• Abstract summary: We propose a plug-and-play invisible copyright protection method based on defensive perturbation for DNN-based applications (i.e., style transfer) We project the copyright information to the defensive perturbation with the designed copyright encoder, which is added to the image to be protected. Then, we extract the copyright information from the encoded copyrighted image with the devised copyright decoder.

• Abstract: Wide deployment of deep neural networks (DNNs) based applications (e.g., style transfer, cartoonish), stimulating the requirement of copyright protection of such application's production. Although some traditional visible copyright techniques are available, they would introduce undesired traces and result in a poor user experience. In this paper, we propose a novel plug-and-play invisible copyright protection method based on defensive perturbation for DNN-based applications (i.e., style transfer). Rather than apply the perturbation to attack the DNNs model, we explore the potential utilization of perturbation in copyright protection. Specifically, we project the copyright information to the defensive perturbation with the designed copyright encoder, which is added to the image to be protected. Then, we extract the copyright information from the encoded copyrighted image with the devised copyright decoder. Furthermore, we use a robustness module to strengthen the decoding capability of the decoder toward images with various distortions (e.g., JPEG compression), which may be occurred when the user posts the image on social media. To ensure the image quality of encoded images and decoded copyright images, a loss function was elaborately devised. Objective and subjective experiment results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method. We have also conducted physical world tests on social media (i.e., Wechat and Twitter) by posting encoded copyright images. The results show that the copyright information in the encoded image saved from social media can still be correctly extracted.

  Diffusion-based image generation models can create artistic images that mimic the style of an artist or maliciously edit the original images for fake content. Several attempts have been made to protect the original images from such unauthorized data usage by adding imperceptible perturbations. In this work, we introduce a purification perturbation platform, named IMPRESS, to evaluate the effectiveness of imperceptible perturbations as a protective measure.
