An on-line blind source separation (BSS) algorithm is presented in this paper under the assumption that sources are temporarily correlated signals. By using only some of the observed samples in a recursive calculation, the whitening matrix and the rotation matrix could be approximately obtained through the measurement of only one cost function. SimNations show goad performance of the algorithm.
An important problem constraining the practical implementation of robust watermarking technology is the low robustness of existing algorithms against geometrical distortions. An adaptive blind watermarking scheme utilizing neural network for synchronization is proposed in this paper,which allows to recover watermark even if the image has been subjected to generalized geometrical transforms. Through classification of image’s brightness, texture and contrast sensitivity utilizing fuzzy clustering theory and human visual system, more robust watermark is adaptively embedded in DWT domain. In order to register rotation, scaling and translation parameters, feedforward neural network is utilized to learn image geometric pattern represented by six combined low order image moments. The distortion can be inverted after determining the affine distortion applied to the image and watermark can be extracted in a standard way without original image. It only needs a trained neural network. Experimental results demonstrate its advantages over previous method in terms of computational effectiveness and parameter estimation accuracy. It can embed more robust watermark under certain visual distance, and effectively resist JPEG compression, noise and geometric attacks.
A new image watermarking scheme is proposed to resist rotation, scaling and translation (RST) attacks. Six combined low order image moments are utilized to represent image information on rotation, scaling and translation. Affine transform parameters are registered by feedforward neural networks. Watermark is adaptively embedded in discrete wavelet transform (DWT) domain while watermark extraction is carried out without original image after attacked watermarked image has been synchronized by making inverse transform through parameters learned by neural networks. Experimental results show that the proposed scheme can effectively register affine transform parameters, embed watermark more robustly and resist geometric attacks as well as JPEG2000 compression.
