SemStamp: A Semantic Watermark with Paraphrastic Robustness for Text Generation

NAACL 2024long

Existing watermarked generation algorithms employ token-level designs and therefore, are vulnerable to paraphrase attacks. To address this issue, we introduce watermarking on the semantic representation of sentences. We propose SemStamp, a robust sentence-level semantic watermarking algorithm that u…

Stumbling Blocks: Stress Testing the Robustness of Machine-Generated Text Detectors Under Attacks

ACL 2024long

The widespread use of large language models (LLMs) is increasing the demand for methods that detect machine-generated text to prevent misuse. The goal of our study is to stress test the detectors’ robustness to malicious attacks under realistic scenarios. We comprehensively study the robustness of p…

k-SemStamp: A Clustering-Based Semantic Watermark for Detection of Machine-Generated Text

ACL 2024findings

Recent watermarked generation algorithms inject detectable signatures during language generation to facilitate post-hoc detection. While token-level watermarks are vulnerable to paraphrase attacks, SemStamp (Hou et al., 2023) applies watermark on the semantic representation of sentences and demonstr…
