Perceptual watermarking of non i.i.d. signals based on wide spread spectrum using side information

چکیده
ABSTRACT The theoretical foundations of data hiding have been revealed by formulating the problem as message communication over a noisy channel, i.e. the host document. In light of this definition, some solutions have been proposed. Unfortunately, the performances of those methods are limited due to interference with the host signal. Considering spread spectrum information hiding with non i.i.d. Gaussian host signals and weighted distortion measures, we propose in this paper a game-theoretic resolution of the problem using side information.

Practical watermarking scheme based on wide spread spectrum and game theory
In this paper, we consider the implementation of robust watermarking scheme for non i.i.d. Gaussian signals and distortion based on perceptual metrics. We consider this problem as a communication problem and formulated it as a game between an attacker and an embedder in order to establish its theoretical performance. We first show that known parallel Gaussian channels technique does not lead to...
متن کاملOptimum decoder for multiplicative spread spectrum image watermarking with Laplacian modeling
This paper investigates the multiplicative spread spectrum watermarking method for the image. The information bit is spreaded into middle-frequency Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) coefficients of each block of an image using a generated pseudo-random sequence. Unlike the conventional signal modeling, we suppose that both signal and noise are distributed with Laplacian distribution, because the ...
متن کاملWatermark Embedding and Detection
The popularity of Internet access has enabled the wide spread of digital multimedia contents in the form of image, video and audio; however, it also makes unauthorized copying and distribution easier. Researchers from both the industry and the academy have been trying to address this dilemma by watermarking techniques. Watermarking, as a prospective weapon against piracy, embeds ownership infor...
متن کاملWide spread spectrum watermarking with side information and interference cancellation
Nowadays, a popular method used for additive watermarking is wide spread spectrum. It consists in adding a spread signal into the host document. This signal is obtained by the sum of a set of carrier vectors, which are modulated by the bits to be embedded. To extract these embedded bits, weighted correlations between the watermarked document and the carriers are computed. Unfortunately, even wi...
متن کاملImproved polynomial detectors for side-informed watermarking
In spread-spectrum watermarking, the watermarked document is obtained from the addition of an attenuated watermark signal to a cover multimedia document. A traditional strategy consists of optimising the detector for a given embedding function. In general, this leads to sub-optimal detection and much improvement can be obtained by exploiting side-information available at the embedder. In some p...
