用隐形指纹保护大模型版权,几乎不损耗性能

EditMF: Drawing an Invisible Fingerprint for Your Large Language Models

  • 从加密知识库提取语义连贯三元组作为指纹
  • 仅需一次黑盒查询即可验证,性能损失接近零
  • 适合需要低成本版权保护的模型开发者

训练大语言模型(LLMs)成本高昂,保护知识产权至关重要。现有基于后门的方法存在隐蔽性差、效率低的问题。为此,我们提出EditMF,一种无需训练的指纹嵌入范式,实现高度隐蔽且计算开销极小的指纹注入。所有权比特被映射为来自加密人工知识库(如虚拟作者-小说-主角事实)的紧凑语义连贯三元组。通过因果追踪定位影响每个三元组的最小层集,并采用零空间更新注入指纹,不干扰无关知识。验证仅需一次黑盒查询,当模型返回预嵌入的主角时即成功。在LLaMA和Qwen系列上的实验表明,EditMF兼具高隐蔽性与极低性能损失,鲁棒性远超LoRA基指纹方法,接近SFT嵌入水平。大量实验验证了其在安全模型所有权验证中的有效性与低开销特性。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Training large language models (LLMs) is resource-intensive and expensive, making protecting intellectual property (IP) for LLMs crucial. Recently, embedding fingerprints into LLMs has emerged as a prevalent method for establishing model ownership. However, existing back-door-based methods suffer from limited stealth and efficiency. To simultaneously address these issues, we propose EditMF, a training-free fingerprinting paradigm that achieves highly imperceptible fingerprint embedding with minimal computational overhead. Ownership bits are mapped to compact, semantically coherent triples drawn from an encrypted artificial knowledge base (e.g., virtual author-novel-protagonist facts). Causal tracing localizes the minimal set of layers influencing each triple, and a zero-space update injects the fingerprint without perturbing unrelated knowledge. Verification requires only a single black-box query and succeeds when the model returns the exact pre-embedded protagonist. Empirical results on LLaMA and Qwen families show that EditMF combines high imperceptibility with negligible model's performance loss, while delivering robustness far beyond LoRA-based fingerprinting and approaching that of SFT embeddings. Extensive experiments demonstrate that EditMF is an effective and low-overhead solution for secure LLM ownership verification.
