Learning to Watermark in the Latent Space of Generative Models
Sylvestre-Alvise Rebuffi, Tuan Tran, Valeriu Lacatusu +6
Existing approaches for watermarking AI-generated images often rely on post-hoc methods applied in pixel space, introducing computational overhead and potential visual artifacts. I…
How Good is Post-Hoc Watermarking With Language Model Rephrasing?
Pierre Fernandez, Tom Sander, Hady Elsahar +6
Generation-time text watermarking embeds statistical signals into text for traceability of AI-generated content. We explore *post-hoc watermarking* where an LLM rewrites existing t…
Pixel Seal: Adversarial-only training for invisible image and video watermarking
Tomáš Souček, Pierre Fernandez, Hady Elsahar +5
Invisible watermarking is essential for tracing the provenance of digital content. However, training state-of-the-art models remains notoriously difficult, with current approaches…
Transferable Black-Box One-Shot Forging of Watermarks via Image Preference Models
Tomáš Souček, Sylvestre-Alvise Rebuffi, Pierre Fernandez +5
Recent years have seen a surge in interest in digital content watermarking techniques, driven by the proliferation of generative models and increased legal pressure. With an ever-g…
We Can Hide More Bits: The Unused Watermarking Capacity in Theory and in Practice
Aleksandar Petrov, Pierre Fernandez, Tomáš Souček +1
Despite rapid progress in deep learning-based image watermarking, the capacity of current robust methods remains limited to the scale of only a few hundred bits. Such plateauing pr…
Geometric Image Synchronization with Deep Watermarking
Pierre Fernandez, Tomáš Souček, Nikola Jovanović +5
Synchronization is the task of estimating and inverting geometric transformations (e.g., crop, rotation) applied to an image. This work introduces SyncSeal, a bespoke watermarking…
