    摘要: A signal includes a runlength limited (RLL) encoded binary d,k channel bitstream, parameter d defining a minimum number and k defining a maximum number of zeroes between any two ones of the bitstream, or vice versa. The signal further includes a number of sections of respectively N successive RLL channel bits, called RLL rows, each RLL row representing a row parity-check code-word, in which a row-based parity-check constraint for the RLL row has been realized. K sections of respectively N successive channel bits, called column parity-check rows, are located at predetermined positions of a group of M RLL rows. The column parity-check rows include column parity-check enabling channel words, each realizing a column-based parity-check constraint for all corresponding segments of at least the M RLL rows of the group that correspond to a specific column parity-check enabling channel word, thereby constituting a column parity-check codeword.

    摘要: Disclosed is a method for the detection of pseudo-symmetric watermarks in an information signal. The method includes receiving the information signal, wherein the watermark is embedded in respective sections of the information signal by tiling a finite number of a plurality of watermark patterns, accumulating the sections, and correlating the accumulated sections with a sum of the plurality of watermark patterns. In particular, the information signal is folded as if there was only a single basic pattern. The presence of the watermark is then detected by a cyclic sliding correlating.

    摘要: A method of maintaining a database comprising a fingerprint of and an associated set of metadata for each of a number of multimedia objects. Respective portions (201, 202, 203, 204, 205) of the database are distributed over respective file sharing clients (101-105) connected to a file sharing network (100) arranged for sharing said number of multimedia objects. File sharing clients (101-105) can maintain their own respective portions (201-205) of the database, or transmit fingerprints and metadata to another file sharing client. In the latter case, the other file sharing client is preferably a supermode in the file sharing network (100).

    摘要: The invention discloses a method of embedding information for high quality restoration of a media signal (typically an audio-visual signal) in a lower quality version of the signal. To this end, the signal x is encoded using a high quality encoder (Q2). The code sequences z produced by the high quality encoder are mapped into code sequences y that are associated with a hypothetical lower quality encoder (Q1). The latter code sequences y are transmitted. A simple decoder will decode the received sequences y, and thus reproduce a low quality version of the signal. A more sophisticated decoder is arranged to inversely map the received code sequences y into the code sequences z, that were actually produced by the high quality encoder (Q2). The sophisticated decoder will thus reproduce a higher quality version of the same signal.

    摘要: For some video processing applications, most notably watermark detection (40), it is necessary to add or average (parts of) the two interlaced fields which make up a frame. This operation is not trivial in the MPEG domain due to the existence of frame-encoded DCT blocks. The invention provides a method and arrangement for adding the fields without requiring a frame memory or an on-the-fly inverse DCT. To this end, the mathematically required operations of inverse vertical DCT (321) and addition (322) are combined with a basis transform (323). The basis transform is chosen to be such that the combined operation is physically replaced by multiplication with a sparse matrix (32). Said sparse matrix multiplication can easily be executed on-the-fly. The inverse basis transform (35) is postponed until after the desired addition (33, 34) has been completed.

    摘要: The invention relates to a method of storing data on a rewritable data storage medium, to a corresponding storage medium, to a corresponding recording apparatus and to a corresponding playback apparatus. Copy-protective measures require that on rewritable storage media some data must be stored which shall not be modifiable or erasable by consumer end products. A practical problem is the storage of large quantities of such data in a fixed data area. Typically the capacity is limited to a few bits. Meanwhile the amount of copy protection data that needs to be stored may well exceed the storage capacity available in the read-only fixed data area. The invention therefore proposes to write the copy protection data as system data in the recordable data area (4), e.g. as part of the formatting of the medium (1). A cryptographic summary is computed and also stored in the recordable data area (32) or in the fixed data area (2) such that a cryptographic relationship between the fixed data area (2) and the system data area (3) is provided. A playback or replay apparatus will only accept a storage medium with a valid combination of copy protection data and fixed data.
