AFSS: Artifact-Focused Self-Synthesis for Mitigating Bias in Audio Deepfake Detection
The rapid advancement of generative models has enabled highly realistic audio deepfakes, yet current detectors suffer from a critical bias problem, leading to poor generalization across unseen datasets. This paper proposes Artifact-Focused Self-Synthesis (AFSS), a method designed to mitigate this bias by generating pseudo-fake samples from real audio via two mechanisms: self-conversion and self-reconstruction. The core insight of AFSS lies in enforcing same-speaker constraints, ensuring that real and pseudo-fake samples share identical speaker identity and semantic content. This forces the detector to focus exclusively on generation artifacts rather than irrelevant confounding factors. Fu...
