Abstract

See full text

A watermark embedder decomposes a media signal from its perceptual domain to subbands and embeds a message signal in the edge information of neighboring coefficients of those subbands. A compatible watermark decoder decomposes the watermarked signal into subbands and demodulates the message signal from the edge information of neighboring coefficients. In addition to the message signal, the embedder may also encode an orientation signal to synchronize the decoder with the embedded signal in a distorted version of the watermarked signal. The watermark system may be used in a variety of applications, including robustly carrying metadata or links to metadata, and to detect alterations of the watermarked signal, such as alterations due to printing, scanning, compression, etc.
