Definitions
- the invention relates to a method and an arrangement for embedding auxiliary data, such as a watermark in an information signal, e.g. a video signal, an audio signal, or more generally, multimedia content.
- auxiliary data such as a watermark in an information signal, e.g. a video signal, an audio signal, or more generally, multimedia content.
- the invention also relates to a method and arrangement for detecting said watermark pattern and a device for recording and/or playing back an information signal.
- the auxiliary data may e.g. be a digital watermark, which preferably (but not necessarily) is an imperceptible label that is embedded/added to an information/host signal e.g. comprising multimedia content, video, audio, etc.
- the label may contain for instance copyright information, the name of the owner of the material, rights for a user etc.
- the information that may be stored in or derived on the basis of a watermark is usually referred to as a payload and is expressed in bits.
- the term 'payload' of embedded watermarks also refers to the amount of information that may be stored in or derived on the basis of an embedded watermark.
- the term 'payload' refers to actual values (e.g. a bit-string) that are transferred, embedded, derived, etc. on the basis of a watermark.
- the watermark is a pseudo-random noise sequence (pn-sequence), which is added to a host signal/information signal in either the time, spatial or a transformed domain (e.g. Fourier, Discrete Cosine or Wavelet Domain).
- pn-sequence pseudo-random noise sequence
- a host signal/information signal in either the time, spatial or a transformed domain (e.g. Fourier, Discrete Cosine or Wavelet Domain).
- Watermark detection is then usually based on a correlation between the watermark and the embedded host signal. In this case we have a 1 bit payload for the watermark, i.e. the noise sequence is either present or it is not present.
- a recognized problem in the security of watermarking is the so-called copy attack.
- This attack estimates a watermark from an embedded host signal and subsequently the estimated watermark can be transplanted in a second signal. If the second signal was originally unmarked then a signal is generated which in terms of watermarking assumes identity of the embedded host signal. Further if the second signal was already marked with a watermark then the newly created signal might confuse watermark detectors.
- one option is to make the watermark dependent on the content of the host signal. This is done by extracting a robust signature (a set of robust features) from the content of the host signal and make the watermark dependent on this signature, e.g. as disclosed in patent application WO 01/39121.
- a robust signature is a set of variables that is representative of the essentials of the host signal. If e.g. the host signal is a video signal, then ideally a slight change in the image represented by the video signal leads to no change in the signature, whereas a complete different image results in a radically different signature.
- the above method leads to detection problems when the signature changes very quickly such as a "flashy" video clip, h known watermarking systems, the watermark is embedded in frames of the host signal.
- all the frames in a time period of e.g. 2 seconds are accumulated in a buffer.
- the buffer is correlated with the watermark pattern, and the result is compared to a threshold.
- a problem with the above-described idea is when a watermark is detected in e.g. ten seconds of video material, the signature might have changed four times in this period. In this case, the watermark pattern also changes four times in the detection period, and hence the watermarks do not add up coherently. This leads to a lesser improvement in detection signal to noise ratio.
- each signature being a set of robust features in the information signal, the robust signatures being determined in a predetermined time interval of said information signal
- the corresponding method (and corresponding arrangement) of detecting auxiliary data in an information signal comprises the steps of detecting a message in a time dependent information signal with an embedded watermark pattern, comprising the steps of:
- the information in the payload of the watermark depends on the information signal and the message can only be detected in combination with information from the information signal. Thereby it is not possible to copy the watermark and use it on another information signal with different information/content.
- Figure 1 shows an embodiment of an embedding arrangement according to the present invention
- Figure 2 illustrates a schematic diagram of a detector according to the present invention
- Figure 3 illustrates a detailed embodiment of a detector according to the present invention
- Figure 4 shows a device for recording and/or playing back an information multi-media bit stream with an embedded watermark.
- the invention will be described as a system for embedding/attaching labels, preferably invisible to the human eye, to video content but the teachings can obviously be applied to any other contents including audio and multimedia. Additionally, an embodiment for detecting labels is also described.
- FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of an embedding arrangement according to the present invention.
- a source provides an information signal X to be embedded with auxiliary information/a watermark.
- the source may e.g. provide an image, an audio signal, a signal with multimedia content, etc.
- the information signal X is time dependent.
- watermark embedding means (105), which adds a watermark W to the information signal X.
- the watermark W is generated by first extracting a number of robust signatures from the information signal X in a predetermined time interval, each robust signature is a set of robust features extracted from the content of the information signal X.
- the extraction is performed using signature extraction means (101) and the output of the signature extraction means (101) is a signature S.
- the signature S is used as input to the payload generating means (103) together with a message M.
- the payload generating means (103) determine a payload P as a signature dependent, invertible function f s ( • ) of the message M.
- the payload P and thereby watermark pattern W is embedded in the information signal P by the watermark embedding means (105) and an information signal (Y) is generated comprising the watermark pattern W.
- the payload P is generated by concatenating the message M and a function g( • ) of the signature S, e.g.
- the signature could be chosen randomly, this would require memory means in order to use the same signature when the payload is to be decoded during watermark detection.
- the signature could also be chosen between the number of signatures as the n-th signature, e.g. the 5.th signature extracted from the information signal.
- the signature could be chosen as the signature found after a predetermined number of seconds (in the interval of T seconds during which the payload is kept constant).
- the most robust signature may be chosen, whereby the probability of failure during decoding would decrease.
- the most robust signature could be chosen using a predefined robustness measure.
- FIG. 2 illustrates a schematic diagram of a detector according to the present invention. Shown is an information/host signal Y, which as an example is time dependent and possible contains a watermark with a message M to be detected.
- each robust signature is a set of robust features extracted from the content of the information signal X.
- the extraction is performed using signature extraction means (201) and the output of the signature extraction means (201) is a signature S.
- the payload P is extracted from the information signal Y using a watermark detection means (203 ) .
- the signature is used to generate an inverse signature dependent function fs "1 and the message M is decoded from the payload P using the payload P as input to the inverse signature dependent function fs _1 ( • ),
- the signature can be chosen according to the same methods as described earlier in connection with the embedding process. When choosing the signature it is important that the signature used during the embedding process is also used during detection. A more detailed embodiment of the watermark detector is shown in figure 3.
- the signatures are extracted from the information signal Y by the signature extraction means (301). Then all the collected signatures ⁇ Sl,..,Sn ⁇ from a predefined time interval are collected by signature collection means (302). Means for checking the integrity (303) then combines the signatures ⁇ Sl,..,Sn ⁇ with a payload extracted from the information signal using a watermark detector (304). Information about the integrity can then be used for controlling access restrictions to the information signal.
- the embedded information may identify, for example, the copyright holder, a description of the content and/or rights associated with the use of the content. In DVD copy protection it would allow material to be labelled as 'copy once', 'never copy', 'copy no more', etc.
- Figure 4 shows a device, e.g. a DVD player, for recording and/or playing back an MPEG encoded bit stream with an embedded watermark.
- the bit stream is recorded/stored on an information medium like a DVD disc 401.
- the recorded signal is applied to an output terminal 403 via a switch 402.
- the output terminal 403 is connected to an external MPEG decoder and display device (not shown).
- the DVD player may not play back video signals with a predetermined embedded watermark, unless other conditions are fulfilled which are not relevant to the present invention.
- watermarked signals may only be played back if the medium 401 includes a so-called "wobble" key.
- the DVD player comprises a watermark detector 404 as described above. The detector receives the recorded signal and controls the switch 403 in response to whether or not the watermark is detected and/or what the value of the auxiliary data/the message signifies.
