Updates

• NEWS! -- The DFGC-2022 competition dataset and summary paper are released here.
• NEWS! -- The first place solution of DFGC detection track is here.
• NEWS! -- We released the DFGC-21 competition summary paper and the DFGC-21 dataset.
• NEWS! -- The competition final results are announced on the Codalab page. Congratulations to the winners!
• April 10: added a new "landms_68" field in the sample_meta.json file. We are now providing the 68 facial landmarks apart from bounding box and 5-landmark information. Landmarks are arranged in a column of "x1 y1 x2 y2 ... x68 y68". Note fake images submitted by different teams share exactly the same set of landmark labelling with the baseline fake images, which is an approximation and may have minor errors. So use this information with caution.

Introcuction

This the the starter-kit for the DFGC-2021 competition. Please apply for CelebDF-v2 dataset from this site.

List Files

• submit_image_list.txt: For the creation track, this is the names of specified 1000 image to be submitted. e.g. "id0_id1_0000_00060" stands for the 60th frame of the target video id0_0000.mp4 with its face swapped to id1. Submitted images must be named exactly as specified in this file, and the format can be '.png' or '.jpg'. Note the face-swapped image should have exactly the same image size (width and height) as the original target frame.
  The 1000 created images should be packed into a single .zip file with no extra subdirectories. e.g.:
  submission_swap.zip
  --id0_id1_0000_00000.png
  --id0_id1_0000_00060.png
  ...
  --id58_id57_0008_00120.png

• train-list.txt: For the detection track, this is the names of training videos. No extra training data is allowed except the data in this set or obtained from this set. The label 0 is real, and 1 is fake.

• test-list.txt: This is the testing video set used for evaluation. submit_image_list.txt images are extracted from this set. Do NOT use this set for training detection models or model validation.

Example Training Code for a Baseline Detection Model

We provide an example for training a baseline Xception model using the CelebDF-v2 training set. Please see Det_model_training/ . Main requirements for this example code are Pytorch and facenet_pytorch.

The processing and training steps are as follows (remember to change to your specific data directories in the codes):

1. cd to Det_model_training/
2. Run python preprocess/crop_face.py to process training set to cropped faces.
3. Run python preprocess/make_csv.py to produce train-val split files.
4. Run python train_xception_baseline.py to train the Xception model.

Example Submission for the Detection Track

The submission for the detection track is a zip file with at least a single python program file named model.py . Other depended files may also be included as you need. The submission format is:
submission_det.zip
--model.py
--any_others
Note there must NOT be any redundant directories above model.py .

An example detection submission is in submission_Det/ (after unzip). It is the baseline Xception model trained above. The requirement is that model.py has a class named Model and it has a __init__ method and a run method. The __init__ method should take no extra input argument, and it is responsible for model definement and initialization (model loading). The run method should take two input argument input_dir and json_file, where the first one is the input testing image directory (e.g. sample_imgs/) and the second one is a json file (e.g. sample_meta.json) with the face bounding box and five landmarks information of each testing image (detected by a MTCNN detector). You may or may not use this information in your inference code, but this input parameter MUST be kept. The output of the run method should be a list of testing image names and a list of predictions in exact correspondence. The prediction is the probability of testing image being fake,
in the range [0, 1], where 0 is real and 1 is fake. You can also decide your own batchsize in the inference code according to your deep network size if you use deep learning methods, and this may speed up your submission. For more details, please read the example code. To run this baseline model, first download the weights.ckpt from BaiduYun with extraction code b759 or from GoogleDrive, and put it in submission_Det/ .

Before making a submission to the competition site, please first test it locally using the evaluate_Detection.py. The competition server uses the nicedif/dfgc:v2 Docker image from here. Specific python packages in this docker are listed in docker_packages.txt. You can install this docker image to test your submissions locally as in the same environment with our evaluation server. The actual evaluation will be running on an Alibaba Cloud Linux server instance with a Nvidia T4 GPU (16GB GPU mem) and 4 CPU cores and 15GB memories.

In case your inference code needs extra python packages that are not installed in our docker image, please include them in your submission zip. An example detection submission is in submission_Det2 that uses efficientnet_pytorch and albumentations (it depends on imgaug) as extra dependencies (model weights file is omitted). Note how we add python paths and import these packages in the model.py. Again, it is highly recomended to first test your submissions locally using our evaluation docker image and test your package imports.
