Recent advances in content generation technologies (widely known as DeepFakes) along with the online proliferation of manipulated media content render the detection of such manipulations a task of increasing importance. Even though there are many DeepFake detection methods, only a few focus on the impact of dataset preprocessing and the aggregation of frame-level to video-level prediction on model performance. In this paper, we propose a pre-processing step to improve the training data quality and examine its effect on the performance of DeepFake detection. We also propose and evaluate the effect of video-level prediction aggregation approaches. Experimental results show that the proposed pre-processing approach leads to considerable improvements in the performance of detection models, and the proposed prediction aggregation scheme further boosts the detection efficiency in cases where there are multiple faces in a video.
