  • In this paper, to decide the watermark embedding positions and embed the watermark we use the subband tee structure which is presented in the wavelet domain and the edge information in the spatial domain. The significant frequency region is estimated by the subband searching from the higher frequency subband to the lower frequency subband. LH1 subband which has the higher frequency in tree structure of the wavelet domain is divided into 4${\times}$4 submatrices, and the threshold which is used in the watermark embedding is obtained by the blockmatrix which is consists by the average of 4${\times}$4 submatrices. Also the watermark embedding position, Keymap is generated by the blockmatrix for the energy distribution in the frequency domain and the edge information in the spatial domain. The watermark is embedded into the wavelet coefficients using the Keymap and the random sequence generated by LFSR(Linear feedback shift register). Finally after the inverse wavelet transform the watermark embedded image is obtained. the proposed watermarking algorithm showed PSNR over 2㏈ and had the higher results from 2% to 8% in the comparison with the previous research for the attack such as the JPEG compression and the general image processing just like blurring, sharpening and gaussian noise.

  • In this paper, we propose the possibility of introducing chaotic sequences into digital watermarking systems as potential substitutes to commonly used pseudo noise sequences. Chaotic sequences have several good properties including the availability of a great number of them, the ease of their generation, as well as their sensitive dependence on their initial conditions. And the quantization does not destroy the good property. So this paper proposes a method that transforms Hangul text to chaotic sequence. And we presents how the Hangul text is expressed by an implied data and the implied data is regenerated into the original text. In this paper, we use this implied Hangul text for watermarking.

  • Information-hiding technology is introduced into an optical ghost imaging encryption scheme, which can greatly improve the security of the encryption scheme. However, in the current mainstream research on camouflage ghost imaging encryption, information hiding techniques such as digital watermarking can only hide 1/4 resolution information of a cover image, and most secret images are simple binary images. In this paper, we propose an equal-resolution image-hiding encryption scheme based on deep learning and computational ghost imaging. With the equal-resolution image steganography network based on deep learning (ERIS-Net), we can realize the hiding and extraction of equal-resolution natural images and increase the amount of encrypted information from 25% to 100% when transmitting the same size of secret data. To the best of our knowledge, this paper combines image steganography based on deep learning with optical ghost imaging encryption method for the first time. With deep learning experiments and simulation, the feasibility, security, robustness, and high encryption capacity of this scheme are verified, and a new idea for optical ghost imaging encryption is proposed.

  • 디지털 워터 마킹은 일반적으로 지적 재산권의 보호를 위해서 컨텐츠 소유자가 자신의 컨텐츠에 저작권 정보를 나타내는 워터마크를 삽입하여 제 3자가 허가 없이 디지털 컨텐츠의 사용을 할 경우 불법적인 사용을 막아내는 데 사용된다. 본 논문에서는 워터마킹 기법의 새로운 적용 예로써 인터넷 또는 무선 환경을 통한 멀티미디어 데이터 전송 시 수신된 데이터의 품질을 사용자 측면에서 측정 할 수 있는 방안, 즉 디지털 워터마킹 기법의 새로운 적용 예에 대하여 고찰하였다. 제안하는 방법은 네트워크 상에서 발생하는 패킷 손실, 지연 등의 통계적 해석으로 수신 된 멀티미디어 데이터의 품질을 평가하는 척도로 사용하는 기존의 방법과는 달리 사용자 측면에서 눈으로 보이는 데이터의 일그러짐 정도나, 음질의 왜곡을 정량적인 측정치로 보여 줄 수 있음으로써, 오디오 데이터의 QoS(Quality of Service)를 보장하기 위한 수단이나 수신품질에 따른 차별화 된 과금 결정 등에 활용할 수 있을 것이다. 이를 위해 본 논문에서는 멀티미디어 데이터의 품질 측정을 위한 블라인드 워터마킹 기법을 적용하고 다양한 비트 에러율 (Bit Error Rate, BER)을 갖는 BSC(Binary Symmetric Channel)에 적용시켜 봄으로써 멀티미디어 데이터에 삽입된 워터마크 신호의 검출정도와 수신된 미디어 신호의 PSNR비가 선형적인 분포를 가지게 됨을 확인 할 수 있었다.

