Abstract

This paper proposes a scalable and credible watermarking algorithm towards Scalable Video Coding (SVC) which aims to build Copyright Protection System (CPS). Firstly, we investigate where to embed watermark to ensure it can be detected in base layer as well as enhancement layer and what does wavelet Just Noticeable Distortion (JND) for video consist of, then a model that combines frequency masking, contrast masking, luminance adaption and temporal masking has been proposed. Finally whether watermark exists or not can be judged by adaptive detection which guarantees the proposed method has a good legal credibility, since its False Alarm Rate (FAR) closes to zero. The scalability and credibility of the proposed method is examined on JSVM (the H.264/MPEG-4 AVC scalable video extension) platform.
