Abstract
Large language models are transforming many industries with their text generation abilities. However, their outputs can be easily tampered with, creating serious risks in critical areas such as food safety reporting. To protect the integrity and traceability of AI-generated content, this paper introduces ToSS (Token Oriented Repartitioning and Strategic Selection), a reliable authentication method using adaptive dual watermarking. The key innovation of ToSS is its dual watermark encoding approach that divides vocabulary tokens into black and white sublists, enabling precise bit-level embedding of traceability information. Additionally, an entropy adaptive mechanism dynamically selects text regions with high prediction uncertainty for watermark insertion, maintaining text fluency and factual accuracy while ensuring reliable traceability. Experiments on multiple datasets, including food domain texts, demonstrate that ToSS achieves leading performance in both watermark capacity and decoding accuracy.
