--- ## 🎯 Overview -This project reverse-engineers **AI watermarking technologies** by analyzing AI-generated and AI-edited images. We use signal processing techniques to discover watermark structures without access to proprietary neural network encoders/decoders. +This project reverse-engineers **Google's SynthID** watermarking system - the invisible watermark embedded into every image generated by Google Gemini.

The results are striking: -AI-edited images contain **multi-layer watermarks** using both frequency domain (DCT/DFT) and spatial domain (color shifts) embedding techniques. The watermarks are invisible to humans but detectable via statistical analysis. +
