    摘要: There is described a method of processing a serial data signal to generate a corresponding transformed signal, for example encoded signal. The method includes steps of: (a) providing one or more signature sequences; (b) analysing the serial data signal to determine therein one or more signal sequences for which holds that combining such one or more signal sequences with said one or more signature sequences does not result in generation of illegal states; and (c) combining one or more of the determined signal sequences of the serial data signal with said one or more signature sequences so as to transform the serial data signal into the transformed signal. Moreover, there is also described apparatus (100) operable to execute the method and/or a corresponding inverse method.

    摘要: Identification of a digital media sequence is performed by an encoding and a decoding process. A sequence is received and its digital fingerprint is computed. A database lookup based on the fingerprint produces one or more matches that all resemble the computed fingerprint to a certain degree. If there is more than one match, at least one attempt is made to detect a watermark in the sequence. If a watermark is found, at least part of the watermark is extracted and used to select one of the matches among the sequences that resemble the media sequence to be identified.

    摘要: Disclosed is a method of embedding a watermark in an information signal (x(n)), such as an audio signal. The method comprises the steps of segmenting the audio signal into overlapping frames (xs(n)) using a set of analysis windows (ha(n)), calculating watermark segments (ws'(n)) for the overlapping frames, reconstructing a watermark signal (w'(n)) from the watermark segments using a set of reconstruction windows (hr(n)) which are complementary to the analysis windows, and adding the watermark signal to the information signal. The analysis and reconstruction windows may be constructed on the basis of prototype windows to fulfil predetermined complementary conditions. The analysis and reconstruction windows may be adapted to the contents of the information signal.

    摘要: The invention relates to a method of checking the correct operation of a signal transformation wherein an input signal is transformed into an output signal. The method comprises: deriving a first robust feature from the input signal; deriving a second robust feature from the output signal; comparing said first and second robust features; in case of sufficient similarity, concluding a correct operation of said signal transformation, and in case of insufficient similarity, concluding a false operation of said signal transformation. In a special embodiment, the method is applied wherein the first robust feature is embedded in the input signal through watermark technology, the thus obtained signal being transmitted to a receiver so as to retrieve an output signal corresponding to said input signal.

    摘要: Reproduction arrangement for receiving information coded in accordance with a predefined standard, decoding the coded information and reproducing the decoding result. The reproduction arrangement may further receive and decode trigger information, which differs from the standard in a predefined manner. This results in a predefined special output, which is reproduced by the reproduction arrangement. A manufacturer of hardware and/or software present in the reproduction arrangement may thus verify in a simple manner whether this hardware and/or software has been made by himself. If the predefined special output is reproduced when the trigger information is added, then the reproduction arrangement will contain his hardware and/or software.

    摘要: A high-quality signal, for example a unity-bit coded (DSD) audio signal having a 2.822 MHz bit rate (fs1) is converted to a lower sample rate (fs3) PCM signal by means of a sample rate converter (102). The watermark is embedded at the lower sample rate by a conventional watermark embedder (101) which is capable of handling signals at this lower rate. The watermark (WM) is not otherwise available. It is subsequently retrieved by subtracting (103) the unwatermarked signal from the watermarked signal, and up-sampled (104) to an intermediate sampling rate (fs2). The DSD signal is converted (110) to a PCM signal at said intermediate sample rate. The retrieved watermark is then added (107) to the PCM signal and the watermarked PCM signal is back-converted (120) to a unity-bit coded DSD signal. In a preferred embodiment, the arrangement includes a compensation circuit (105) which compensates the information signal X' for any (e.g. non-linear) operations performed by the embedder (101) so as to minimize the estimated watermark (WM'). The compensation circuit re-introduces said operations in the DSD domain by controlling parameters such as scaling (106, 109) and time shifting (108).
