Watermarks and Fingerprints as Soft Bindings for Content Provenance: An Open-Licence Benchmark for Images, Audio and Video
Content-provenance standards such as C2PA let a platform recover a stripped manifest through a soft binding: an invisible watermark read from the content, or a fingerprint looked up in a registry. We benchmarked both families under one protocol, restricted to openly available models whose licences we audited, on public media, with false-match rates calibrated on held-out negatives and source-level bootstrap intervals for performance estimates. For watermarking we evaluated 25 image, 7 audio and 7 video configurations from 12 methods on perceptual quality, robustness, false positives and cost; for fingerprinting, 35 methods on registries of up to 98,985 images, partial edits and adversaria...
