Refined Detection for Gumbel Watermarking

Year: 2026
Type: preprint
Abstract: We propose a simple detection mechanism for the Gumbel watermarking scheme proposed by Aaronson (2022). The new mechanism is proven to be near-optimal in a problem-dependent sense among all model-agnostic watermarking schemes under the assumption that the next-token distribution is sampled i.i.d.
