    Abstract: A water marked image frame for conveying a payload data word is generated by combining at least one image frame with a two-dimensional water mark pattern. Comprising a plurality of regions, each including a two dimensional water mark block selected from a predetermined set of possible water mark blocks to represent the value of the associated payload data symbol. The payload data is detected by correlating each region of the water marked image frame with each block from of the set of water marked blocks, to form for each region a set of probability surfaces, each of which is combined with a distortion probability value for each region and for each of the water mark blocks which may be present in the region thus forming for each region, for each of the possible values of the payload symbol a probability value that that region includes that symbol value and therefrom generating an estimate of the payload data.

    Abstract: An encoding data processing apparatus generates a marked copy of a video material item by embedding a payload data word into the video material item. The video material item includes a plurality of video frames. The encoding data processing apparatus comprises a code word generator, a shuffle processor and an embedding data processor. The code word generator is operable to generate a water mark code word from the payload data word and to read data representing the water mark code word into a shuffle data store. The shuffle processor is operable to generate pseudo randomly at least one address within an address space of the shuffle data store for each of the video frames and to read data representing part or parts of the water mark code word out from the data store at locations identified by the pseudo randomly generated address. The data embedding processor is operable to receive the video material item and to embed the data representing the part or parts of the water mark code word read out from the shuffle data store for each frame into a corresponding frame of the video material item. As such, by randomly embedding different parts of the code word into each frame of the video material item, a likelihood of an attacker being able to identify the code word within the video material item is substantially reduced. Security of the payload data word represented by the water mark code word is therefore improved.

    Abstract: A data processing apparatus registers an image which has been encoded with a two-dimensional water mark pattern. The water mark comprises for each frame of the image a water mark frame pattern of water mark blocks, the water mark pattern comprising a plurality of regions. Each region of the pattern includes one water mark block selected from a predetermined set of possible water mark blocks in accordance with a key sequence. The key sequence provides a predetermined sequence of selected water mark blocks to form the water mark pattern of each frame to provide a predetermined sequence of water marked frames. The data processing apparatus comprises a block match processor operable to generate block match probabilities comprising for each region of a current frame of the water marked image a probability surface of possible distortion vectors for each possible water mark block of the set of possible water marked blocks which may have been added to that region of the image frame. A water mark block prior probability calculator operable to form block prior probabilities, a distortion probability calculator operable to form a spatial prior probability surface for each region of the current image frame from the block prior probabilities and the block match probabilities, providing a probability distribution of distortion vectors for the region, and a mark of distortion processor operable to form an estimate of a distortion vector for each region from the adapted spatial prior probabilities. Accordingly, distortion in a water marked image can be detected and then removed with out a need to refer to an original copy of the image.
