Re: [WM]: Re: question about one-bit and multiple-bit watermark and ask for papers



Dear Musstanser Tinauli,
A public watermarking system is a system that detects the watermark without reference to the original (blind) and the private
watermark system that may require the original to detect watermark (non blind).
Come back to the original paper by JFridich (cited in C-Y Lin's paper)

J. Fridrich "Comparing Robustness of Watermarking Techniques," SPIE Security and Watermarking of Multimedia Content, San Jose, CA,
Jan 1999

One-bit watermark/Multi-bit watermark mean the payload of bits. Then, have no link between One-bit watermark/Multi-bit watermarks
and semi-private watermarking/public watermarking (blind).

Best regards,
tdhien

>> Dear Anna,
>> Go back to the original watermarking model, there are two main steps:
