现。顶级方法依赖大基础模型、集成学习和退化训练,兼顾泛化性与鲁棒性。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Robustness is a long-overlooked problem in deepfake detection. However, detection performance is nearly worthless in the real world if it suffers under exposure to even slight image degradation. In addition to weaker degradations that can accidentally occur in the image processing pipeline, there is another risk of malicious deepfakes that specifically introduce degradations, purposefully exploiting the detector's weaknesses in that regard. Here, we present an overview of the NTIRE 2026 Robust Deepfake Detection Challenge, which specifically addresses that problem. Participants were tasked with building a detector that would later be tested on an unknown test-set, which included both common and uncommon degradations of various strengths. With a total number of 337 participants and 57 submissions to the final leaderboard, the first edition of the challenge was well received. To ensure the reliability of the results, participants were given only 24h to complete the test run with no labels provided, limiting the possibility of training on the test data. Furthermore, the top solutions were scored on a private test-set to detect any such overfitting. This report presents the competition setting, dataset preparation, as well as details and performance of methods. Top methods rely on large foundation models, ensembles, and degradation training to combine generality and robustness.
