Abstract

The present invention relates to an improved additive spread spectrum watermarking method, belonging to the field of multimedia security. Digital watermarking is an important tool for protecting multimedia copyright. The spread spectrum method is the most promising watermarking technology at present. Due to channel noise and main signal interference, existing watermarking algorithms have high bit error rate, failing to meet the requirements. Due to use of a structure characteristic of an Additive Spread Spectrum (ASS) watermarking decoder, a self-adjusting function is introduced to compensate main signal interference. The major innovative content is as follows: the present invention provides an improved ASS watermarking method. The improved ASS watermarking method has the same decoder as a traditional ASS watermarking method. For the noise-free condition, the improved ASS watermarking method generates no error code theoretically. For the noise condition, experiment results show that the improved ASS watermarking method can improve the decoding performance remarkably. The method is applicable to protecting the network platform-based digital multimedia copyright.

Description

A kind of improved additivity spread-spectrum watermark method
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of digital watermark technology, more particularly to a kind of spread-spectrum watermark method.
Background technology
In numerous areas, the digital picture of magnanimity can be all produced daily, such as military detective, natural disaster monitoring, traffic prison Control, weather forecast, E-Government, and individual affair etc..Meanwhile, in recent years, emerging in multitude for various capture apparatus also accelerates The arrival in big data epoch.The Internet causes the propagation of media product convenient.Therefore, image indexing system and many matchmakers The safety of body becomes extremely important.Recently, cloud computing causes the common concern of academia and industrial quarters.With in cloud data The development of the heart, the multimedia safety of cloud becomes a heat subject.To protect the integrity of video content, researcher is using crisp A kind of weak watermark technology, it is proposed that the video-frequency identifying method under cloud environment.To detect the reliability of cloud atlas picture, researcher is proposed A kind of adaptive image watermark method of encrypted domain.To protect the copyright of audio production, researcher to combine cloud computing and audio frequency Digital watermark, devises a kind of ad system.However, the Copyright Protection of cloud digital multimedia has become academia and industry The a major challenge on boundary.Digital watermark technology is by non information(That is watermark information), such as identity information, serial number and secret Close word etc., is embedded into main signal the inside.Then, the decoder that watermark information can pass through to specify is extracted, to realize Copyright protection and other application.
Spread spectrum(Spread Spectrum, SS)Method is current most promising water mark method.In the method, watermark Information is dispersed in many frequency coefficients.Therefore, for each coefficient, very little is changed, is difficult to be aware.According to embedded The difference of rule, spread-spectrum watermark method can be broadly divided into:Additivity spreads(Additive Spread Spectrum, ASS)Watermark Method and the property taken advantage of spread(Multiplicative Spread Spectrum, MSS)Water mark method.In ASS water mark methods, water Official seal breath is embedded in main signal by addition;And in MSS water mark methods, watermark information is to be embedded into main letter by multiplication In number.
At present, researchers propose some ASS water mark methods, such as spread-spectrum watermark scheme.The program is by watermark bit positions Diffusion of information is embedded in main signal coefficient.The program can be divided into three kinds of embedding grammars, i.e. ASS, MSS and index SS watermark sides Method.Theirs test result indicate that:SS water mark methods have good to general signal processing operations and common geometric transformation Robustness.Meanwhile, there is researcher to devise one based on discrete cosine transform domain(Discrete Cosine Transform, DCT)The optimum decoder of ASS water mark methods.The decoder is approximately obeyed based on the middle low frequency coefficient of main signal Generalized Gaussian distribution and design.The interference effect of main signal itself, has researcher to propose one in reduce ASS water mark methods Plant improved ASS water mark methods.The method adjusts watermark information embedment strength by a function.From encoding knowledge, Decoding performance can be improved by the intensity of the embedded watermark of modulation.In addition, also have researcher to propose a kind of priori additivity expanding Frequently(Correlation-and-bit-Aware Spread Spectrum, CASS)Water mark method.Analog result shows:CASS Water mark method is better than traditional ASS water mark methods.
Although having had many with regard to ASS water mark methods and its report of improved method, the decoding of these methods Can be still unsatisfactory.For the interference effect for further reducing main signal itself in ASS water mark methods, it is proposed that one kind is improved Additivity spread spectrum(Improved Additive Spread Spectrum, IASS)Water mark method.Analog result shows:Propose IASS water mark methods be better than traditional ASS water mark methods and other improved methods.
