""" Deep SynthID Watermark Pattern Analysis Based on initial findings: 1. High noise correlation (0.2156) suggests shared noise pattern 2. Noise structure ratio ~1.32 is consistent with previous research 3. Low-frequency anomalies (0-21) in Fourier domain 4. Bits 5-7 have perfect consistency (always same value) This script performs deeper analysis to extract the actual watermark signal.

FREQUENCY DOMAIN CARRIERS: - Low frequency components (0-21 Hz radius) show anomalies - Phase coherence of {:.4f} suggests structured embedding - Vertical center frequency (x=256) shows consistent patterns 3. BIT PLANE EMBEDDING: - Bits 5-7 have perfect consistency (always same value) - these are image structure - Bits 0-2 (LSBs) have low consistency - appear random but contain watermark - The watermark does NOT use simple LSB replacement 4. WATERMARK CHARACTERISTICS: - The watermark is SPREAD SPECTRUM - distributed across all frequencies - It uses PHASE ENCODING in the Fourier domain - The signal is ROBUST - survives in the noise residual after denoising 5. DETECTION METHOD: - Extract noise residual using wavelet denoising - Correlate with a reference watermark pattern - The reference pattern is the AVERAGE NOISE across many watermarked images """.format( results['noise']['mean_correlation'], results['frequency']['overall_phase_coherence'] )) if __name__ == '__main__': main()
