Detect Early, Escalate Rarely: Anytime Detection of AI-Generated Video from the Compressed Bitstream

Mert Onur Cakiroglu, Mehmet Dalkilic, Hasan Kurban

Detectors for AI-generated video are evaluated offline. A clip is decoded to pixels and scored once, increasingly by a large vision-language model. Detection, however, is deployed…

The Spectrum Is Not Enough: When Context Helps Time-Series Forecasting

Mert Onur Cakiroglu, Mehmet Dalkilic, Hasan Kurban

The paper shows that indices based only on a time series' power spectrum cannot predict the benefit of adding contextual information such as longer lookbacks, retrieval modules, or…

LGQ: Learnable Geometric Quantization for Image Tokenization

Idil Bilge Altun, Mert Onur Cakiroglu, Elham Buxton +2

Recent collapse-free quantizers such as FSQ achieve stable training by replacing the learnable codebook with an engineered geometry: a fixed scalar grid whose structure is dictated…

Auditing Generalization in AI-Generated Video Detection: A Six-Control Protocol and the VidAudit Toolkit

Mert Onur Cakiroglu, Zhihe Lu, Mehmet Dalkilic +1

AI-generated video detection benchmarks such as GenVidBench and AIGVDBench are the de facto leaderboards, yet most evaluation protocols leave uncontrolled confounds that can inflat…

Topical Phase Transitions in Artificial Intelligence Research: Large-Scale Evidence and an Early-Warning Signature for Emerging Topics

Rasul Khanbayov, Hasan Kurban

Do research topics in artificial intelligence grow gradually, or do they advance through abrupt, detectable jumps? Analyzing 80,814 accepted main-track papers from five premier AI…

Temporal Realism Evaluation of Generated Videos Using Compressed-Domain Motion Vectors

Mert Onur Cakiroglu, Idil Bilge Altun, Zhihe Lu +2

Temporal realism remains a central weakness of current generative video models, as most evaluation metrics prioritize spatial appearance and offer limited sensitivity to motion. We…
