DecepGPT: Schema-Driven Deception Detection with Multicultural Datasets and Robust Multimodal Learning

Multimodal deception detection aims to identify deceptive behavior by analyzing audiovisual cues for forensics and security. In these high-stakes settings, investigators need verifiable evidence connecting audiovisual cues to final decisions, along with reliable generalization across domains and cultural contexts. However, existing benchmarks provide only binary labels without intermediate reasoning cues. Datasets are also small with limited scenario coverage, leading to shortcut learning. We address these issues through three contributions. First, we construct reasoning datasets by augmenting existing benchmarks with structured cue-level descriptions and reasoning chains, enabling model output auditable reports. Second, we release T4-Deception, a multicultural dataset based on the unified ``To Tell The Truth'' television format implemented across four countries. With 1695 samples, it is the largest non-laboratory deception detection dataset. Third, we propose two modules for robust learning under small-data conditions. Stabilized Individuality-Commonality Synergy (SICS) refines multimodal representations by synergizing learnable global priors with sample-adaptive residuals, followed by a polarity-aware adjustment that bi-directionally recalibrates representations. Distilled Modality Consistency (DMC) aligns modality-specific predictions with the fused multimodal predictions via knowledge distillation to prevent unimodal shortcut learning. Experiments on three established benchmarks and our novel dataset demonstrate that our method achieves state-of-the-art performance in both in-domain and cross-domain scenarios, while exhibiting superior transferability across diverse cultural contexts. The datasets and codes will be released.

End-to-end Recording Device Identification Based on Deep Representation Learning

Deep learning techniques have achieved specific results in recording device source identification. The recording device source features include spatial information and certain temporal information. However, most recording device source identification methods based on deep learning only use spatial representation learning from recording device source features, which cannot make full use of recording device source information. Therefore, in this paper, to fully explore the spatial information and temporal information of recording device source, we propose a new method for recording device source identification based on the fusion of spatial feature information and temporal feature information by using an end-to-end framework. From a feature perspective, we designed two kinds of networks to extract recording device source spatial and temporal information. Afterward, we use the attention mechanism to adaptively assign the weight of spatial information and temporal information to obtain fusion features. From a model perspective, our model uses an end-to-end framework to learn the deep representation from spatial feature and temporal feature and train using deep and shallow loss to joint optimize our network. This method is compared with our previous work and baseline system. The results show that the proposed method is better than our previous work and baseline system under general conditions.
