Idea
An explainable deepfake detection platform using retrieval-augmented generation and reinforcement learning for media verification teams.
Research Paper
Core Innovation
This paper presents RAIDX, which uniquely combines retrieval-augmented generation with group relative policy optimization to enhance both detection accuracy and explanation quality. Unlike prior methods, it uses external knowledge sources and reinforcement learning to autonomously generate detailed textual and visual explanations without heavy manual labeling. This approach improves transparency and trust in deepfake detection results.

Research Paper Overview
RAIDX: A Retrieval-Augmented Generation and GRPO Reinforcement Learning Framework for Explainable Deepfake Detection
Summary
RAIDX integrates Retrieval-Augmented Generation and Group Relative Policy Optimization to improve deepfake detection accuracy and explainability. It leverages external knowledge for better detection and autonomously generates fine-grained textual explanations and saliency maps without extensive manual annotations. Experiments show state-of-the-art performance and enhanced transparency in identifying real or fake images.
