This paper presents a review of the literature on the use of artificial neutral networks in digital watermarking. Digital watermarking is a recent technology evolved to prevent illegal copy or reproduction of digital content. Different neural network based approaches have been categorized based on their applications for embedding and extracting components of watermarking.

In this paper a benchmarking system for watermarking algorithms is described. The proposed benchmarking system can be used to evaluate the performance of watermarking methods used for copyright protection, authentication, fingerprinting, etc. Although the system described in the paper is used for image watermarking, the general framework can be used, by introducing a different set of attacks, f...

Problem statement: Medical images such as x-rays, ultrasounds and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) plays an important role in helping the physicians to diagnose a disease or body conditions. These images can be tampered with existing image processing tools that is easily available. The usage of security measures such as watermarking can protect the integrity of the images. Numerous watermarking...

Most work on watermarking has resulted in techniques for different types of data: image, audio, video, text/language, software, etc. In this paper we discuss the watermarking of abstract structured aggregates of multiple types of content, such as multi-type/media documents. These semi-structures can be usually represented as graphs and are characterized by value lying both in the structure and ...

Reversible video watermarking can guarantee that the original watermark and the original frame can be recovered from the watermarked frame without any distortion. Although reversible video watermarking has successfully been applied in multimedia, but its application has not been extensively explored in medical videos. Reversible watermarking in medical videos is still a challenging problem. The...

The need of copyright protection has become a detachable requirement for online media ebusiness as online multimedia businesses and enabling technologies become viable in recent years. Watermarking enables copyright protection in e-business but it also slows down the packaging process for delivery. The requirement of instant delivery is a prime requirement for online business. In the literature...

Watermarking is widely used in multimedia preservation and communication, which comprises, therefore not limited to, data security validation. Security, readability, imperceptibility, resilience are some of the key advantages this technology. However, there still certain issues that need to be addressed, such as ability withstand a variety assaults without substantially affecting quality value ...

This paper presents a 3-level RDWT biometric watermarking algorithm to embed the voice biometric MFC coefficients in a color face image of the same individual for increased robustness, security and accuracy. Phase congruency model is used to compute the embedding locations which preserves the facial features from being watermarked and ensures that the face recognition accuracy is not compromise...

JPEG 2000 is a new compression technology that achieves very high compression rate and maintains visual quality. Digital watermarking techniques have been developed to protect the copyright of media signals. The goal of this paper is to put into perspective joint photographic experts group (JPEG) and JPEG 2000 concepts a long with watermarking principle. It provides evaluation of the compatibil...
