Auto-TLDR; Scalable Image Repurposing Detection with Graph Neural Network Based Model

Slides Poster Similar

Image repurposing is a category of fake news where a digitally unmanipulated image is misrepresented by means of its accompanying metadata such as captions, location, etc., where the image and accompanying metadata together comprise a multimedia package. The problem setup is to authenticate a query multimedia package using a reference dataset of potentially related packages as evidences. Existing methods are limited to using a single evidence (retrieved package), which ignores potential performance improvement from the use of multiple evidences. In this work, we introduce a novel graph neural network based model for image repurposing detection, which effectively utilizes multiple retrieved packages as evidences and is scalable with the number of evidences. We compare the scalability and performance of our model against existing methods. Experimental results show that the proposed model outperforms existing state-of-the-art for image repurposing detection with an error reduction of up to 25%.
