چکیده
In this work we propose a novel H.264/CAVLC structure-preserving substitution watermarking algorithm. The proposed watermarking algorithm enables extremely efficient watermarking by simple bit substitutions. Furthermore our watermarking algorithm can be applied in applications scenarios, that require exact structure-preservation. The quality and robustness of the approach are in depth evaluated and analyzed, the quality evaluation is backed up by subjective evaluations. Comparison to the state-of-the-art indicates a superior performance of our watermarking algorithm.

H.264/AVC substitution watermarking: a CAVLC example
This work addresses the watermarking of an entropy coded H.264/AVC video stream. The phrase Substitution Watermarking is used to imply that the application of the watermark to the stream is accomplished by substituting an original block of bits in the entropy-encoded stream with an alternative block of bits. This substitution is done for many different blocks of bits to embed the watermark. Thi...
متن کاملWatermarking in H.264/AVC Compressed Domain Using CAVLC
A new real-time watermarking technique based on H.264/AVC video standard is proposed. The algorithm works in the compressed domain by embedding watermark bits into quantized DCT coefficients of 4×4 blocks of the I-frame during the Context-based Adaptive Variable Length Coding (CAVLC) process. CAVLC offers a lower computational complexity which is efficient to the algorithm. During watermark ext...
متن کاملAuthentication of H.264 streams by direct watermarking of CAVLC blocks
In this work we report on the first H.264 authentication watermarker that operates directly in the bitstream with no video decoding or partial decompression. The main contribution of the work is identification of a watermarkable code space in H.264 protocol. The algorithm creates "exceptions" in H.264 code space that only the decoder understands while keeping the bitstream syntax compliant The ...
متن کاملVLC Table Prediction Algorithm for CAVLC in H.264 Using the Characteristics of Mode Information
The most recent H.264 video coding standard adopted context-based adaptive variable length coding (CAVLC) as the entropy coding tool. By combining adaptive variable length coding (VLC) with context modeling, we can achieve a better coding performance. However, CAVLC in H.264 has a problem that correctness of VLC table prediction is low. In this paper, we propose a new VLC table prediction algor...
متن کاملAn Efficient Table Prediction Scheme for CAVLC in H.264
The most recent video coding standard H.264 has adopted context-based adaptive variable-length coding (CAVLC) as the entropy coding tool in the baseline profile. By combining an adaptive variable-length coding technique with context modeling, we can achieve a high degree of redundancy reduction. However, CAVLC in H.264 has a weakness that the correct prediction rate of the variable-length codin...
