Description

Eletric watermark inserted digital picture and to its method that detects and device
Technical field
The present invention relates to the digital processing field, relate to the recognition data (electronic watermark data) that to have customizing messages more specifically and embed or insert technology in the digital picture.
Background technology
In recent years, illegally carry out duplicating of digital picture and become a problem.In order to prevent this type of bootlegging, considered DID is encoded, just and the playback system that only has a legitimate secret can reproduce decoded numerical data.Yet in case password is decrypted, this system can't prevent replication subsequently.
Therefore, in order to prevent illegally using and duplicating of digital picture, considered to use a kind of method, wherein customizing messages was embedded in the data image by (refer to describe below electronic watermark data).For the watermark data that is used for digital picture of this kind, can use such as two visual and not visible electron-like watermark datas.
The visible electronic watermark data is by becoming directly perceived visual to image synthetic specific word or code.Though the visible electronic watermark data that inserts this kind can cause the reduction of picture quality, it can prevent the illegal conversion to user's digital picture intuitively.
The open No. of Japan Patent flat-disclosed the example of a visual electronic watermark data among the 8-241403.In this example, when the visible electronic watermark data is synthesized in the original image, under the situation that does not change color component, the brightness composition that only changes corresponding to the pixel of the dark-coloured part of electronic watermark data by a scaled value just can be synthesized to electronic watermark data in the original image.Scaled value is by color component, and the pixel value of random number and electronic watermark data determines.
Opposite, under the situation of not visible electronic watermark data, when electronic watermark data is embedded in the image, and prevent under the situation of picture quality reduction, can cause damage hardly to deriving from the picture quality of inserting electronic watermark data, thereby the electronic watermark data that embeds not directly perceived visual.Be embedded in the image if can discern author's information,, just can identify the author by detecting this electronic watermark data even carrying out after the bootlegging as electronic watermark data.In addition, forbid the information as electronic watermark data of duplicating if embedded, when reproducing unit detects when duplicating prohibition information, for example, reproducing unit can notify user images for forbidding copy data, or starts duplicating in the reproducing unit and forbid duplicating of mechanism restriction video tape recorder or similar device.
As a kind of not visible electronic watermark data is embedded method in the digital picture, in the method, customizing messages as electronic watermark data is embedded in certain part, and can not cause too much influence to picture quality (for example least significant bit of pixel (LSB) or similar quantity).Yet in the method, electronic watermark data can be deleted from image easily.For example, if having the image of electronic watermark data to carry out low-pass filtering to embedding, the information of the LSB of pixel can be lost, thereby electronic watermark data is under the situation of no any perceptible damage and deleted.In addition, as a kind of Image Compression, it reduces data volume by reducing to the amount of information in the less part of picture quality influence, carry out the compression and decompression process by view data, thereby can under to the less situation of picture quality influence, delete electronic watermark data electronic watermark data with embedding.
In addition, open the patent application spy of Japan and disclosed another kind of example among the flat 6-315131.Its described content is, when image being reproduced by the similitude of utilizing image in the successive frame, detect when promptly using the perimeter to replace this zone, the zone that this regional picture quality also can not be damaged, thus and the specific region is embedded in this zone by changing the data will be converted the zone.This method by reconstructed image with the following method, is at first discerned by embedded the zone and the transitional information of recognition data with the forfeiture signal section when duplicating image, proofreaies and correct identified region with the peripheral data in the identified region then.
Simultaneously disclosed a kind of method in Japanese kokai publication hei 5-30466, wherein the frequency of picture signal is converted, and embeds the information that frequency is lower than the video frequency scope that has been converted.The method is taken out original image signal with high pass filter, and extracts the recognition data that embeds with low pass filter.
As another one frequency inverted example, in the method, image is carried out frequency inverted, and after finishing frequency inverted, in picture signal, embed zone (on April 22nd, 1996, " Nikkei electronics " No.660,13 pages) with strong frequency content.The method is by electronic watermark data is embedded in the zone with strong frequency content, thereby even image is carried out such as compression and decompression process or filtering, electronic watermark data can not lost yet.As long as initial data is damaged, electronic watermark data just can not be deleted.In addition,, the interference between electronic watermark data can be prevented, by embedding data, the decrease in image quality of electronic watermark data can be prevented to have embedded in addition by adopting random number according to normal distribution.
The method that embeds electronic watermark data is as follows, with DCT (discrete cosine transform) or similar approach original image is converted to frequency content, in frequency domain, select to represent n the data f (1) of high value, f (2), ... .f (n), from average be 0 and variance be to select electronic watermark data w (1), w (2) 1 the normal distribution, ... w (n), calculate each i with following formula.
F(i)=f(i)+α×|f(i)|×w(i)
Wherein α is a conversion coefficient.
By F (i) is carried out anti-dct transform, obtain to embed the image of electronic watermark data.
Carry out the detection of electronic watermark data in the following method.In this detection method, and the electronic watermark data w (i) of original image f (i) and candidate (wherein i is 1,2 ... must be known n).
