Speech Based Watermarking for Digital Images
This paper presents a novel scheme of
watermarking of digital images for copyright protection and
authentication. In this paper we proposed a method of
embedding owner’s speech signal. Speech being a biometric data,
the watermark signal in this method is expected to be more
meaningful and has closer correlation with copyright holder.
The main issue of concern here is the capacity because the speech
data has large number of samples. Linear predictive coding is
used to encode the audio data. Here, speech samples are
imperceptibly inserted using spread spectrum technique into the
mid frequency band of wavelet transform of image which makes
it robust to lossy compression. Applications for such a speechhiding
scheme include copy protection, authentication and covert
communication.
