    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: A method of updating a database (211) comprising a fingerprint of and an associated set of metadata for each of a number of multimedia objects, A multimedia object and a set of metadata for the multimedia object is downloaded from a file sharing client (101-105). A fingerprint is computed from the multimedia object, and the computed fingerprint and the obtained set of metadata are included in the database (211). The database (211) can be maintained by a central server (210), or be maintained in a distributed fashion by servers (404) running on the file sharing clients (101-105). The database (211) in this way accumulates plural sets of metadata associated with one particular fingerprint. When a sufficient number of sets has been collected, a definite set can be determined using filtering techniques.

    摘要: In a method and arrangement for embedding and detecting a watermark in an information signal, the embedded watermark (Wi) is selected (13) from a plurality of watermarks (W1 . . . WN) in dependence upon a property P of the signal. An example of such a property is the distribution of luminance values of the current video image as calculated by an analysis circuit (12). The corresponding watermark detector performs the same operation: the watermark being looked for depends on the same signal property. It is achieved with the invention that the embedded watermark changes from time to time as a function of the information signal content, so that it cannot easily be hacked.

    摘要: 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.

    摘要: The invention relates to a method and a system (100) for embedding extra information in an input signal (101). Groups of one or more candidate frames in the input signal (101) are associated with respective portions of the extra information. Each group is edited in dependence on its associated respective portion, for example by deleting it to represent a zero bit in the respective portion and duplicating it to represent a one. The invention further relates to a method and system (200) for decoding extra information embedded in an input signal (201) by comparing it with an original input signal (204) and decoding the differences into the extra information. For example, missing groups of candidate frames are decoded into a zero bit, and duplicated candidate frames are decoded into a one bit.

    摘要: A video watermarking scheme is disclosed, which is designed for the digital cinema format, as it will be used on large projector screens in theaters. The watermark is designed in such a way that it has minimal impact on the video quality, but is still detectable after capture with a handheld camera and conversion to, for instance, VHS, CD-Video or DVD format. The proposed watermarking system only exploits the temporal axis. This makes it invulnerable to geometrical distortions generally caused by such a way of capturing. The watermark is embedded by modulating a global property of the frames (e.g. the mean luminance) in accordance with the samples of the watermark. The embedding depth is preferably locally adapted within each frame to local statistics of the respective image. Watermark detection is performed by correlating the watermark sequence with extracted mean luminance values of a sequence of frames.

    摘要: A method and arrangement are disclosed for distributing multimedia content such that that the actual distribution of said content can be monitored in an efficient and reliable manner. The invention combines the extensiveness of feature extraction and the robustness of watermarking. Characteristic features of the content, e.g. luminance distribution, are extracted (11) to constitute a signature (SIG) of the content. In addition, a watermark is embedded (12) having a payload representing an index (ID) in a database (10) in which the content to be monitored is stored. The watermark serves as an index for limiting the database search needed for monitoring the signatures.
