Detecting digital face manipulation has attracted extensive attention due to fake media's potential risks to the public. However, recent advances have been able to reduce the forgery signals to a low magnitude. Decomposition, which reversibly decomposes an image into several constituent elements, is a promising way to highlight the hidden forgery details. In this paper, we investigate a novel 3D decomposition based method that considers a face image as the production of the interaction between 3D geometry and lighting environment. Specifically, we disentangle a face image into four graphics components including 3D shape, lighting, common texture, and identity texture, which are respectively constrained by 3D morphable model, harmonic reflectance illumination, and PCA texture model. Meanwhile, we build a fine-grained morphing network to predict 3D shapes with pixel-level accuracy to reduce the noise in the decomposed elements. Moreover, we propose a composition search strategy that enables an automatic construction of an architecture to mine forgery clues from forgery-relevant components. Extensive experiments validate that the decomposed components highlight forgery artifacts, and the searched architecture extracts discriminative forgery features. Thus, our method achieves the state-of-the-art performance.
