    Abstract: An information processing apparatus is used to embed electronic watermark information. An input digital motion image is displayed on a display device. Using an input device, part of the displayed digital motion image is specified as an embed area into which electronic watermark information is to be embedded. The electronic watermark information is specified by use of the input device as well. The specified embed area is followed by detecting its movement so that only the specified embed area is watermarked.

    Abstract: A digital watermarking method performs tonal detection on a signal (e.g., audio) to identify tonal and non-tonal components. These components are analyzed to compute appropriate weighting of a digital watermark for the tonal and non-tonal components. This tonal detection method is also used in recovering the watermark. A decoding method performs tonal detection on a watermarked signal, computes weights for tonal and non-tonal components, and recovers the embedded watermark using the weights. The same or different watermark embedding schemes may be used to embed digital watermarks in the tonal and non-tonal components. Tonal analysis is used in conjunction with frequency and temporal shaping to adapt the digital watermark to the signal in which it is embedded.

    Abstract: A digital watermark detector uses weighting functions to enhance watermark detection. The weighting function applies more weight to parts of a digitally watermarked signal that are more robust to distortion. As such, the method provides for more reliable watermark detection, especially in applications where distortions, such as lossy compression or analog conversion, more accurate detection more difficult. In one version of the method, the detector projects the watermarked signal into a pseudorandom direction specified by a key, applies the weighting function, and extracts auxiliary data symbols from the projected signal by quantizing the projected signal and deriving the symbol values based on the quantization.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a method of embedding a watermark W in an information signal P, to a corresponding arrangement for embedding a watermark W in an information signal P, to an information signal with an embedded watermark, and to a storage medium 50 having stored thereon an information signal P with an embedded watermark W. The watermark is embedded in the information signal by deriving sub-patterns Wi from said watermark pattern W, wherein the energy spectrum concentration of each sub-pattern Wi has a dominent orientation. The local weight factors &lgr;(P) for said watermark sub-patterns Wi are determined based on the local energy spectrum of the information signal P in said dominent orientation. Said watermark sub-patterns Wi are locally weighted using said determined local weight factors &lgr;(P). Finally, the locally weighted watermark sub-patterns (Wi) are added to the information signal P.

    Abstract: A reversible watermarking program transforms a host data file into a logical storage unit for auxiliary data files by embedding the auxiliary files in the data stored in the host data file. The reversible watermark modifies host data such as an image, audio, video, or software code, to carry auxiliary data. For perceptual content such as visual or audio media, the reversible watermark can maintain a desired level of perceptual quality, effectively hiding the auxiliary data in the host data. The reversible watermark enables the original host data prior to modifications due to the embedding to be restored.
