Rethinking the Readout: Unlocking Video Backbones for AI-Generated Video Detection
Manni Cui, Ziheng Qin, ZiAn Wang, Ruiqi Liu, Dianyuan Zou, Jianglan Wei, et al.
AI-generated videos (AIGVs) typically contain subtle temporal artifacts that arise from inter-frame inconsistencies rather than within individual frames. A detector that captures such artifacts should therefore benefit from video pretrained backbones over image only ones. In prac…
