40 .SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
41 .B wm_corvi_e
|
|
42 is a program to embed a signature (watermark) from
|
|
43 .I sfile
|
|
44 into the DWT residue of an image
|
|
45 .I file
|
|
46 and output a signed (watermarked) image
|
|
47 .I ofile.
|
|
48 Both, input and output image,
|
|
49 are in PGM (portable graymap) format.
|
|
50 .PP
|
|
51 If
|
|
52 .I file
|
|
53 or
|
|
54 .I ofile
|
|
55 is not specified, then standard input or standard output is
|
|
56 used. The signature
|
|
57 .I sfile
|
|
58 is a mandatory parameter however.
|
|
59 .PP
|
|
60 .B gen_corvi_sig
|
|
61 is used to generate a signature file,
|
|
62 .B wm_corvi_d
|
|
63 extracts a signature from a watermarked image and
|
|
64 .B cmp_corvi_sig
|
|
65 allows to compare and test an extracted watermark against the original
|
|
66 signature.
|
|
67 .PP
|
|
68 Please refer to Marco Corvi's paper "Wavelet-based image watermarking
|
|
69 for copyright protection", to get an idea about the algorithm.

|
|
95 .TP
|
|
96 .BI \-o \ ofile
|
|
97 Output watermarked image to the specified
|
|
98 .I file
|
|
99 instead of standard output.
|
|
100 .TP
|
|
101 .BI \-q \ number
|
|
102 Set quantization/quality factor. Overrides the setting in the signature
|
|
103 file.
|
|
104 .TP
|
|
105 .BI \-s \ sfile
|
|
106 The signature file to embed into the input image. See
|
|
107 .B gen_corvi_sig
|
|
108 (1) for a description of the file format. Mandatory parameter.
|
|
109 .IR file
|
|
110 Input image in PGM format to sign (watermark). Default: standard input.
|
|
111 .TP
|
|
112 .BI \-v \ number
|
|
113 Verbosity level. Specify higher numbers for more informatative
|
|
114 output. Default value: 0.
|
|
115 .TP
|
|
116 .I file
|
|
117 The image in PGM format to be watermarked.

118 .PP
|
|
119 .SH OUTPUT
|
|
120 The signed (watermarked) image in PGM format is written to standard output
|
|
121 or, optionally, to
|
|
122 .I ofile.
|
|
123 The length of the signature (watermark) determines the level of the
|
|
124 image residue (coarse image) where the signature is embedded.
