TextSeal: A Localized LLM Watermark for Provenance & Distillation Protection

Tom Sander, Hongyan Chang, Tomáš Souček +10

We introduce TextSeal, a state-of-the-art watermark for large language models. Building on Gumbel-max sampling, TextSeal introduces dual-key generation to restore output diversity,…

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…

Watermark Anything with Localized Messages

Tom Sander, Pierre Fernandez, Alain Durmus +2

Image watermarking methods are not tailored to handle small watermarked areas. This restricts applications in real-world scenarios where parts of the image may come from different…

Detecting Benchmark Contamination Through Watermarking

Tom Sander, Pierre Fernandez, Saeed Mahloujifar +2

Benchmark contamination poses a significant challenge to the reliability of Large Language Models (LLMs) evaluations, as it is difficult to assert whether a model has been trained…
