STIRMARK

This page mirrors information from the Official Stirmark Page, provided by Fabien Petitcolas.

Introduction

Stirmark is a benchmarking tool for digital watermarking technologies. Given a watermarked inpute image, Stirmark generates a number of modified images which can then be used to verify if the embedded watermark can still be detected. Stirmark also proposes a procedure to combine the different detection results and compute an overall score ranging between 0 and 1.

Stirmark has been developed by Fabien Petitcolas during his Pd.D. at Cambridge University, UK. Since its first publication in 1997, Stirmark has gained large interest from the watermarking community and it is currently the most widely used benchmarking suite for digital watermarking technologies.

Image alterations implemented in Stirmark Version 3.1 include:

  • Cropping
  • Flip
  • Rotation
  • Rotation-Scale 
  • FMLR, sharpening, Gaussian filtering
  • Random bending
  • Linear transformations 
  • Aspect ratio
  • Scale changes 
  • Line removal
  • Color reduction
  • JPEG compression
