Detection of computer graphics using attention-based dual-branch convolutional neural network from fused color components by He, Peisong, Li, Haoliang, Wang, Hongxia, Zhang, Ruimei

“…The proposed AD-CNN starts with a dual-branch structure where two branches work in parallel and have the identical shallow CNN architecture, except that the first convolutional layer in each branch has various kernel sizes to exploit low-level forensics traces in multi-scale. The output features from each branch are jointly optimized by the attention-based fusion module which can assign the asymmetric weights to different branches automatically. …”
