Specifically, we illustrate the embedding and detecting (invisible) watermarks in generative tabular data, ensuring their resilience against attacks through rigorous statistical analyses and theoretical validation.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\n\u003Cstrong\u003EBio\u003C\/strong\u003E:\u0026nbsp;\u003Cstrong\u003EGuang Cheng\u003C\/strong\u003E\u0026nbsp;is a Professor of Statistics and Data Science at UCLA and leads the Trustworthy AI Lab (\u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/www.stat.ucla.edu\/~guangcheng\/\u0022 rel=\u0022noopener noreferrer\u0022 target=\u0022_blank\u0022\u003Ehttps:\/\/www.stat.ucla.edu\/~guangcheng\/\u003C\/a\u003E).
