A New Video authentication Template Based on Bubble random Sampling

The rapid growth of digital video distribution has highlighted new important issues in digital rights management, as well as in other important applications such as video authentication. Digital watermarking offers a promising solution against piracy and it is therefore a very active area of research. However, robustness to video manipulations, either malicious or not, is a demanding task because there are many different types of possible attacks that can be envisioned. Among these, geometric and temporal distortions play the major roles. The countermeasures against these specific attacks are still an open challenge. In this paper we propose the use of a video authentication template based on bubble random sampling. The authentication template is introduced in order to ensure temporal synchronization and to prevent content tampering. The simulation results are encouraging and this approach is therefore worth further development efforts
