Abstract
The rapid advancement of video editing and generative artificial intelligence technologies has made realistic video manipulation increasingly accessible. Although existing datasets have significantly advanced research in deepfake detection, object removal, and video inpainting, they do not adequately model scenarios in which a short manipulated segment is inserted into an otherwise authentic video and the original video continues afterward. In this study, we review representative datasets from the literature, analyze their characteristics, and discuss their limitations with respect to temporally localized realistic manipulation detection. Based on this analysis, we motivate the need for a new dataset specifically designed for authentic videos containing short and highly realistic manipulated intervals. Finally, we evaluate two complementary approaches on our custom-curated test set to establish an initial benchmark for this challenging scenario. The first employs a linear probe on DINOv3 features, assessed under three thresholding strategies. The second leverages DINOv3 features with a consecutive frame similarity-based method to detect temporal manipulation boundaries. Together, these experiments provide an initial benchmark for partially manipulated video detection and highlight the need for content-adaptive thresholding mechanisms. The dataset, code, and supplementary materials are publicly available at this https URL.
