25 .SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
26 .B wm_koch_d
|
|
27 is a program to extract signature bits from the 8x8 DCT coefficients of
|
|
28 an image, embedded with the
|
|
29 .B wm_koch_e
|
|
30 watermarking program.
|
|
31 .B cmp_koch_sig
|
|
32 program compares and tests the extracted signature against the original signature.
|
|
33 .PP
|
|
34 The input image is in PGM (portable graymap) format.
|
|
35 .PP
|
|
36 If
|
|
37 .I file
|
|
38 or
|
|
39 .I ofile
|
|
40 is not specified, then standard input or standard output is
|
|
41 used. The signature
|
|
42 .I sfile
|
|
43 is a mandatory parameter however.
|
|
44 .PP
|
|
45 Please refer to E. Koch's paper "Towards Robust and Hidden
|
|
46 Image Copyright", 1995, to get an idea about the algorithm.

71 Signed (watermarked) input image in PGM format. Default: standard input.

|
|
73 .SH OUTPUT
|
|
74 The extracted signature is written to standard output
|
|
75 or, optionally, to
|
|
76 .I ofile.
|
|
77 .PP
|
|
78 The extraction algorithm examines the relationship between two random
|
|
79 coefficients of randomly selected 8x8 DCT blocks to reconstruct the
|
|
80 signature bits.
|
|
81 .PP
|
|
82 The output file has the following format:
|
|
83 .TP
|
|
84 .B KCSG
|
|
85 Magic to identify file type.
|
|
86 .TP
|
|
87 .I number
|
|
88 The length of the signature in bits.
|
|
89 .TP
|
|
90 .I number
|
|
91 The quality/robustness factor.
|
|
92 .TP
|
|
93 .I number
|
|
94 The seed value for the pseudo-random number generator.
|
|
95 .TP
|
|
96 .I string
|
|
97 The actual signature bytes.
