Several digital watermarking techniques for audio files have been proposed for hiding data for protecting their copyrights. There is a tradeoff between the quality of watermarked audio and the tolerance of watermarks to signal processing methods, such as compression. To overcome the inevitable tradeoff, we previously developed an authentication method for digital audio. We have improved the method by determining the region to be authenticated in the audio data by making effective use of the fundamental frequency characteristics.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
