摘要:
A watermark information embedding method, and apparatus, capable of suppressing the quality degradation of contents and increasing the survivability of embedded information. When embedding watermark information in moving picture data formed of a plurality of still picture frames arranged in time series, a motion vector representing a property specific to moving picture is detected (22, 224) for each of image blocks generated by dividing a target frame. According to a motion quantity, a pixel change factor specifying rule (32, 320) is selected (23) for each block. Out of pixels permitted to be changed in luminance depending upon the state of an image in each block representing a property specific to still picture, as many pixels as a number specified by the selected rule (33) are selected (24). Luminance change processing for forming watermark information is conducted (25) on the selected pixels.

摘要:
A network system capable of preventing the leakage of a confidential file (107) by an inadvertent act of a transmitting party and capable of meeting the requirement for an arbitrary file format is disclosed. A label indicating a security level (202; 1402) ("confidential" or "unclassified") is attached to the file (107) in a client terminal (101), which transmits the labeled file (107) outside. A transmission management program (119) on a gateway server (118) checks the label of the file (107), and in the case where the security level (202; 1402) is "unclassified", transmits the file (107) to an external network (121). Also, a label management program (109) manages the labeled file (107) in the client terminal (101).
摘要:
A method of embedding information into contents includes a changeable range calculating step (103) of obtaining a range where value change of the contents is imperceptible to the human being and a step (105) of embedding information by changing the values of the contents within the changeable range.
摘要:
A data embedding method and apparatus and a data reproducing method and apparatus are provided which can apply a digital watermark to various contents. Instead of embedding watermarking information in respective pixels or by using a relation between pixels, the watermarking information is embedded as a position pattern (4) of changed pixels (3) in the contents. Reliability comparable with conventional techniques can be obtained irrespective of a change in a smaller number of pixels for the contents.
