Audio Deepfake Detection via a Fuzzy Dual-Path Time-Frequency Attention Network.

With the rapid advancement of speech synthesis and voice conversion technologies, audio deepfake techniques have posed serious threats to information security. Existing detection methods often lack robustness when confronted with environmental noise, signal compression, and ambiguous fake features, making it difficult to effectively identify highly concealed fake audio. To address this issue, this paper proposes a Dual-Path Time-Frequency Attention Network (DPTFAN) based on Pythagorean Hesitant Fuzzy Sets (PHFS), which dynamically characterizes the reliability and ambiguity of fake features through uncertainty modeling. It introduces a dual-path attention mechanism in both time and frequency domains to enhance feature representation and discriminative capability. Additionally, a Lightweight Fuzzy Branch Network (LFBN) is designed to achieve explicit enhancement of ambiguous features, improving performance while maintaining computational efficiency. On the ASVspoof 2019 LA dataset, the proposed method achieves an accuracy of 98.94%, and on the FoR (Fake or Real) dataset, it reaches an accuracy of 99.40%, significantly outperforming existing mainstream methods and demonstrating excellent detection performance and robustness.
