A New Approach to Automatic Generation of Tile Mosaic Images for Data Hiding Applications
نویسندگان
چکیده
A new approach to automatic generation of tile mosaic images containing square tiles suitable for the information hiding purpose is proposed. The generated tile mosaic image contains no overlapping tiles, and the orientations of the tiles are deterministic. The properties of the generated image allow simple tile feature detection, and result in efficient data embedding and extraction. The orientations of the tiles are utilized to embed data, and in this work an invisible watermark is embedded for the copyright protection purpose. Experimental results demonstrate that the watermark is still recognizable with malicious damages to the copyrighted image.

Generating Classic Mosaics with Graph Cuts
Classic mosaic is an old and durable art form. Generating artificial classic mosaics from digital images is an interesting problem that has attracted attention in recent years. Previous approaches to mosaic generation are largely based on heuristics, and therefore it is harder to analyse, predict and improve their performance. In addition, previous methods have a number of disadvantages, such a...
متن کاملArtificial Mosaic Generation with Gradient Vector Flow and Tile Cutting
Mosaics are images obtained by cementing together small colored fragments and are an ancient example of discrete primitive-based images. Artificial mosaics are illustrations composed by a set of small images called “tiles” that tessellate a source image aiming to reproduce the original visual information in a mosaic-like style. In this paper, we propose a mosaic generation technique based on gr...
متن کاملAutomatic Interpretation of UltraCam Imagery by Combination of Support Vector Machine and Knowledge-based Systems
With the development of digital sensors, an increasing number of high-resolution images are available. Interpretation of these images is not possible manually, which necessitates seeking for practical, fast and automatic solutions to solve the environmental and location-based management problems. The land cover classification using high-resolution imagery is a difficult process because of the c...
متن کاملImproving security of double random phase encoding with chaos theory using fractal images
This study presents a new method based on the combination of cryptography and information hiding methods. Firstly, the image is encoded by the Double Random Phase Encoding (DRPE) technique. The real and imaginary parts of the encoded image are subsequently embedded into an enlarged normalized host image. DRPE demands two random phase mask keys to decode the decrypted image at the destination. T...
متن کاملA PRACTICAL APPROACH TO REAL-TIME DYNAMIC BACKGROUND GENERATION BASED ON A TEMPORAL MEDIAN FILTER
In many computer vision applications, segmenting and extraction of moving objects in video sequences is an essential task. Background subtraction, by which each input image is subtracted from the reference image, has often been used for this purpose. In this paper, we offer a novel background-subtraction technique for real-time dynamic background generation using color images that are taken fro...
