The exponential growth of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and deep learning technologies has enabled the generation of highly
realistic synthetic images known as deepfakes. These manipulated images are created using advanced generative models such
as Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) and autoencoders, which can convincingly alter facial features, expressions, and
identities. While deepfake technology offers creative and entertainment benefits, it also introduces severe risks including
misinformation dissemination, digital identity theft, reputational damage, political manipulation, and cybersecurity threats.
This research presents a comprehensive AI-based Deepfake Image Detection System that identifies manipulated images using
deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs), transfer learning, and frequency-domain analysis. The proposed model extracts
both spatial and spectral features to detect subtle inconsistencies introduced during the deepfake generation process. The
system is trained and evaluated on benchmark datasets to ensure reliability and robustness.
Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed approach achieves high classification accuracy, improved generalization
capability, and real-time detection performance. The system provides a scalable and practical solution for deployment in digital
forensic tools, social media monitoring systems, and cybersecurity platforms.
