AutoMark: Enabling Autoresearch to Discover Better LLM Watermarks

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2609.37310v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: With LLM watermarking being deployed commercially and now required by regulations, improving its reliability and effectiveness has become crucial. Yet, recent progress in the field of LLM watermarking has increasingly been driven by improving details of existing methods, an effort fundamentally limited by the pace of human researchers. In this work, we enable for the first time the autonomous discovery of new distortion-free state-of-the-art watermarking schemes. To enable this, we (i) establish strict criteria to ensure that watermarks are reliable (e.g., they do not have an unexpectedly high false positive rate), (ii) propose rigorous statistical tests to automatically evaluate whether a watermarking scheme satisfies our criteria, and (ii
