Robust Watermarking for Compressed Video Using Fingerprints and Its Applications

چکیده
This paper presents a user identification method at H.264 streaming using watermarking with fingerprints. The watermark can efficiently reduce the potential danger of forgery or alteration. Especially a biometric watermark has convenient, economical advantages. The fingerprint watermark can also improve reliability of verification using automated fingerprint identification systems. These algorithms, however, are not robust against common video compression. To overcome this problem, we analyze H.264 compression pattern and extract watermark after restoring damaged watermark using various filters. The proposed algorithm consists of enhancement of a fingerprint image, watermark insertion using discrete wavelet transform and extraction after restoring. The proposed algorithm can achieve robust watermark extraction against H.264 compressed videos.

Robust multiplicative video watermarking using statistical modeling
The present paper is intended to present a robust multiplicative video watermarking scheme. In this regard, the video signal is segmented into 3-D blocks like cubes, and then, the 3-D wavelet transform is applied to each block. The low frequency components of the wavelet coefficients are then used for data embedding to make the process robust against both malicious and unintentional attacks. Th...
متن کاملHybrid-Based Compressed Domain Video Fingerprinting Technique
Video fingerprinting is a newer research area. It is also called “content-based video copy detection” or “content-based video identification” in literature. The goal is to locate videos with segments substantially identical to segments of a query video while tolerating common artifacts in video processing. Its value as a tool to curb piracy and legally monetize contents becomes more and more ap...
متن کاملIntelligent scalable image watermarking robust against progressive DWT-based compression using genetic algorithms
Image watermarking refers to the process of embedding an authentication message, called watermark, into the host image to uniquely identify the ownership. In this paper a novel, intelligent, scalable, robust wavelet-based watermarking approach is proposed. The proposed approach employs a genetic algorithm to find nearly optimal positions to insert watermark. The embedding positions coded as chr...
متن کاملSimulink Based Architecture Prototyping of Compressed Domain MPEG-4 Watermarking
We present a novel algorithm, architecture, and high-level Simulink prototyping for visible watermarking of MPEG-4 video streams. The watermark is inserted in the video stream during compression, resulting in an optimized compression/watermarking algorithm and system. Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) watermarking, due to its robust nature, was chosen in this work to accomplish MPEG-4 video copyr...
متن کاملWatermarking of uncompressed and compressed video
In this paper, methods for embedding additive digital watermarks into uncompressed and compressed video sequences are presented. The basic principle borrows from spread spectrum communications. It consists of addition of an encrypted, pseudo-noise signal to the video that is invisible, statistically unobtrusive, and robust against manipulations. For practical applications, watermarking schemes ...
