Subtle Injection for Ground-truth Inference of LLM Training Data

Announce Type: new Abstract: As large language models (LLMs) are increasingly trained on scraped web corpora without authorisation, content owners require forensic methods to prove that their documents were included in a model's training set. We propose \textbf{SIGIL} (\textbf{S}ubtle \textbf{I}njection for \textbf{G}round-truth \textbf{I}nference of \textbf{L}LM training data), a framework that embeds imperceptible \emph{canary sequences} into protected text and code such that any LLM...
