47 .SH DESCRIPTION
48 .B wm_corvi_s
49 is a program to extract a signature from the DWT residue of
50 a watermarked image
51 .I file.
52 The
53 .B cmp_corvi_sig
54 program is used to test the extracted signature against the original signature.
55 The input image is in PGM (portable graymap) format.
56 .PP
57 If
58 .I file
59 or
60 .I ofile
61 is not specified, then standard input or standard output is
62 used.
63 .PP
64 .B gen_corvi_sig
65 is used to generate a signature file,
66 .B wm_corvi_e
67 embeds the signature into an image.
68 .PP
69 Please refer to Marco Corvi's paper "Wavelet-based image watermarking
70 for copyright protection", to get an idea about the algorithm.
71 .PP
72 .SH OPTIONS
73 .TP
74 .BI \-a \ number
75 Alpha factor that determines embedding strength of the signature.
76 Allows to override the setting in the signature file.
77 .TP
78 .BI \-e \ number
79 Wavelet filtering method for forward transformation.
80 Allows to override the setting in the signature file.
81 .TP
82 .BI \-f \ number
83 Wavelet filter number.
84 Allows to override the setting in the signature file.
85 .TP
86 .BI \-F \ ffile
87 Wavelet filter definition file.
88 Allows to override the setting in the signature file.
89 .TP
90 .BI \-g \ number
91 Wavelet filtering method for inverse transformation.

96 .TP
97 .BI \-i \ ifile
98 The original image.
99 .TP
100 .BI \-o \ ofile
101 Output watermarked image to the specified
102 .I file
103 instead of standard output.
104 .TP
