Leveraging Arbitrary Data Sources for AI-Generated Image Detection Without Sacrificing Generalization
The accelerating advancement of generative models has introduced new challenges for detecting AI-generated images, especially in real-world scenarios where novel generation techniques emerge rapidly. Existing learning paradigms are likely to make classifiers data-dependent, resulting in narrow decision margins and, consequently, limited generalization ability to unseen generative models. We observe that both real and generated images intend to form clustered low-dimensional manifolds within high-level feature spaces extracted by pre-trained visual encoders. Building on this observation, we propose a single-class attribution modeling framework that first amplifies the intrinsic differences...
