PiGW: A Plug-in Generative Watermarking Framework

Understand

Integrating watermarks into generative images is a critical strategy for protecting intellectual property and enhancing artificial intelligence security.

• This paper proposes Plug-in Generative Watermarking (PiGW) as a general framework for integrating watermarks into generative images.
• More specifically, PiGW embeds watermark information into the initial noise using a learnable watermark embedding network and an adaptive frequency spectrum mask.
• Furthermore, it optimizes training costs by gradually increasing timesteps.
