通过分析文本生成轨迹差异,提升AI文本检测精度。
Latent Trajectory Discrimination for AI-Generated Text Detection

- 将文本生成视为动态轨迹,建模其在隐空间的演化过程
- 在三个基准上优于现有方法,跨模型域表现稳定
- 适合关注生成式文本检测新方向的研究者
现有AI生成文本检测方法通常将文档视为静态对象,基于全局统计或压缩嵌入进行判断。但这一视角忽略了自回归生成的本质动态性——内容在隐空间中逐步演化。本文将检测任务重新定义为区分生成轨迹的问题,不依赖静态表示,而是建模文本表征在序列中的演变过程。为此提出几何轨迹与对比学习框架(GTCL):将文档划分为有序局部单元,分别编码为嵌入,并构建具有结构化的序列级表示;再对这些轨迹应用对比学习,以捕捉自回归生成相关的几何规律。在三个不同基准及多种方法上的评估表明,GTCL始终优于基线,说明显式建模序列动态可提供鲁棒的判别信号,跨越模型与领域。结果表明,轨迹差异建模能有效提升检测性能,为此前未被充分探索的动态检测方向提供了新思路。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Most existing approaches to AI-Generated Text Detection (AIGTD) treat documents as static objects and base their decisions on aggregate statistics or globally compressed embeddings. However, this perspective overlooks the inherently dynamic nature of autoregressive generation, where content evolves progressively through the latent space. In this paper, we reformulate AIGTD as the problem of distinguishing between latent generation trajectories. Instead of relying on static representations, we model how textual representations evolve across the sequence. To this end, we propose Geometric Trajectory and Contrastive Learning (GTCL), a framework that segments the document into ordered local units, encodes each unit in an embedding space, and constructs a structured and sequence-level representation. GTCL then applies contrastive learning to these trajectories to learn geometric regularities associated with the autoregressive generation. Evaluations performed on three different benchmarks and several approaches show that GTCL outperforms detection baselines consistently, which implies that explicitly modeling sequential dynamics provides robust discriminative signals across models and domains. These results suggest that modeling trajectory differences could improve detection and open up a dynamic direction that has been underexplored in previous AIGTD literature.
