Description

Digital image restoration method based on digital watermark technology
Technical field:
The present invention relates to the multimedia messages process field.Be to utilize digital watermark technology to help damaged image to carry out content to restore specifically, can improve the visual quality of images of digital picture under abominable transmission conditions, also can be used for protecting the integrality of digital image content.Be applicable to the diverse network of units such as government, enterprise, army, bank, library.
Background technology:
Multimedia messages the phenomenon of loss of data and distortion all might occur in transmission course when if network congestion taking place or being subjected to hacker's malicious attack.In order to improve signal transmission quality, minimizing is also repaired the information of losing, and the various countries scholar has proposed the multiple technologies strategy.From the angle of information coding, can be divided into initiatively and passive two kinds of solutions.Active solution mainly comprises fault-tolerant encoding technology and channel-information source combined coding technology.Though this class scheme can be accomplished the intact reconstruction of data, but exist the problem compatible mutually with the signal encoding standard, and compare under the serious situation in loss of data, active solution might lose efficacy, and at this moment needed to adopt the passive-type scheme to remedy.The passive-type solution mainly refers to the signal processing technology damaged data recovered at receiving end, as error concealment and image restoration technology, promptly utilizes the data that receive, and estimates the data with reconstructing lost.The digital image restoration algorithm based on digital watermark technology that the present invention proposes belongs to the passive-type solution.
At present, digital image restoration technology both domestic and external mainly is to utilize the correlativity of data block on the spatial domain, promptly utilizes the character of continuous gray scale conversion between spatial domain epigraph piece and the piece, estimates the image block of losing by linear interpolation techniques.Lose the value of each pixel in the image block, obtain through linear interpolation by the pixel on the same locus in the adjacent block.If the video data block of losing is more concentrated, then need to restore through recursive operation, promptly at first rebuild the obliterated data piece that those have more adjacent block, the data block that these reconstructions are obtained is handled the image block of losing that those have less adjacent block again as known conditions then.Obviously, owing to when data are rebuild, lack the priori of reconstructed object, therefore the data volume when missing image be difficult in this way recover the picture material that the obliterated data piece is expressed, so quality of reconstructed images was relatively poor when very big (as through the bigger shearing manipulation of area).
Summary of the invention:
The present invention utilizes digital watermark technology to help damaged image to carry out the content recovery, and the feature that is about to image is hidden in the image self as watermark, utilizes the characteristic information that extracts from image when signal restoring, helps damaged image to recover the data message of losing.The specific implementation method is as follows:
1. digital picture is before entering transmission channel, at first utilize wavelet multiresolution rate operation splitting to extract characteristics of image, then with the characteristic information of real number character through the quantization encoding process convert to be suitable as that watermark embeds { 0, the 1} signal repeats watermark to be embedded in the details subgraph of image different resolution and different directions by watermarking algorithm.Neither can influence the visual quality and the use of host image after watermark embeds, also can not increase the volume of host image.After this, obtain being embedded with the digital picture of unique characteristics information, send into transmission channel through after the common digital coding processing procedure through wavelet multiresolution rate synthetic operation.
2. at the image receiving end,, then image is carried out the wavelet multiresolution rate and decompose, utilize watermark extracting algorithm and weighting watermark recovery mechanism to obtain watermark signal then, revert to the characteristic information of image then by decode procedure if find that picture material is impaired.Utilize the thought of image co-registration at last, characteristic information and damaged image are merged, recover the picture material of losing.
3. the approximate subgraph that the image wavelet multiresolution is decomposed is as the characteristic information of image, and this is because the data volume of approximate subgraph is little, only is 1/4 of former figure L, (L is the number of plies of wavelet decomposition), but comprised the Global Information of image, so the importance height.
4. the coding-decoding operation that characteristic information and watermark signal are changed mutually is as follows:
(1) quantization encoding operation: at first find the maximum of T of characteristic information, and determine 8 intervals: (0, T/8], (T/8,2T/8], (2T/8,3T/8], (3T/8,4T/8], (4T/8,5T/8], (5T/8,6T/8], (6T/8,7T/8], (7T/8, T], the position of each element on number axis in the comparative feature information then.If certain numerical digit is then used the final coding form of the binary representation of m as this number in m interval.Because 8 states have been represented in 8 intervals, so only need the just value of a characteristic information of energy perfect representation of 3 bits.
(2) decode operation: after receiving end utilizes the watermark extracting algorithm to obtain watermark information, at first recover the interval numbering at 1 characteristic information place by per 3 watermark signals, recover the value of characteristic information then, that is: if this characteristic information in m interval, is then used the value of middle this characteristic information of value representation in this interval.
(3) the important parameter T that uses in the encoding-decoding process is embedded in the image after also needing to convert binary mode to.It can select the embedded location different with further feature information.The details subgraph that among the present invention all characteristic informations is embedded into the host, and T is embedded in the approximate subgraph.
5. the embedding of watermark and extraction algorithm are as follows:
(1) the embedding algorithm of watermark: the embedding of watermark is to finish by the wavelet coefficient in the image detail subgraph is carried out replacement operation.When watermark signal was 0, wavelet coefficient was replaced by nearest with it category-A point; When watermark signal was 1, wavelet coefficient was replaced by nearest with it category-B point.Wherein, the category-A point is defined as (2k+1/2) Δ, and the category-B point is defined as (2k-1/2) Δ, k=0, and ± 1, ± 2K, Δ are the human eye threshold of visibility of wavelet coefficient correspondence.Carry out inverse wavelet transform then, obtain being embedded with the image of unique characteristics information.Because the transformation range of wavelet coefficient is less than human eye threshold of visibility Δ, so this embedding strategy invisibly has been embedded among the image watermark.
(2) extraction algorithm of watermark: the image that at first will contain unique characteristics carries out the wavelet multiresolution rate identical with watermark embed process and decomposes, then with the wavelet coefficient in the details subgraph divided by Δ, carry out Modulo-two operation after the merchant rounded, just obtained watermark signal.
6. in order to guarantee that as far as possible image still can correctly recover characteristic information after the lost part data, the recovery for damaged image provides condition then, has adopted following measure:
(1) before embedding operation, watermark signal is carried out pseudo-random permutation.
(2) watermark signal is repeated to be embedded in the image.If wherein a part of watermark is damaged because of loss of image data, so still can in remaining watermark, find correct watermark signal.
(3) adopt weighting watermark recovery mechanism.The ability that different wavelet coefficient opposings is attacked is inequality, the less coefficient of the energy force rate absolute value that the opposing of the bigger coefficient of absolute value is attacked is strong, wavelet coefficient under the low resolution is stronger than the coefficient resistivity under the high resolving power, and the coefficient resistivity of the wavelet coefficient comparison angular direction of level, vertical direction is strong.Therefore can be according to the ability of wavelet coefficient opposing attack, for the watermark signal that extracts from these wavelet coefficients is given different credibilities.The final watermark value of determining is the weighted sum of the watermark signal that is repeated to embed.
7. if find that at receiving end picture material loses, can from image, extract characteristic information, utilize the method for image co-registration to recover the picture material of losing.That is: the priori of characteristic information as obliterated data directly interpolated in the corresponding data block, combine with other Image Restoration Algorithm then, make the grey scale change between reconstructed data block and the adjacent data blocks more level and smooth.This method can improve the reconstruction quality of image largely, even when the missing image data block is relatively concentrated, when area is big, utilize the still content implication of recover data losses part largely of this method, its quality of reconstructed images has had significant raising than other algorithm.
