Abstract [English]

The DeepFake tech has had a theatrical impact on the visual arts, not only the provision of creative technology, but also the question of authenticity, copyright and misinformation. The deep learning and generative adversarial networks (GANs) produce deepfakes artificial images, which are extremely harmful to art. The article discusses the DeepFake detection and management within visual art work with emphasis on the practical application of analysis through multiple-layered approaches that would assist in ensuring the presence of the digital authenticity. DeepFake was managed through three core approaches, namely AI-Based Detection Frameworks, Blockchain-Based Authentication System, and Human-AI Collaborative Review Models. The decentralized strategy was based on blockchain technology, which was the Non-Fungible Token (NFT) registration by the cryptographic hashing to authenticate the provenance and ownership of the artworks. The human-AI composite system has integrated the inspection of the specialists on the visual level with the automatic monitoring of the anomalies to increase the readability and reduce the number of false alarms. The experiment revealed that the AI-based systems, blockchain approaches, and the collusion between human beings and AI detected 92.3, 87.6 and 94.1 % of people respectively. These findings suggest that the incorporation of algorithmic intelligence, a safe check, and human knowledge can help in quite a powerful DeepFake verification and management in the field of visual arts.
