Existing watermark attacks typically rely on predefined signal-processing operations or locally constrained restoration networks, making it difficult to capture the long-range dependencies of globally distributed watermark signals and resulting in an unfavorable trade-off between removal effectiveness and visual fidelity. In this paper, we propose SPFM-Net, a semantic-prior-guided and frequency-constrained Mamba framework for invisible watermark attack.
arXiv:2606. 16799v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Existing vision-language model (VLM)-based AI-generated image quality assessment (AIGIQA) methods suffer from a fundamental semantic-distortion dimensional conflict: monolithic representations optimized for semantic discrimination inherently entangle compositional understanding with low-level perceptual sensitivity, rendering them blind to fine-grained quality degradations.