At first, the image transitions that will have electronic watermark data with DCT is a frequency content, corresponding to the f (1) that in frequency domain, has embedded electronic watermark data, f (2) ... the element value of f (n) is converted into F (1), and F (2) ... F (n).Calculate and obtain the statistics similarity degree of w (i) and W (i) by f (i) and F (i) with following formula.
w(i)=(F(i)-f(i))/f(i)
Then, use inner product of vector and following formula to calculate the statistics similarity degree of w (i) and W (i).
C=W·w/(WD/wD)
Wherein: W=(W (1), W (2) ..., W (n));
w=(w(1),w(2),...,w(n));
The absolute value of WD=vector W
The absolute value of wD=vector w; And
Inner product for vector.
When adding up similarity degree C, can predict to have embedded electronic watermark data greater than some particular value.
If with in the electronic watermark data embedded images, is effectively with the method when the author with original image detects the digital picture that is suspect to be the bootlegging product.The method needs original image, thereby when detecting the view data that is suspect to be the bootlegging product, the author can detect electronic watermark data, yet,, thereby in each terminal of transcriber, all can't detect electronic watermark data because transcriber does not possess original image.
Therefore, the method is improved, and used it for terminal is handled, be used in particular for mpeg system.In the method, original image is split into the piece of 8 pixels * 8 pixels, and electronic watermark data is embedded into as in the piece of processing unit and from wherein extracting electronic watermark data.
Carry out the telescopiny of electronic watermark data with following technology.At first, after in the mpeg decode technology of frequency domain, having carried out the conversion of discrete cosine, in alternating component from lower frequency content sequential definition f (1), f (2), ... f (n), from average be 0 and variance to be 1 normal distribution select w (1), w (2), ... w (n), calculate each i with following formula:
F(i)=f(i)+α×avg(f(i))×w(i)
Wherein α is a conversion coefficient, and avg (f (i)) is the part mean value of average absolute of three points of vicinity of f (i).
Then, replace f (i) to carry out the decode procedure of MPEG subsequently with F (i).
With following processes electronic watermark data is detected.In this detection method, do not need original image, but only need know electronic watermark data candidate value w (i) (wherein i is 1,2,3 ... n).
In the decompression of finishing MPEG or decode procedure, in the frequency domain of the piece behind re-quantization, determine F (1) in proper order from lower frequency content, F (2) ... F (n).Three some F (i-1) of the vicinity of F (i), F (i), the average absolute that reaches F (i+1) is defined as part mean value avg (F (i)), and electronic watermark data W (i) calculates with following formula:
W(i)=F(i)/avg(F(i))
And to each i computed image " with " WF (i).
Then, the inner product with vector reaches the statistics similarity degree that following formula calculates w (i) and WF (i).
C=WF·w/(WFD×wD)
When adding up similarity degree, can think to have embedded electronic watermark data greater than some particular value.
In the example that Japanese kokai publication hei 6-315131 is disclosed, electronic watermark information does not embed in all frames, thereby just can't prevent bootlegging for the frame that does not embed eletric watermark.In addition, this example hypothesis successive frame is a rest image, and does not have variation in successive frame, thereby in the film image that comprises the rapid movement image, can't discern the zone that wherein embeds electronic watermark data, makes it can't embed electronic watermark data.
In addition, in the example that Japanese kokai publication hei 5-30466 is disclosed, electronic watermark data is embedded into frequency and is lower than image is carried out in the frequency domain of frequency domain of frequency inverted, thereby uses high pass filter easily electronic watermark data to be deleted.
In addition, after image being carried out frequency inverted, electronic watermark data is embedded in the example of part stronger in the frequency content, electronic watermark data can't be deleted by filter or similar approach.Yet, when embedding a plurality of electronic watermark datas in the image, there is a problem, if promptly a plurality of electronic watermark data is embedded in the same frequency, electronic watermark data is interfering with each other, thereby has just reduced its detectability when detecting.
Summary of the invention
An object of the present invention is electronic watermark data inserter and detector, even wherein when a plurality of electronic watermark datas are inserted in the images, it can the phase mutual interference yet, and when detecting, can detect electronic watermark data accurately.
In the method according to insertion recognition data of the present invention (electronic watermark data), image to each piece of j * k pixel (wherein j and k are natural number) carries out frequency inverted, and when electronic watermark data is inserted in the frequency content that is converted, after the kind to the electronic watermark data that will insert changes, each piece is all inserted electronic watermark data, thereby under the non-interfering situation electronic watermark data is being inserted each other, and each piece is being detected.More specifically, also provide electronic watermark data insertion position table, it is represented in which piece in any electronic watermark data insertion image, and a suitable electronic watermark data is inserted in the zone shown in the region list.When the detected electrons watermark data, electronic watermark data extraction table similar during with insertion is used to the detected electrons watermark data.
In the present invention, when inserting a plurality of electronic watermark datas in the image, each piece is inserted different electronic watermark datas, thereby under the situation of not disturbing mutually and damaging, insert electronic watermark data, even same when embedding a plurality of electronic watermark data, detected electrons watermark data that also can be correct.
