Abstract
Various aspects of the subject technology relate to systems, methods, and machine-readable media for watermarking an identification mark on an image. A system may provide an image to a trained convolutional neural network to generate a saliency map. The saliency map includes saliency information which identifies a salient region of the image and a non-salient region of the image. The system may be configured to determine a level of aggressiveness based on a weight model. The weight model includes information regarding a popularity of the image, a value of the image, a geographic location of the image, and a user account associated with the image. The system is configured to overlap the watermark with one of the identified salient region and the non-salient region based on the level of aggressiveness to generate a watermarked image.
