In this series of liveProjects, you’ll step into the role of a forensics consultant. You’re investigating a ring of cyber criminals who are blackmailing prominent social media personalities with scandalous “deepfake” videos. These videos use a deep learning model to splice a victim’s face onto an actor, creating highly realistic content that can be indistinguishable from the real thing. Your boss wants you to develop a method to efficiently detect these deepfakes from a huge data set of online videos. The method needs to be fast, and also run without needing GPU resources, which are in short supply. Each project in this series covers a different aspect of developing this deepfake detecting solution, with essential computer vision and machine learning skills you can easily transfer to other tasks.
These projects are designed for learning purposes and are not complete, production-ready applications or solutions.
