摘要:
A method (100) of watermarking an image (101) is disclosed. The method (100) segments the image (101) into regions. Each region is then characterised based upon one or more statistical features of the respective regions. For each region, a watermarking method and a number of bits to be embedded into the respective region are selected based on the characterization of the region. The number of bits of data is then embedded into the respective region using the watermarking method selected for that region. A method (105) of decoding a watermarked image (145) is also disclosed.

摘要:
Improved techniques for making copy detection patterns and using them to detect copying relationships between digital representations. The techniques include techniques for including a message in a copy detection pattern without altering the copy detection patterns entropy and reading the message, techniques for using a copy detection pattern on an analog form to determine whether the analog form is an original analog form without reference to a digital representation of the original of the analog form's copy detection pattern, techniques for increasing the sensitivity of copy detection using copy detection patterns by modifying one of two copy detection patterns that are being compared to take into account alterations resulting from the copying process, techniques for distributing a copy detection pattern across a document, and techniques for using the entropy of a copy detection pattern to locate the copy detection pattern. Also disclosed are applications of copy detection patterns with copying that involves transformations between the digital and analog forms and with digital-to-digital copying.

A specific frequency extraction unit (11) extracts a specific frequency component signal from an input image signal (10), a phase controller (12) and amplitude controller (13) control at least one of the phase and amplitude of the specific frequency component signal in accordance with watermark information, and a watermark information superposition unit (16) superposes the specific frequency component signal on the input image signal to generate an image signal embedded with the watermark information.
摘要:
This invention relates to a method of setting anti-forgery information addition level while taking an apparatus individual difference into consideration. The method is employed by a data processing system including: an image processing apparatus 100 for processing an image; and a maintenance apparatus 120, connected with the image processing apparatus through a network 110, for setting a processing function of the image processing apparatus 100. The maintenance apparatus 120 determines an anti-forgery information addition level depending on an individual difference of apparatuses, such as an exhaustion level of the image processing apparatus 100. The addition level determined by the maintenance apparatus 120 is transmitted to the image processing apparatus 100. The image processing apparatus 100 adds anti-forgery information to an inputted image at the addition level transmitted by the maintenance apparatus 120.
摘要:
To lighten the processing load of embedding a digital watermark in content data, a preliminary process (embedding strength map generating process) run by a preprocessing section and the main process (digital watermark embedding process) run by a man processing section are run mutually independently. Specifically, the preliminary process of the preprocessing section is run each time new content data is stored to the content data database, and the main process of the main processing section is run when a content delivery request is received from a receiving terminal (client).
摘要:
An image processing apparatus performs processing for embedding information in an image. The image processing apparatus includes a selection unit for selecting a pixel of the image. A processing unit performs processing on the pixel selected by the selection unit according to the information so that the pixel is reproducible by utilizing the correlation of the image. According to the above-described processing, the information is embedded in the pixel.
