The capabilities of text generators have grown with the rapid development of Large Language Models (LLM). To prevent potential misuse, the ability to detect whether texts are produced by LLM has become increasingly important. Several related works have attempted to solve this problem using binary classifiers that categorize input text as human-written or LLM-generated. However, these classifiers have been shown to be unreliable. As impactful decisions could be made based on the result of the classification, the text source detection needs to be high-quality. To this end, this paper presents DeepTextMark, a deep learning-based text watermarking method for text source detection. Applying Word2Vec and Sentence Encoding for watermark insertion and a transformer-based classifier for watermark detection, DeepTextMark achieves blindness, robustness, imperceptibility, and reliability simultaneously. As discussed further in the paper, these traits are indispensable for generic text source detection, and the application focus of this paper is on the text generated by LLM. DeepTextMark can be implemented as an "add-on" to existing text generation systems. That is, the method does not require access or modification to the text generation technique. Experiments have shown high imperceptibility, high detection accuracy, enhanced robustness, reliability, and fast running speed of DeepTextMark.
