VMD-FACT: A New Video Dataset and MLLM-based method for Detecting Realistic AI-Generated Video Misinformation

The rapid evolution of generative AI, including such models as Sora, has intensified the threat of video misinformation. A critical challenge in detecting these AI-generated video misinformation lies in a fundamental disconnect between existing datasets and practical deception tactics. Current datasets often disrupt cross-modal consistency through editing techniques, resulting in unrealistic and easily detectable artifacts. By contrast, generative video misinformation strives for semantic consistency across modalities to remain realism. To address this gap, we introduce RAVM: the first Realistic AI-Generated Video Misinformation Detection Dataset. Unlike existing Video Misinformation Detection (VMD) datasets that are limited to single-source manipulations, RAVM encompasses multiple manipulation sources-Claim, Video, Audio, and Cross-Modal Manipulation-each incorporating diverse manipulation techniques to generate realistic AI-generated video misinformation. To achieve this, we introduce an agent-driven framework for generating realistic video misinformation. Furthermore, we propose an IEEG model that represents multimodal evidence, fact-checking results, and their dependencies as an evidence graph for interpretable detection of AI-generated video misinformation. Extensive experiments on RAVM reveal the vulnerability of existing Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) in detecting AI-generated video misinformation, while the proposed IEEG achieves stateof-the-art performance on RAVM. The dataset is publicly
