Learning to Evade: Adaptive Attacks on Audio Watermarking (opens in new tab)

Advances in generative audio have intensified copyright concerns, making audio watermarking increasingly important for asserting ownership. However, existing audio watermarking methods are vulnerable to adversarial attacks. We find that watermark decoder message probabilities follow normal distributions, a property exploited by defenses to detect manipulations. This paper introduces an adaptive audio watermark attack method (AWM) designed to b...
