Project background.

Deepfakes are artificial intelligence generated or manipulated multimedia content (images, videos) that depict real people doing or saying things they never did in reality. Due to the recent advancements in architectures like Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs), deepfake generation became considerably faster and at a lower cost, presenting a significant threat to information media, politics and cyber security through spreading false information, identity theft and manipulating public opinion. Hence the necessity of having effective deepfake detection mechanisms.
