METHOD AND DEVICE FOR ASSESSING THE PRESENCE OF A WATERMARK IN A VIDEO

摘要

The invention relates to a method for assessing the presence of a watermark in a video wherein the video comprises at least a sequence of frames. The method comprises for at least one frame among one of the sequences of frames the steps of computing a set of axial cross-correlation values, wherein each axial cross-correlation value corresponds to a correlation between the frame and a reference watermark shifted along a spatial horizontal axis; obtaining a detection score by computing a weighted sum of values output by a function applied to said axial cross-correlation values; assessing the presence of a watermark according to the detection score. Such method is particularly well adapted to the detection of disparity coherent watermark but is compliant with any watermarking technique. A device implementing the method is further disclosed.

1. A method for assessing the presence of a watermark in a video, wherein said video comprises at least a sequence of frames, the method comprises for at least one frame among one of the sequences of frames:
computing a set of axial cross-correlation values, wherein each axial cross-correlation value corresponds to a correlation between said frame and a reference watermark shifted along a spatial horizontal axis; obtaining a detection score by computing a weighted sum of values output by a function applied to said axial cross-correlation values; assessing the presence of a watermark according to the detection score.
