A Single Simple Patch is All You Need for AI-generated Image Detection

The recent development of generative models unleashes the potential of generating hyper-realistic fake images. To prevent the malicious usage of fake images, AI-generated image detection aims to distinguish fake images from real images. Nevertheless, existing methods usually suffer from poor generalizability across different generators. In this work, we propose an embarrassingly simple approach named SSP, i.e., feeding the noise pattern of a Single Simple Patch (SSP) to a binary classifier, which could achieve 14.6% relative improvement over the recent method …
