A NeurIPS 2025 Datasets and Benchmarks paper evaluating 15 detectors on 12,832 recaptured videos found Moiré artifacts degraded performance by as much as 25.4%, synthetic Moiré reduced accuracy by 21.4%, and tested demoiréing methods worsened accuracy by up to 16%.
What this does not establish
Maximum degradation is not the expected loss for every detector, device or capture condition.
Counterevidence & uncertainty
Results depend on the selected source datasets, screens, phones, lighting, angles and detector implementations.
What would change the reading
Update with independent replication, additional devices and transformations, and deployed-system error analyses.
