In 2010, Wang et al. proposed a lossless data hiding scheme which hides secret data in vector quantization (VQ) indices, but the encoding strategies adopted by their scheme expand the final codestream. This paper designs four embedding and encoding strategies to improve Wang et aL's scheme. The experiment result of the proposed scheme compared with that of the Wang et aL's scheme reduces the bit rates of the final codestream by 4.6% and raises the payload by 1.09% on average.展开更多

In recent years, watermarking methods which can resist this kind of distortions have attracted a lot of interests. But still many proposed methods can only deal with one certain kind of valumetric distortion such as amplitude scaling attack, and fail in other kinds of valumetric distortions like constant change attack, gamma correction or contrast stretching. In this paper, we propose a simple but effective method to tackle all the three kinds of valumetric distortions. This algorithm constructs an invariant domain first by spread transform which satisfies certain constraints. Then an amplitude scale invariant watermarking scheme is applied on the constructed domain. The validity of the approach has been confirmed by applying the watermarking scheme to Gaussian host data and real images. Experimental results confirm its intrinsic invariance against amplitude scaling, constant change attack and robustness improvement against nonlinear valumetric distortions.展开更多

In light of lacking related evaluation systems of urban identity planning, this paper makes an in-depth study on the composition system of urban identity, based on which it develops an urban identity evaluation system and then proposes technical methods for index screening and evaluation. Finally, it verifi es the application of an urban identity evaluation index system by using quantitative simulation in the two Chinese cities of Tianjin and Nanjing.展开更多
