    摘要: This disclosure describes methods for using embedded auxiliary signals in documents for copy detection and other applications. In an application, the auxiliary signal is formed as an array of elements selected from a set of print structures (106) with properties that change differently in response to copy operations. These changes in properties of the print structures that carry the embedded auxiliary signal are automatically detectable. The extent to which the auxiliary data is detected forms a detection metric used in combination with one or more other metrics to differentiate copies from originals. Robust and fragile watermarks are used in Image Replacement Documents for a variety of applications. Digital watermarks act as on-board mediators in authentication of a variety of printed documents. Finally, digital watermarks are used to help manage quality of the scanners used in imaging systems.

    摘要: One method for halftone image watermarking assigns halftone watermark dot values to pseudorandom locations in an image and diffuses the error (106) of the watermark to neighboring pixel locations of these dots. Another method modulates halftone thresholds to convert multilevel pixels to watermarked halftone pixels. This method may be used in conjunction with a robust watermark (110) spread throughout image before embedding the halftone watermark. In a compatible watermark reader (124), digital watermark signal strength is measured by analyzing bit errors in the extracted watermark message signal.
