Fundamental Trade-Offs in Multi-Bit Watermarking of Stochastic Processes

Haiyun He, Yepeng Liu, Zhuoer Shen +3

We study multi-bit watermarking for data generated by stochastic processes, where a hidden message is embedded during sampling and must be decodable by an authorized detector that…

On the Hardness of Unsupervised Domain Adaptation: Optimal Learners and Information-Theoretic Perspective

Zhiyi Dong, Zixuan Liu, Yongyi Mao

This paper studies the hardness of unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) under covariate shift. We model the uncertainty that the learner faces by a distribution in the ground-t…

Generalization in Federated Learning: A Conditional Mutual Information Framework

Ziqiao Wang, Cheng Long, Yongyi Mao

Federated learning (FL) is a widely adopted privacy-preserving distributed learning framework, yet its generalization performance remains less explored compared to centralized lear…

Distributional Information Embedding: A Framework for Multi-bit Watermarking

Haiyun He, Yepeng Liu, Ziqiao Wang +2

This paper introduces a novel problem, distributional information embedding, motivated by the practical demands of multi-bit watermarking for large language models (LLMs). Unlike t…

Generalization Bounds via Conditional -Information

Ziqiao Wang, Yongyi Mao

In this work, we introduce novel information-theoretic generalization bounds using the conditional -information framework, an extension of the traditional conditional mutual inf…

Theoretically Grounded Framework for LLM Watermarking: A Distribution-Adaptive Approach

Haiyun He, Yepeng Liu, Ziqiao Wang +2

Watermarking has emerged as a crucial method to distinguish AI-generated text from human-created text. Current watermarking approaches often lack formal optimality guarantees or ad…

Sample-Conditioned Hypothesis Stability Sharpens Information-Theoretic Generalization Bounds

Ziqiao Wang, Yongyi Mao

We present new information-theoretic generalization guarantees through the a novel construction of the "neighboring-hypothesis" matrix and a new family of stability notions termed…
