  --batch-size 128

CPU Optimization

Optimize CPU performance when GPU is unavailable:

# Set number of CPU threads
python main.py train --num-workers 8 --pin-memory --real-dir data/processed/real --fake-dir data/processed/fake

Memory Optimization

Manage memory usage for efficient processing:

Batch Size Adjustment

Adjust batch size based on available memory:

Hardware	Recommended Batch Size
CPU	8-16
GPU 4GB VRAM	16-32
GPU 8GB VRAM	32-64
GPU 16GB+ VRAM	64-128

# Smaller batch size for limited memory
python main.py train --batch-size 8 --real-dir data/processed/real --fake-dir data/processed/fake

# Larger batch size for high-end systems
python main.py train --batch-size 128 --real-dir data/processed/real --fake-dir data/processed/fake

Gradient Accumulation

Train with large effective batch sizes on limited memory:

python main.py train \
  --batch-size 16 \
  --gradient-accumulation 4 \
  --real-dir data/processed/real \

  --prune-ratio 0.3

🔨 Troubleshooting

Common Issues and Solutions

This section addresses frequently encountered problems:

🔄 Installation Issues

CUDA Compatibility Problems

Symptoms: PyTorch installation succeeds but CUDA is not detected or crashes occur during GPU operations.

Solution:

Ensure compatible versions:

# Check CUDA version
nvcc --version

# Install compatible PyTorch version
pip install torch==2.0.1+cu118 torchvision==0.15.2+cu118 -f https://download.pytorch.org/whl/torch_stable.html

Verify installation:

python -c "import torch; print('CUDA available:', torch.cuda.is_available())"

Package Dependency Conflicts

Symptoms: pip install fails with dependency conflicts.

Solution:

Create a fresh virtual environment:

python -m venv fresh_env
source fresh_env/bin/activate

Install dependencies one by one:

pip install numpy
pip install torch torchvision
pip install -r requirements.txt

Python Version Compatibility Issues

Symptoms: Errors occur when installing dependencies with newer Python versions (e.g., Python 3.13), especially with numpy and pkgutil packages.

Solution:

Create a virtual environment with Python 3.9-3.10:

# First check available Python versions
which -a python3
python3 -V
/usr/bin/python3 -V  # This might show the system Python version

# Create a virtual environment with compatible versions
/usr/bin/python3 -m venv imgvenv
source imgvenv/bin/activate

Verify Python version:

python -V  # This should show a compatible version, e.g., Python 3.9.x

Install dependencies:
```
pip install -r requirements.txt
```

Note: The project dependencies are most compatible with Python 3.8-3.10. Newer versions might require adjustments to dependency versions or waiting for package updates to support new Python versions.

🖥️ Runtime Issues

Port Occupation on macOS

Symptoms: Web application fails to start with "Address already in use" error.

Solution:

On macOS, port 5000 is typically used by the AirPlay service, use a different port (like 8080):
```
python main.py web --model-path models/saved/best_model.pth --model-name cnn --port 8080
```
Or find and kill the process using port 5000 (not recommended, may affect system services):
```
sudo lsof -i :5000
kill -9 <PID>
```

You can also specify a local-only interface when starting the web application:

python main.py web --model-path models/saved/best_model.pth --model-name cnn --port 5000 --host 127.0.0.1

Note: In macOS Monterey and newer versions, port 5000 is reserved for the AirPlay Receiver service. To use the default port, disable the AirPlay Receiver in system settings or choose an alternative port.

Out of Memory (OOM) Errors

Symptoms: Training crashes with "CUDA out of memory" or system memory errors.

Solution:

Reduce batch size:

python main.py train --batch-size 4 --real-dir data/processed/real --fake-dir data/processed/fake

Use gradient accumulation:

python main.py train --batch-size 2 --gradient-accumulation 8 --real-dir data/processed/real --fake-dir data/processed/fake

Use a smaller model:

python main.py train --model resnet18 --real-dir data/processed/real --fake-dir data/processed/fake

Empty Dataset Errors

Symptoms: Training fails with "dataset is empty" errors.

Solution:

Verify directory paths:

ls -la data/processed/real data/processed/fake

Check file formats (should be .jpg, .jpeg, or .png):

find data/processed/real -type f | grep -v -E '\.(jpg|jpeg|png)$'

Generate test data to verify system:
```
python generate_test_images.py
```

🏋️‍♂️ Training Issues

Poor Model Performance

Symptoms: Model achieves low accuracy or doesn't improve during training.

Solution:

Increase training duration:

python main.py train --epochs 50 --real-dir data/processed/real --fake-dir data/processed/fake

Try different models:

python main.py train --model efficientnet_b0 --pretrained --real-dir data/processed/real --fake-dir data/processed/fake

Ensure balanced dataset:

python main.py analyze-dataset --real-dir data/processed/real --fake-dir data/processed/fake

Enable data augmentation:

python main.py train --augmentation --real-dir data/processed/real --fake-dir data/processed/fake

Training Plateaus

Symptoms: Validation accuracy stops improving early in training.

Solution:

Adjust learning rate:

python main.py train --learning-rate 0.0001 --real-dir data/processed/real --fake-dir data/processed/fake

Implement learning rate scheduling:

python main.py train --scheduler cosine --real-dir data/processed/real --fake-dir data/processed/fake

Try different optimizers:

python main.py train --optimizer adamw --real-dir data/processed/real --fake-dir data/processed/fake

Overfitting

Symptoms: Training accuracy is high but validation accuracy is low.

Solution:

Add regularization:

python main.py train --weight-decay 0.001 --dropout 0.3 --real-dir data/processed/real --fake-dir data/processed/fake

Use early stopping:

python main.py train --early-stopping --patience 5 --real-dir data/processed/real --fake-dir data/processed/fake

Increase dataset size or diversity.

📝 Notes & Best Practices

Practical Recommendations

Dataset Quality

The quality of training data directly impacts model performance:

Size: 1,000+ images per class minimum for good performance
Balance: Maintain equal numbers of real and fake images
Diversity: Include various image sources, lighting conditions, and content
Authenticity: Ensure "real" images are truly unmanipulated
Realism: Create forgeries that represent realistic manipulation methods
Metadata: Preserve relevant metadata (camera model, editing software, etc.)

Model Selection

Choose models based on your specific requirements:

Priority	Recommended Model
Speed	`cnn` or `resnet18`
Accuracy	`efficientnet_b0` or `xception`
Balance	`resnet18` or `efficientnet_b0`
Limited Data	`cnn` with heavy augmentation
Production	Ensemble of multiple models

Deployment Considerations

For real-world deployment:

Security: Implement rate limiting and file validation
Scalability: Use load balancing for high-traffic applications
Privacy: Consider local processing for sensitive materials
Transparency: Communicate confidence levels and limitations
Updates: Regularly retrain with new forgery techniques
Fallback: Have human review for critical or ambiguous cases

Detection Limitations

Be aware of system limitations:

Detection accuracy varies by forgery type and quality
Advanced AI-generated images may require specialized models
Very small manipulations might be missed
Results should be treated as probabilistic, not definitive
System should be part of a broader verification strategy