  • 최근 웨이블릿 변환을 이용하여 저주파수 부대역 신호를 반복적으로 분해하고 삽입된 워터마크 비트에 따라 특정 부대역 신호에 두개의 다른 반향 중 하나를 삽입하는 반향 삽입 기법을 제안하였다. 이 기법은 오디오 신호의 주파수 특성을 고려했기 때문에 시간 영역에서의 기존의 반향 삽입 기법에 비해 비가청성(inaudibility), 워터마크의 강인성(robustness) 및 용적성(capacity)을 모두 증가시킬 수 있다. 기존의 부대역 신호 기반 반향 삽입 기법이 단일 반향 커널만을 이용하였으나, 본 논문에서는 부대역 신호에 다중 반향 커널을 이용한 반향 삽입 기법을 제안한다. 이 기법은 주관적 왜곡(perceptibility)과 SNR(signal to Noise Ratio)과 같은 객관적인 왜곡 면에서, 원본 오디오 신호의 왜곡을 줄일 수 있다. 실험 결과를 통하여 기존의 방법에 비해 제안된 방법이 SNR과 DR(Detection Rate) 모두 좋은 성능을 보여 제안된 방법의 유효성을 입증하였다.

  • Digital Rights Management (DRM) technology has been widely used for protecting the digital contents over the recent years. But the digital contents protected by DRM are vulnerable to various video memory capture programs when DRM packaged contents are decrypted on the consumers' multimedia devices. To make up for this kind of DRM security holes the Forensic Marking (FM) technology is being deployed into the content protection area. Most leading DRM companies as well as big electronics companies like Thomson and Philips already have commercial FM solutions. Forensic Marking technology uses the digital watermarking to insert the user information such as user id, content playing time and etc. into the decrypted and decoded content at the playback time on the consumer devices. When the content containing watermarked user information (Forensic Mark) is illegally captured and distributed over the Internet, the FM detection system takes out the inserted FM from the illegal contents and informs contents service providers of the illegal hacker's information. In this paper the requirements and test conditions are discussed for the commercial Forensic Marking systems.

  • Reversible image watermarking, a type of digital data hiding, is capable of recovering the original image and extracting the hidden message with precision. A number of reversible algorithms have been proposed to achieve a high embedding capacity and a low distortion. While numerous algorithms for the achievement of a favorable performance regarding a small embedding capacity exist, the main goal of this paper is the achievement of a more favorable performance regarding a larger embedding capacity and a lower distortion. This paper therefore proposes a reversible data hiding algorithm for which a novel piecewise 2D auto-regression (P2AR) predictor that is based on a rhombus-embedding scheme is used. In addition, a minimum description length (MDL) approach is applied to remove the outlier pixels from a training set so that the effect of a multiple linear regression can be maximized. The experiment results demonstrate that the performance of the proposed method is superior to those of previous methods.

  • H.264와 같은 고압축 비디오처리 기법의 등장으로 기존의 MPEG2와 같은 비디오 압축에서 H.264로의 비디오 트랜스코딩이 증가되고 있지만, 고압축 비디오 콘텐츠의 온라인과 오프라인에서 불법배포는 현재 문제가 되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 다이렉트쇼 환경 기반에서 고압축과 저작권 보호를 위한 비디오 트랜스 코딩과 워터마킹을 구현한다. 제안한 방법은 다이렉트쇼의 필터를 이용하여 MPG,WMV를 H.264로 비디오 트랜스코딩을 하고 이와 함께 비디오의 공간영역 특성을 이용하여 저작권 보호를 위한 강인한 워터마킹을 구현한다. 실험 결과 MPG,WMV를 H.264로 트랜스코딩에서 H.264의 QP(Quantization parameter)를 15로 하고 화면간 반복을 10프레임으로 하였을 경우 저작권 보호를 위하여 삽입된 워터마크는 평균 99% 검출됨을 확인하였고, 또한 트랜스코딩중 워터마크삽입에 따른 시간지연은 전체 트랜스코딩시간의 5.7%가 됨을 확인할 수 있었다. 제안한 방법은 저작권 삽입 기능가지는 트랜스코딩 소프트웨어를 필요로 하는 Digital TV방송, IPTV, DVD 사업에 사용 될 수 있을 것이다.

  • In this paper, we present a new echo kernel, which is a modification of polar echo kernel. to improve the detection performance and robustness against attacks. Polar echo kernel may take advantage of large detection margin from the polarity of inserted echo signal, but its poor frequency response in low frequency band degrades sound quality. To solve this problem, we applied bipolar echo pulses to the polar echo kernel. Using the proposed echo kernel the distributions of autocepstrum peaks fur data ‘0’ and ‘1’ are located more distant and improvement of detection performance is achieved. It also makes the low frequency band flat so that the timbre difference in the polar echo kernel can be removed to reproduce the imperceptible sound qualify. Informal listening tests as well as robustness test against attacks were performed to evaluate the proposed echo kernel. Experimental results demonstrated the superiority of the proposed echo kernel to both conventional unipolar and polar echo kernels
