US Patent 11961282 Methods and systems for detecting deepfakes

A system for detecting synthetic videos may include a server, a plurality of weak classifiers, and a strong classifier. The server may be configured to receive a prediction result from each of a plurality of weak classifiers; and send the prediction results from each of the plurality of weak classifiers to a strong classifier. The weak classifiers may be trained on real videos and known synthetic videos to analyze a distinct characteristic of a video file; detect irregularities of the distinct characteristic; generate a prediction result associated with the distinct characteristic, the prediction result being a prediction on whether the video file is synthetic; and output the prediction result to the server. The strong classifier may be trained to receive the prediction results of the plurality of weak classifiers from the server; analyze the prediction results; and determine if the video file is synthetic based on the prediction results.
