# **MsgExtractor - Stable Signature Decoder**

**A version of the Stable Signature decoder from the Meta AI project “Stable Signature: Rooting Watermarks in Latent Diffusion Models.”**

---

##  Model Summary

* **Model Type:** Custom PyTorch Model
* **Task:** Watermark extraction from watermarked images
* **Source:** Derived from [facebookresearch/stable_signature](https://github.com/facebookresearch/stable_signature)
* **License:** **CC-BY-NC 4.0** (Attribution + Non-Commercial)
* **Framework:** PyTorch
* **Weights:** Ported from the original TorchScript decoder
* **Architecture:**

  * `HiddenDecoder(num_blocks, num_bits, channels, redundancy)`
  * `MsgExtractor(hidden_decoder, in_features, out_features)`
* **Status:** Research-only, non-commercial

### **Load the model**

```python
from modeling_msg_extractor import MsgExtractor
import torch

model = MsgExtractor.from_pretrained("ESmike/StableSignatureDecoder")
model.eval()

img = torch.randn(1, 3, 256, 256)   # example input
bits = model(img)
print(bits.shape)
```
