Deep learning models are pivotal in the advancements of Artificial Intelligence (AI) due to rapid learning and decision-making across various fields such as healthcare, finance, and technology. However, a harmful utilization of deep learning models poses a threat to public welfare, national security, and confidentiality. One such example is Deepfakes, which creates and modifies audiovisual data that humans cannot tell apart from the real ones. Due to the progression of deep learning models that produce manipulated data, accurately detecting and classifying deepfake data becomes a challenge. This paper presents a groundbreaking IRV2-Hardswish Framework for deepfake detection, leveraging a hyb... More >

Plant diseases create one of the most serious risks to the world's food supply, reducing agricultural production and endangering millions of people's lives. These illnesses can destroy crops, disrupt food supply networks, and increase the danger of food deficiency, emphasizing the importance of establishing strong methods to protect the world's food sources. The approaches of deep learning have transformed the field of plant disease diagnosis, providing sophisticated and perfect solutions for early detection and management. However, a prevalent concern with deep learning models is their susceptibility to a lack of generalization and robustness when faced with novel crop and disease categorie... More >

Image fusion, especially in the context of multi-focus image fusion, plays a crucial role in digital image processing by enhancing the clarity and detail of visual content through the combination of multiple source images. Traditional spatial domain methods often suffer from issues like spectral distortion and low contrast, which has led researchers to explore techniques in the frequency domain, such as the Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT). DCT-based methods are particularly valued for their computational efficiency, making them a strong alternative, especially in applications like image compression and fusion. This study focuses on DCT-based approaches, including variants that incorporate Si... More >
