摘要： A form of error processing is used to decode steganographic messages embedded in image and audio signals in the presence of distortion, which tends to introduce errors in steganographic data communication. Content signals with auxiliary embedded data are analyzed to detect embedded message signals. Confidence values are assigned to the message signals and used to ascertain whether a message has been accurately detected. Error processing enables accurate message extraction in the presence of “soft errors” in the embedded message signal. This error processing enables more effective recovery of the steganographic message from content signals that undergo distortion and/or loss transformations after being embedded with steganographic data.
摘要翻译：在存在失真的情况下，使用错误处理的形式对嵌入在图像和音频信号中的隐写消息进行解码，这倾向于在隐写数据通信中引入错误。分析具有辅助嵌入数据的内容信号以检测嵌入式消息信号。将置信度值分配给消息信号，并用于确定消息是否已被准确检测。在嵌入式消息信号中存在“软错误”的情况下，错误处理能够实现精确的消息提取。该错误处理使得能够在嵌入隐写数据之后从经历失真和/或丢失变换的内容信号更有效地恢复隐写消息。

摘要： The detailed technology relates to optical sensors, and more particularly relates to characterizing local behaviors of a sensor, and using such characterization information in a sensor-based system. In a particular arrangement, output signals produced from each of plural sensing elements in a 2D optical sensor are checked to determine whether they tend to differ from output signals produced by one or more neighboring sensing elements—when combined across plural captured image frames. The results are stored in an associated memory, and can be consulted in determining how image data captured from the sensor should be used. The technology is particularly illustrated in the context of a watermark decoder for a cell phone camera. A variety of other features and arrangements are also detailed.

摘要： Watermark detection in an image or the like can be optimized by exploiting the innate biases in the image to emphasize the watermark signal. The watermark signal can be trial-located with different origins in the image to find one that yields improved results. Similarly, the image can be processed (e.g., by changing resolution, rotation, or compression) so as to change the innate biases to better reinforce the watermark signal. Compression of an image can be done in accordance with a desired identifier, with the compressor deciding which image components to retain and which to discard based, in part, on the identifier that is to be associated with the image. The techniques are also applicable to other forms of content, such as audio. A variety of other arrangements are also detailed.
摘要翻译：可以通过利用图像中的固有偏差来强调水印信号来优化图像等中的水印检测。水印信号可以在图像中以不同的起源进行试验，以找到产生改进结果的水印信号。类似地，可以处理图像（例如，通过改变分辨率，旋转或压缩），以便改变先天的偏差以更好地加强水印信号。图像的压缩可以根据期望的标识符进行，压缩器部分地基于与图像相关联的标识符来决定要保留哪些图像分量以及哪个丢弃。这些技术也适用于其他形式的内容，如音频。还详细介绍了各种其他安排。

摘要： A method of managing content, and in particular, managing content on the Internet retrieves a web page that includes an image and detects whether the image included within the web page is embedded with a digital watermark. It generates an indicia associated with an image included in the web page that is embedded with a digital watermark. The indicia indicate to the user which images include watermarks. The watermarks may be used to convey links to related web pages or specific information about the images, such as usage rights and licensing information. Variations of this method create image bookmarks to web pages including images using thumbnails of those images. A content management system comprises a first program for retrieving web pages including images. It also includes a second program for extracting an image from a web page, creating a thumbnail of the image, and forming an image bookmark linking the thumbnail to the web page that the image has been extracted from. The thumbnails are used to create a visual index to corresponding web pages from which the images originated on the Internet. A method of visual indexing of content on a network, such as the Internet, retrieves a web page, extracts an image included on the web page, generates a thumbnail of the image, and creates a link between the thumbnail and a location of the web page from which the image has been extracted.
