摘要:
A contents control method for controlling a process on the receiving side which is applied to contents transmitted from the transmitting side to the receiving side, includes a step of adding, when a predetermined block of the transmitted contents is an area where control information for controlling the process substance on the receiving side which is applied to the contents is added, the control information to the block. The method also includes a step of receiving a process designation concerning the transmitted contents, and a step of applying, when user information stored in a receiving side apparatus which receives the transmitted contents, or information concerning the receiving side apparatus satisfies conditions corresponding to the received process designation in the control information added to the block of the contents, a process corresponding to the process designation to the received block.

The present invention can detect watermark information from motion picture of various scanning methods and various picture sizes without causing increase of a memory capacity.A watermark information detection apparatus 1 converts encoded watermarked motion picture 4 into standard motion picture 5 having the smallest data size among the assumed kinds of motion picture. Further, the watermark information detection apparatus 1 scales a standard coordination system that is utilized for specifying embedding locations of a watermark pattern. Then, with respect to each field of the standard motion picture 5, watermark information is detected from predetermined locations specified in the scaled standard coordinate system by the watermark pattern.

A method for using digital contents is provided. In the method, a request is made to a provider apparatus for a certificate containing a first provider ID embedded therein by a certification authority, and the certificate is received from the provider apparatus. A decision is made by using the certificate as to whether or not the provider is authorized by the certification authority. A request is made to the provider apparatus for a digital content having a second provider ID embedded therein by a contents guarantee authority when the provider is authorized by the certification authority, and the digital content is received from the provider. The first provider ID is read from the certificate, the digital content is correlated with the second provider ID, and the digital content is stored in a storage medium. The second provider ID is detected from the digital content in response to a request to use the digital content. The first provider ID is compared with the second provider ID when the second provider ID is detected. The digital content is used when the first provider ID and the second provider ID match. The use of the digital content is restricted when the first provider ID and the second provider ID do no match.
摘要:
A digital watermark information is extracted from geometrically deformed image without using a calibrating digital watermark. Pixel data at positions predetermined in an X-Y coordinate used when embedding the watermark is extracted from image data in which the digital watermark has been embedded for given pixel data and compared with a reference value to determine whether the watermark has been embedded in the pixel data concerned or not. This processing is repeated until it is confirmed that the information is embedded in the pixel data concerned, while applying geometric deformation to the image data.

摘要:
A digital watermark information detection method for detecting information inserted as a digital watermark from contents has a step of converting the contents into a predetermined specified format and a step of trying to detect information from the converted contents. When a plurality of specified formats are defined in advance and detection of the information from the converted contents fails, the contents is converted into another specified format and the information detection is retried.
摘要:
A method of embedding digital watermark information b1–bn (2≦n) in image data. The image data is divided into a plurality of areas S each consisting of M×N (1≦M, N) pixels. A plurality of areas G each consisting of P×Q (1≦P, Q) of the areas S are defined. Each of the areas S constituting each area G is allocated to some one of: areas T1–Tn in which said digital watermark information b1–bn is respectively embedded and areas H1–Hm (1≦m) in which information is not embedded. One or more areas T and one or more areas H are located in a predetermined arrangement in each area G. And, the plurality of areas G are located in a predetermined rule.

摘要:
According to a digital watermark information extracting method, pixel data located at predetermined positions on X-Y coordinate used when digital watermark information is embedded are extracted from image data, and the data value of the pixel data is compared with a reference value to judge whether the watermark information is embedded in the pixel data concerned. This processing is repetitively executed while a geometrical deformation is applied to the image data until it is confirmed that the information is embedded in the pixel data.
摘要:
An extraction process includes the steps of carrying out a geometric transformation on a picture being inspected to transform the size of the picture being inspected into a reduced scale of an original picture; creating a plurality of degraded original pictures with different types each obtained as a result of degradation of the original picture; creating a plurality of differential pictures by subtraction of the degraded original pictures with different types from the picture being inspected with a transformed size to cancel degradation components in the picture being inspected with a transformed size; and extracting the information corresponding to the authentication information.
