본 논문에서는 영상 데이터 압축을 위하여 2- 채널 멀티웨이브렛 변환을 적용하였다. 멀티웨이브렛 시스템은 음성 데이터 등의 비정상적인 신호의 압축에 스칼라 웨이브렛 시스템을 능가하는 우수한 성능을 나타내는 것으로 알려져 있으나 2차원 데이터인 영상 데이터의 경우에는 멀티웨이브렛 시스템 특유의 시각적 격자 오류가 발생하는 문제가 있다. 본문의 멀티웨이브렛 변환 및 압축 시스템에서는 멀티웨이브렛 효과에 의하여 발생하는 격자 오류를 제거하기 위하여 전후처리 필터링을 멀티웨이브렛 변환 및 압축 시스템에 접목하는 방법을 제시하였다. 또한, 제안한 시스템의 성능을 검증하기 위하여 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 수행하였으며 영상 데이터의 압축 기능 측면에서 스칼라 웨이브렛 시스템과 비교하였다. 이때, 비트 할당과 양자화를 위해서 전송율 결과는 제안한 멀티웨이브렛 변화 및 압축 시스템이 스칼라 웨이브렛 시스템 보다 영상 압축 성능 측면에서 1 ~ 2 dB 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 만약 SPIHT과 run-length 채널 부호화 기법 등의 우수한 압축 기술을 멀티웨이브렛 변환 시스템에 적용한다면 더욱 우수한 성능 개선 효과를 기대할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

웨이블릿 축소 기법으로 영상신호의 잡음을 제거할 때, 웨이블릿 계수들이 상관관계를 갖는 경우 잡음제거 효과가 저하된다. 멀티웨이블릿 변환된 계수 들은 사전 필터의 영향으로 상관관계를 갖게 된다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기위해 V Sterela에 의해 Universal 경계 값 적용을 위한 사전 필터를 새로 설계하거나 가중 값을 적용하는 기법이 제시되었다. 본 논문에서는 멀티웨이블릿 변환 영역에서 웨이블릿 축소 기법의 잡음제거 효과를 향상시키기 위해, 대역의 계수를 추정된 잡음편차로 나누는 계수 정규화기법을 Universal, SURE 및 GCV 경계 값에 적용하여 잡음을 제거하는 시도를 하였다. 각 경계 값들에 대한 PSNR을 비교하여 이 기법의 실용성을 확인하였다.

This paper presents content adaptive image watermark embedding using stochastic visual model based on multiwavelet transform. To embedding watermark, the original image is decomposed into 4 levels using a discrete multiwavelet transform, then a watermark is embedded into the JND(just noticeable differences) of the image each subband. The perceptual model is applied with a stochastic approach fer watermark embedding. This is based on the computation of a NVF(noise visibility function) that have local image properties. The perceptual model with content adaptive watermarking algorithm embed at the texture and edge region for more strongly embedded watermark by the JND. This method uses stationary Generalized Gaussian model characteristic because watermark has noise properties. The experiment results of simulation of the proposed watermark embedding method using stochastic visual model based on multiwavelet transform techniques was found to be excellent invisibility and robustness.

본 논문에서는 멀티웨이브릿 변환영역에서 연속부대역 양자화 및 지각 모델을 이용한 내용기반 적응적 워터마킹 기법을 제안한다. 제안한 방법의 워터마크는 멀티웨이브릿을 통해 분해된 계수들 중 지각적 중요계수(perceptually significant coefficients, PSCs)에 삽입된다. 고주파 부대역에서의 PSC는 연속부대역양자화(successive subband quantization, SSQ)에 의해 결정된다. 문턱값은 각 부대역내의 최대계수의 절반에서 결정된다. 지각모델은 워터마크 삽입을 위한 국부적 영상 특성을 가지는 NVF (noise visibility function)에 기반한 통계적 방법을 적용한다. 이 모델은 워터마크가 노이즈특성을 가지므로 정상상태 일반화 가우스모델을 사용한다. 또한 워터마크는 각 부대역 영역의 분산과 형상계수 (shape parameter)에 의해 추정함으로써 평탄영역과 에지나 텍스쳐 영역에 따라 내용 기반 적응적 척도를 얻는다. 제안한 멀티웨이브릿 변환 기반에서의 워터마크 삽입 방법에 대한 실험 결과 우수한 강인성과 비가시성을 확인하였다.

