Deep Learning (DL) has been effectively utilized in various complicated challenges in healthcare, industry, and academia for various purposes, including thyroid diagnosis, lung nodule recognition, computer vision, large data analytics, and human‐level control. Nevertheless, developments in digital technology have been used to produce software that poses a threat to democracy, national security, and confidentiality. Deepfake is one of those DL‐powered apps that has lately surfaced. So, deepfake systems can create fake images primarily by replacement of scenes or images, movies, and sounds that humans cannot tell apart from real ones. Various technologies have brought the capacity to change a synthetic speech, image, or video to our fingers. Furthermore, video and image frauds are now so convincing that it is hard to distinguish between false and authentic content with the naked eye. It might result in various issues and ranging from deceiving public opinion to using doctored evidence in a court. For such considerations, it is critical to have technologies that can assist us in discerning reality. This study gives a complete assessment of the literature on deepfake detection strategies using DL‐based algorithms. We categorize deepfake detection methods in this work based on their applications, which include video detection, image detection, audio detection, and hybrid multimedia detection. The objective of this paper is to give the reader a better knowledge of (1) how deepfakes are generated and identified, (2) the latest developments and breakthroughs in this realm, (3) weaknesses of existing security methods, and (4) areas requiring more investigation and consideration. The results suggest that the Conventional Neural Networks (CNN) methodology is the most often employed DL method in publications. According to research, the majority of the articles are on the subject of video deepfake detection. The majority of the articles focused on enhancing only one parameter, with the accuracy parameter receiving the most attention.This article is categorized under: Technologies > Machine Learning Algorithmic Development > Multimedia Application Areas > Science and Technology

The Internet of Drones (IoD) is built on the Internet of Things (IoT) by replacing “Things” with “Drones” while retaining incomparable features. Because of its vital applications, IoD technologies have attracted much attention in recent years. Nevertheless, gaining the necessary degree of public acceptability of IoD without demonstrating safety and security for human life is exceedingly difficult. In addition, intrusion detection systems (IDSs) in IoD confront several obstacles because of the dynamic network architecture, particularly in balancing detection accuracy and efficiency. To increase the performance of the IoD network, we proposed a blockchain-based radial basis function neural networks (RBFNNs) model in this article. The proposed method can improve data integrity and storage for smart decision-making across different IoDs. We discussed the usage of blockchain to create decentralized predictive analytics and a model for effectively applying and sharing deep learning (DL) methods in a decentralized fashion. We also assessed the model using a variety of data sets to demonstrate the viability and efficacy of implementing the blockchain-based DL technique in IoD contexts. The findings showed that the suggested model is an excellent option for developing classifiers while adhering to the constraints placed by network intrusion detection. Furthermore, the proposed model can outperform the cutting-edge methods in terms of specificity, F1, recall, precision, and accuracy.
