Abstract

On the basis of support vector regression (SVR), a new adaptive blind digital audio watermarking algorithm is proposed. This algorithm embeds the template information and watermark signal into the original audio by adaptive quantization according to the local audio correlation and human auditory masking. The procedure of watermark extraction is as follows. First, the corresponding features of template and watermark are extracted from the watermarked audio. Then, the corresponding feature of template is selected as training sample to train SVR and an SVR model is returned. Finally, the actual outputs are predicted according to the corresponding feature of watermark, and the digital watermark is recovered from the watermarked audio by using the well-trained SVR. Experimental results show that our audio watermarking scheme is not only inaudible, but also robust against various common signal processing (such as noise adding, resampling, requantization, and MP3 compression), and also has high practicability. In addition, the algorithm can extract the watermark without the help of the original digital audio signal, and the performance of it is better than other SVM audio watermarking schemes.