This paper is proposed a watermarking technique for copyright protection of multimedia contents. We proposed adaptive watermark detection algorithm using stochastic perceptual model and statistical decision method in DMWT(discrete multi wavelet transform) domain. The stochastic perceptual model calculates NVF(noise visibility function) based on statistical characteristic in the DMWT. Watermark detection algorithm used the likelihood ratio depend on Bayes' decision theory by reliable detection measure and Neyman-Pearson criterion. To reduce visual artifact of image, in this paper, adaptively decide the embedding number of watermark based on DMWT, and then the watermark embedding strength differently at edge and texture region and flat region embedded when watermark embedding minimize distortion of image. In experiment results, the proposed statistical decision method based on multiwavelet domain could decide watermark detection.

This paper presents an adaptive digital image watermarking scheme that uses successive subband quantization (SSQ) and perceptual modeling. Our approach performs a multiwavelet transform to determine the local image properties optimal and the watermark embedding location. The multiwavelet used in this paper is the DGHM multiwavelet with approximation order 2 to reduce artifacts in the reconstructed image. A watermark is embedded into the perceptually significant coefficients (PSC) of the image in each subband. The PSCs in high frequency subbands are selected by setting the thresholds to one half of the largest coefficient in each subband. After the PSCs in each subband are selected, a perceptual model is combined with a stochastic approach based on the noise visibility function to produce the final watermark.

This paper proposes a robust, imperceptible block-based digital video watermarking algorithm that makes use of the Speeded Up Robust Feature (SURF) technique. The SURF technique is used to extract the most important features of a video. A discrete multiwavelet transform (DMWT) domain in conjunction with a discrete cosine transform is used for embedding a watermark into feature blocks. The watermark used is a binary image. The proposed algorithm is further improved for robustness by an error-correction code to protect the watermark against bit errors. The same watermark is embedded temporally for every set of frames of an input video to improve the decoded watermark correlation. Extensive experimental results demonstrate that the proposed DMWT domain video watermarking using SURF features is robust against common image processing attacks, motion JPEG2000 compression, frame averaging, and frame swapping attacks. The quality of a watermarked video under the proposed algorithm is high, demonstrating the imperceptibility of an embedded watermark.

Viscoelastic sandwich structures (VSSs) are widely used in mechanical equipment, but in the service process, they always suffer from aging which affect the whole performance of equipment. Therefore, aging state recognition of VSSs is significant to monitor structural state and ensure the reliability of equipment. However, non-stationary vibration response signals and weak state change characteristics make this task challenging. This paper proposes a novel method for this task based on adaptive second generation wavelet packet transform (ASGWPT) and multiwavelet support vector machine (MWSVM). For obtaining sensitive feature parameters to different structural aging states, the ASGWPT, its wavelet function can adaptively match the frequency spectrum characteristics of inspected vibration response signal, is developed to process the vibration response signals for energy feature extraction. With the aim to improve the classification performance of SVM, based on the kernel method of SVM and multiwavelet theory, multiwavelet kernel functions are constructed, and then MWSVM is developed to classify the different aging states. In order to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method, different aging states of a VSS are created through the hot oxygen accelerated aging of viscoelastic material. The application results show that the proposed method can accurately and automatically recognize the different structural aging states and act as a promising approach to aging state recognition of VSSs. Furthermore, the capability of ASGWPT in processing the vibration response signals for feature extraction is validated by the comparisons with conventional second generation wavelet packet transform, and the performance of MWSVM in classifying the structural aging states is validated by the comparisons with traditional wavelet support vector machine.
