On the Information-Theoretic Limits of Latent-Space Watermarking Through Pretrained Generators

Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →

The paper investigates latent‑space watermarking using pretrained generators, where a watermark encoder selects latent inputs based on a message and secret key to produce outputs with a specified conditional distribution. For finite alphabets, it derives inner and outer bounds on the rate–key trade‑off and characterizes the capacity region when the generator’s output uniquely determines the latent distribution. The study extends to jointly Gaussian models, identifies key sufficient statistics, optimally allocates secret‑key resources across modes, and analyzes robustness against regeneration attacks, providing compound capacity results and decay rates for repeated attacks.

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.
