Deep learning-based watermarking has shown strong robustness against non-geometric distortions, yet its performance under geometric transformations remains limited. Such transformations induce two fundamental failure modes: region removal, such as cropping or masking, which eliminates the information carried by removed pixels, and desynchronization, such as scaling or rotation, which misaligns pixel positions and disrupts decoding.
