CASIAL: Geometric Distortion Robust Image Watermarking

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.

MarkNull: Model-Agnostic Watermark Removal in AI-Generated Images via On-Manifold Latent Manipulation

arXiv:2608. 10166v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Digital watermarking has emerged as a critical technique for provenance and copyright attribution in AI-generated imagery, yet its robustness against realistic, model-agnostic removal attacks remains poorly explored.

Geometric Stability: The Missing Axis of Representations

arXiv:2601. 09173v5 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Representational similarity analysis and related methods compare the internal geometries of neural networks, but they measure only alignment between spaces, leaving a blind spot -- whether a representation's structure is reliably recoverable, not merely similar.

REDI-Match: Rotation-Equivariant Distillation for Efficient and Robust Dense Matching

Vision Foundation Models (VFMs) have significantly advanced dense feature matching, yet severe in-plane rotation remains a critical challenge. Existing solutions face a fundamental dilemma: data-driven methods require inefficient parameter scaling to implicitly learn rotations, whereas strictly equivariant networks lack the semantic capacity of modern VFMs.
