Fast watermarking of MPEG-1/2 streams using compressed-domain perceptual embedding and a generalized correlator detector
A novel technique is proposed for watermarking of MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 compressed video streams. The proposed scheme is applied directly in the domain of MPEG-1 system streams and MPEG-2 program streams (multiplexed streams). Perceptual models are used during the embedding process in order to avoid degradation of the video quality. The watermark is detected without the use of the original video sequence. A modified correlation-based detector is introduced that applies nonlinear preprocessing before correlation. Experimental evaluation demonstrates that the proposed scheme is able to withstand several common attacks. The resulting watermarking system is very fast and therefore suitable for copyright protection of compressed video
A Survey on Multimedia Content Protection Mechanisms
Cloud computing has emerged to influence multimedia content providers like Disney to render their multimedia services. When content providers use the public cloud, there are chances to have pirated copies further leading to a loss in revenues. At the same time, technological advancements regarding content recording and hosting made it easy to duplicate genuine multimedia objects. This problem has increased with increased usage of a cloud platform for rendering multimedia content to users across the globe. Therefore it is essential to have mechanisms to detect video copy, discover copyright infringement of multimedia content and protect the interests of genuine content providers. It is a challenging and computationally expensive problem to be addressed considering the exponential growth of multimedia content over the internet. In this paper, we surveyed multimedia-content protection mechanisms which throw light on different kinds of multimedia, multimedia content modification methods, and techniques to protect intellectual property from abuse and copyright infringement. It also focuses on challenges involved in protecting multimedia content and the research gaps in the area of cloud-based multimedia content protection
A Survey on ChatGPT: AI-Generated Contents, Challenges, and Solutions
With the widespread use of large artificial intelligence (AI) models such as
ChatGPT, AI-generated content (AIGC) has garnered increasing attention and is
leading a paradigm shift in content creation and knowledge representation. AIGC
uses generative large AI algorithms to assist or replace humans in creating
massive, high-quality, and human-like content at a faster pace and lower cost,
based on user-provided prompts. Despite the recent significant progress in
AIGC, security, privacy, ethical, and legal challenges still need to be
addressed. This paper presents an in-depth survey of working principles,
security and privacy threats, state-of-the-art solutions, and future challenges
of the AIGC paradigm. Specifically, we first explore the enabling technologies,
general architecture of AIGC, and discuss its working modes and key
characteristics. Then, we investigate the taxonomy of security and privacy
threats to AIGC and highlight the ethical and societal implications of GPT and
AIGC technologies. Furthermore, we review the state-of-the-art AIGC
watermarking approaches for regulatable AIGC paradigms regarding the AIGC model
and its produced content. Finally, we identify future challenges and open
research directions related to AIGC.Comment: 20 pages, 6 figures, 4 table
AN INVESTIGATION OF DIFFERENT VIDEO WATERMARKING TECHNIQUES
Watermarking is an advanced technology that identifies to solve the problem of illegal manipulation and distribution of digital data. It is the art of hiding the copyright information into host such that the embedded data is imperceptible. The covers in the forms of digital multimedia object, namely image, audio and video. The extensive literature collected related to the performance improvement of video watermarking techniques is critically reviewed and presented in this paper. Also, comprehensive review of the literature on the evolution of various video watermarking techniques to achieve robustness and to maintain the quality of watermarked video sequences
A review and open issues of diverse text watermarking techniques in spatial domain
Nowadays, information hiding is becoming a helpful technique and fetches more attention due to the fast growth of using the internet; it is applied for sending secret information by using different techniques. Watermarking is one of major important technique in information hiding. Watermarking is of hiding secret data into a carrier media to provide the privacy and integrity of information so that no one can recognize and detect it's accepted the sender and receiver. In watermarking, many various carrier formats can be used such as an image, video, audio, and text. The text is most popular used as a carrier files due to its frequency on the internet. There are many techniques variables for the text watermarking; each one has its own robust and susceptible points. In this study, we conducted a review of text watermarking in the spatial domain to explore the term text watermarking by reviewing, collecting, synthesizing and analyze the challenges of different studies which related to this area published from 2013 to 2018. The aims of this paper are to provide an overview of text watermarking and comparison between approved studies as discussed according to the Arabic text characters, payload capacity, Imperceptibility, authentication, and embedding technique to open important research issues in the future work to obtain a robust method
Challenges and Remedies to Privacy and Security in AIGC: Exploring the Potential of Privacy Computing, Blockchain, and Beyond
Artificial Intelligence Generated Content (AIGC) is one of the latest
achievements in AI development. The content generated by related applications,
such as text, images and audio, has sparked a heated discussion. Various
derived AIGC applications are also gradually entering all walks of life,
bringing unimaginable impact to people's daily lives. However, the rapid
development of such generative tools has also raised concerns about privacy and
security issues, and even copyright issues in AIGC. We note that advanced
technologies such as blockchain and privacy computing can be combined with AIGC
tools, but no work has yet been done to investigate their relevance and
prospect in a systematic and detailed way. Therefore it is necessary to
investigate how they can be used to protect the privacy and security of data in
AIGC by fully exploring the aforementioned technologies. In this paper, we
first systematically review the concept, classification and underlying
technologies of AIGC. Then, we discuss the privacy and security challenges
faced by AIGC from multiple perspectives and purposefully list the
countermeasures that currently exist. We hope our survey will help researchers
and industry to build a more secure and robust AIGC system.Comment: 43 pages, 10 figure
