Nowadays, faces in videos can be easily replaced with the development of deep learning, and these manipulated videos are realistic and cannot be distinguished by human eyes. Some people maliciously use the technology to attack others, especially celebrities and politicians, causing destructive social impacts. Therefore, it is imperative to design an accurate method for detecting face manipulation. However, most of the existing methods adopt single convolutional neural network as the feature extraction module, causing the extracted features to be inconsistent with the human visual mechanism. Moreover, the rich details and semantic information cannot be reflected with single feature, limiting the detection performance. Therefore, this paper tackles the above problems by proposing a novel face manipulation detection method based on a supervised multi-feature fusion attention network (SMFAN). Specifically, the capsule network is used for face manipulation detection, and the SMFAN is added to the original capsule network to extract details of the fake face image. Further, the focal loss is used to realize hard example mining. Finally, the experimental results on the public dataset FaceForensics++ show that the proposed method has better performance.

In Part I of this paper, we proposed and analyzed a novel algorithmic framework for the minimization of a nonconvex (smooth) objective function, subject to nonconvex constraints, based on inner convex approximations. This Part II is devoted to the application of the framework to some resource allocation problems in communication networks. In particular, we consider two non-trivial case-study applications, namely: (generalizations of) i) the rate profile maximization in MIMO interference broadcast networks; and the ii) the max-min fair multicast multigroup beamforming problem in a multi-cell environment. We develop a new class of algorithms enjoying the following distinctive features: i) they are \emph{distributed} across the base stations (with limited signaling) and lead to subproblems whose solutions are computable in closed form; and ii) differently from current relaxation-based schemes (e.g., semidefinite relaxation), they are proved to always converge to d-stationary solutions of the aforementioned class of nonconvex problems. Numerical results show that the proposed (distributed) schemes achieve larger worst-case rates (resp. signal-to-noise interference ratios) than state-of-the-art centralized ones while having comparable computational complexity.

In this two-part paper, we propose a general algorithmic framework for the minimization of a nonconvex smooth function subject to nonconvex smooth constraints. The algorithm solves a sequence of (separable) strongly convex problems and mantains feasibility at each iteration. Convergence to a stationary solution of the original nonconvex optimization is established. Our framework is very general and flexible; it unifies several existing Successive Convex Approximation (SCA)-based algorithms such as (proximal) gradient or Newton type methods, block coordinate (parallel) descent schemes, difference of convex functions methods, and improves on their convergence properties. More importantly, and differently from current SCA approaches, it naturally leads to distributed and parallelizable implementations for a large class of nonconvex problems. This Part I is devoted to the description of the framework in its generality. In Part II we customize our general methods to several multi-agent optimization problems, mainly in communications and networking; the result is a new class of (distributed) algorithms that compare favorably to existing ad-hoc (centralized) schemes (when they exist).
