  • 利用自回归生成过程留下的特征痕迹作为溯源信号。
  • 在多种图像生成模型上均实现高精度检测,无需修改生成流程。
  • 适合已发布无标记内容或未集成水印的场景,防伪溯源实用性强。

图像自回归模型(IARs)近期在视觉内容生成方面展现出惊人能力,通过类大语言模型的逐标记预测范式,实现了逼真的图像质量和快速合成。随着这些模型日益普及,可靠的图像数据溯源成为必要,以防止虚假信息传播、检测欺诈行为并追踪有害内容。我们发现,尽管IAR生成的图像在视觉上与真实图像几乎无法区分,但其生成过程会引入独特的输出模式,可作为可靠的溯源信号。基于此,我们提出一种后处理框架,能够鲁棒地检测这些模式以实现溯源追踪。值得注意的是,该框架无需修改生成过程或输出,因此适用于无法使用传统水印方法的场景,例如已发布的无标记内容或未集成水印的模型。我们在多种IAR模型上验证了该方法的有效性,展示了其在自回归图像生成中进行可靠溯源追踪的巨大潜力。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Image autoregressive models (IARs) have recently demonstrated remarkable capabilities in visual content generation, achieving photorealistic quality and rapid synthesis through the next-token prediction paradigm adapted from large language models. As these models become widely accessible, robust data provenance is required to reliably trace IAR-generated images to the source model that synthesized them. This is critical to prevent the spread of misinformation, detect fraud, and attribute harmful content. We find that although IAR-generated images often appear visually identical to real images, their generation process introduces characteristic patterns in their outputs, which serves as a reliable provenance signal for the generated images. Leveraging this, we present a post-hoc framework that enables the robust detection of such patterns for provenance tracing. Notably, our framework does not require modifications of the generative process or outputs. Thereby, it is applicable in contexts where prior watermarking methods cannot be used, such as for generated content that is already published without additional marks and for models that do not integrate watermarking. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach across a wide range of IARs, highlighting its high potential for robust data provenance tracing in autoregressive image generation.
