MUMBAI, India, June 24 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202647068791 A) filed by Qualcomm Incorporated on June 01, 2026, for Joint Watermarking Of Neural Network Weights And Output.

Inventors include Mahbub, Upal; Khorramshahi, Pirazh; Nallabolu, Adithya Reddy; and Dane, Gokce.

The application for the patent was published on June 12, 2026, under issue no. 24/2026.

Abstract: A processor-implemented method includes receiving neural network weights from an artificial neural network. The method also includes jointly embedding, by an encoder neural network, a first watermark into the neural network weights of the artificial neural network and a second watermark into an output of the artificial neural network to generate watermarked weights and watermarked output. The method further includes transmitting the watermarked weights and watermarked output. A processor-implemented method by a decoder neural network includes receiving watermarked neural network weights for an artificial neural network. The method also includes receiving a first private key. The method further includes decoding the watermarked neural network weights based on the first private key to obtain a first watermark.
