New framework allows image editing while preserving watermarks

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers have developed SafeMark, a new framework designed to allow text-guided editing of watermarked images while preserving the integrity of the watermark. This approach integrates a watermark-decoding loss into the training objective of diffusion editors, ensuring that semantic edits do not compromise the embedded watermark. Evaluations show SafeMark effectively maintains watermark accuracy and quality in semantic edits across various datasets and editing methods, suggesting a path toward trustworthy image provenance in generative editing. AI

IMPACT Enables trustworthy image provenance in generative editing pipelines by ensuring watermarks remain intact during semantic manipulations.

    Are Watermarked Images Editable? SafeMark for Watermark-Preserving Text-Guided Image Editing

    This paper investigates a fundamental yet underexplored question: can watermarked images remain editable without compromising watermark integrity? We propose SafeMark, a framework for watermark-preserving text-guided image manipulation that explicitly integrates watermark integri…
