Abstract:Large Language Models (LLMs) are widely applied across various domains due to their powerful text generation capabilities. While LLM-generated texts often resemble human-written ones, their misuse can lead to significant societal risks. Detecting such texts is an essential technique for mitigating LLM misuse, and many detection methods have shown promising results across different datasets. However, real-world scenarios often involve out-of-domain inputs or adversarial samples, which can affect the performance of detection methods to varying degrees. Furthermore, most existing research has focused on English texts, with limited work addressing Chinese text detection. In this study, we propose EnsemJudge, a robust framework for detecting Chinese LLM-generated text by incorporating tailored strategies and ensemble voting mechanisms. We trained and evaluated our system on a carefully constructed Chinese dataset provided by NLPCC2025 Shared Task 1. Our approach outperformed all baseline methods and achieved first place in the task, demonstrating its effectiveness and reliability in Chinese LLM-generated text detection.

Abstract:While watermarking serves as a critical mechanism for LLM provenance, existing secret-key schemes tightly couple detection with injection, requiring access to keys or provider-side scheme-specific detectors for verification. This dependency creates a fundamental barrier for real-world governance, as independent auditing becomes impossible without compromising model security or relying on the opaque claims of service providers. To resolve this dilemma, we introduce TTP-Detect, a pioneering black-box framework designed for non-intrusive, third-party watermark verification. By decoupling detection from injection, TTP-Detect reframes verification as a relative hypothesis testing problem. It employs a proxy model to amplify watermark-relevant signals and a suite of complementary relative measurements to assess the alignment of the query text with watermarked distributions. Extensive experiments across representative watermarking schemes, datasets and models demonstrate that TTP-Detect achieves superior detection performance and robustness against diverse attacks.
