EfficientNet-B7 deepfake detector

The EfficientNet-B7 checkpoint from Selim Seferbekov's DFDC solution, exported for Facetorch.

This repository contains immutable model artifacts used by Facetorch. Use the packaged Facetorch manifest to select a revision and artifact; do not treat mutable main or older unlisted files as a release contract.

Contract

Field Value
Model ID deepfake-efficientnet-b7
Architecture TF EfficientNet-B7 Noisy Student
Input 380 by 380 RGB face crop
Output One binary logit per face; Facetorch applies sigmoid and a configurable decision threshold.
Dynamic shapes Batch dimension 1 through 64.
Weights license MIT

Preprocessing: Resize to 380 by 380 and apply ImageNet mean [0.485, 0.456, 0.406] and standard deviation [0.229, 0.224, 0.225].

Facetorch v1 supports the Torch 2.6 and 2.11 cohort files listed in its manifest. The legacy TorchScript object is CPU-only and requires the explicit legacy opt-in. Files from unsupported cohorts are not part of the v1 release contract.

Loading the manifest-selected artifact

import torch
from huggingface_hub import hf_hub_download
from facetorch.artifacts import get_model_manifest

MODEL_ID = "deepfake-efficientnet-b7"
device = "cuda" if torch.cuda.is_available() else "cpu"
artifact = get_model_manifest().candidates(
    MODEL_ID,
    torch_version=torch.__version__,
    device=device,
    allow_legacy_models=False,
)[0]
path = hf_hub_download(
    repo_id=artifact.repo_id,
    revision=artifact.revision,
    filename=artifact.filename,
)
model = torch.export.load(path).module().to(device).eval()
example = torch.randn(1, 3, 380, 380, device=device)
with torch.inference_mode():
    output = model(example)

The random tensor above is only a loading smoke test. Use Facetorch's documented preprocessing for meaningful inference.

Mapping method: exact_tensor_equality_against_all_seven_author_release_checkpoints.

Result: The named checkpoint uniquely matched all 1,202 model tensors exactly.

The repository owner approved the mapping and redistribution record on 2026-08-23. Under the recorded policy, an author-published checkpoint in a permissively licensed repository with no separate checkpoint terms uses that repository license. MIT and Apache-2.0 have not been converted or treated as interchangeable. See LICENSE, THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.md, and Facetorch's facetorch/models/governance.json.

Intended use

  • Research and human-assisted screening for manipulated imagery.

Limitations and responsible use

  • The score is not proof that media is authentic or manipulated and is vulnerable to domain shift and new generation methods.
  • Use corroborating forensic evidence and human review.
  • The checkpoint license does not grant rights to the DFDC or other training datasets.
  • The artifact license does not itself license training datasets, input data, or a deployment's processing of personal data.
  • Do not use model output as the sole basis for consequential decisions about a person.
