How Good is Post-Hoc Watermarking With Language Model Rephrasing?

ICML 2026poster

Generation-time text watermarking embeds statistical signals into text for traceability of AI-generated content. We explore post-hoc watermarking where an LLM rewrites existing text while applying generation-time watermarking, to protect copyrighted documents, or detect their use in training or RAG …

Learning to Watermark in the Latent Space of Generative Models

ICML 2026poster

Existing approaches for watermarking AI-generated images often rely on post-hoc methods applied in pixel space, introducing computational overhead and potential visual artifacts. In this work, we explore latent space watermarking and introduce DistSeal, a unified approach for latent watermarking tha…

LCFO: Long Context and Long Form Output Dataset and Benchmarking

ACL 2025finding

This paper presents the Long Context and Form Output (LCFO) benchmark, a novel evaluation framework for assessing gradual summarization and summary expansion capabilities across diverse domains. LCFO consists of long input documents (5k words average length), each of which comes with three summaries…

Transferable Black-Box One-Shot Forging of Watermarks via Image Preference Models

NeurIPS 2025spotlight

Recent years have seen a surge in interest in digital content watermarking techniques, driven by the proliferation of generative models and increased legal pressure. With an ever-growing percentage of AI-generated content available online, watermarking plays an increasingly important role in ensurin…

Aligning Speech Segments Beyond Pure Semantics

ACL 2024findings

Multilingual parallel data for speech-to-speech translation is scarce and expensive to create from scratch. This is all the more true for expressive speech translation, which aims at preserving not only the semantics, but also the overall prosody (e.g. style, emotion, rate-of-speech). Existing corpo…

MuTox: Universal MUltilingual Audio-based TOXicity Dataset and Zero-shot Detector

ACL 2024findings

Research in toxicity detection in natural language processing for the speech modality (audio-based) is quite limited, particularly for languages other than English. To address these limitations and lay the groundwork for truly multilingual audio-based toxicity detection, we introduce MuTox, the firs…

BLASER: A Text-Free Speech-to-Speech Translation Evaluation Metric

ACL 2023long

End-to-End speech-to-speech translation (S2ST) is generally evaluated with text-based metrics. This means that generated speech has to be automatically transcribed, making the evaluation dependent on the availability and quality of automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems. In this paper, we propos…

xSIM++: An Improved Proxy to Bitext Mining Performance for Low-Resource Languages

ACL 2023short

We introduce a new proxy score for evaluating bitext mining based on similarity in a multilingual embedding space: xsim++. In comparison to xsim, this improved proxy leverages rule-based approaches to extend English sentences in any evaluation set with synthetic, hard-to-distinguish examples which m…
