Dataset Watermarking with Provable Black-Box Detection

The paper introduces a dataset watermarking technique that embeds a watermark by increasing the co‑occurrence of randomly selected word pairs through meaning‑preserving local edits. The watermark can be detected solely from generated text with provable false‑positive control, and experiments on four base models and three datasets show reliable detection (p < 0.01) even when the watermarked data constitutes less than 5% of fine‑tuning tokens. Compared to existing methods, the approach better preserves benchmark utility and semantic integrity.

Watermarking Diffusion Language Models

The paper introduces the first watermark designed specifically for diffusion language models (DLMs), which generate tokens in arbitrary order unlike traditional autoregressive models. It overcomes the challenge of missing prior tokens by applying the watermark in expectation over the context and promoting tokens that strengthen the watermark when used as context. Experiments show a >99% true positive rate with minimal quality loss and comparable robustness to existing autoregressive watermarks.
