50 .SH DESCRIPTION
51 .B gen_corvi_sig
52 is a program to generate a signature to be
53 embedded with the
54 .B wm_corvi_e
55 watermarking program and extracted with the
56 .B wm_corvi_d
57 program. The
58 .B cmp_corvi_sig
59 program is used to compare and test an
60 extracted signature with the original signature.

62 Please refer to Marco Corvi's paper "Wavlet-based image watermarking
63 for copyright protection", to get an idea of the algorithm.

65 .SH OPTIONS
66 .TP
67 .BI \-a \ number
68 Alpha factor that determines embedding strength of the signature. Default
69 value 0.3.
70 .TP
71 .BI \-d \ number
72 Deviation for the normal distributed signature values, default 1.0.
73 .TP
74 .BI \-e \ number
75 The filtering method for the forward wavelet transform. Default value
76 1.
77 .TP
78 .BI \-F \ ffile
79 The filter definition file. Default
80 .I filter.dat.
81 .TP
82 .BI \-f \ number
83 Use the
84 .I number
85 filter from the filter definition file,
86 .I ffile. Default: 1.
87 .TP
88 .BI \-g \ number
89 The filtering method for the inverse wavelet transform. Default value
90 2.
91 .TP
92 .B \-h
93 Print a help message.
94 .TP
95 .BI \-m \ number
96 Mean of the normal distributed signature values, default 0.0.
97 .TP
98 .BI \-n \ number
99 Length of the watermark. Default value 100.
100 .TP
101 .BI \-o \ file
102 Output signature to the specified
103 .I file
104 instead of standard output.
105 .TP
106 .BI \-q \ number
107 Quantization/quality factor. Default value 3.
108 .TP
109 .BI \-s \ number
110 Specify a seed value to initialize the pseudo-random number
111 generator; if not specified, time and pid (process id) are used
112 to initialize the pseudo-random number generator.
