Look inside
Face detection has numerous applications across software and is an essential part of the pipeline for detecting deepfake videos. In this liveProject, you’ll implement a component that detects faces in videos, and normalizes them to the same size and visual appearance. This component is a vital foundation for a deepfake detection system.
This project is a part of the series Detecting Deepfakes Using Visual Inconsistencies.
This project is designed for learning purposes and is not a complete, production-ready application or solution.
