By leveraging neural rendering technologies based on NeRF and 3DGS, we create a wide array of realistic 3D scene representations and generate a multitude of synthesized 2D images from different perspectives. Moreover, through the combination of generative models with these advanced neural rendering methods, we generate highly sophisticated but fake images that incorporate combined artifacts. Unlike other existing datasets that largely focus on fake images generated by traditional generative models such as GANs or diffusion models, our NeuroRenderedFake dataset significantly extends the boundaries of a much-needed dataset for sophisticated fake image detection. This benchmark consists of over 2 million images, i.e., 512,972 authentic images and 1,653,881 highly sophisticated fake images. Therefore, it can serve as the largest collection of diverse images generated through advanced synthesis and neural rendering techniques. This work is expected to have a significant positive societal impact, particularly benefiting the forensic community and media outlets. Our method can enhance the accurate and timely identification of real-look-like but fake images that are often found in our mailboxes or social media platforms. The development of accurate techniques to detect these images is crucial for addressing concerns related to security, privacy, and preserving harmony within our community.
