Abstract
We aim to protect text generation APIs in this work. Previous LW methods compromised text quality and made watermarks easy to detect through error analysis due to not considering polysemy. To fit this, we propose meaning-preserving lexical substitution method that considers the target word’s correct meaning in context x. This enables high-confidence identification while making watermarks more invisible.
期刊介绍:
Frontiers of Computer Science aims to provide a forum for the publication of peer-reviewed papers to promote rapid communication and exchange between computer scientists. The journal publishes research papers and review articles in a wide range of topics, including: architecture, software, artificial intelligence, theoretical computer science, networks and communication, information systems, multimedia and graphics, information security, interdisciplinary, etc. The journal especially encourages papers from new emerging and multidisciplinary areas, as well as papers reflecting the international trends of research and development and on special topics reporting progress made by Chinese computer scientists.
