A Novel Optimized Graph-Based Transform Watermarking Technique to Address Security Issues in Real-Time Application

Abstract

The multimedia technologies are gaining a lot of popularity these days. Many unauthorized persons are gaining the access of multimedia such as videos, audios, and images. The transmission of multimedia across the Internet by unauthorized person has led to the problem of illegal distribution. The problem arises when copyrighted data is getting accessed without the knowledge of copyright owner. The videos are the most attacked data during COVID-19 pandemic. In this paper, the frame selection video watermarking technique is proposed to tackle the issue. The proposed work enlightens frame selection followed by watermarking embedding and testing of the technique against various attacks. The embedding of the watermark is done on selected frames of the video. The additional security feature Hyperchaotic Encryption is applied on watermark before embedding. Watermark embedding is done using graph-based transform and singular-valued decomposition and the performance of the technique is further optimized using hybrid combination of grey wolf optimization and genetic algorithm. Many researchers face the challenge of quality loss after embedding of watermark. Proposed technique will aim to overcome those challenges. A total of 6 videos (Akiyo, Coastguard, Foreman, News, Bowing, and Pure Storage) are used for carrying out research work. The performance evaluation of the proposed technique has been carried out after processing it against practical video processing attacks Gaussian noise, sharpening, rotation, blurring, and JPEG compression.

The Future Development Direction of Cloud-Associated Edge-Computing Security in the Era of 5G as Edge Intelligence

“…Edge hubs are spread across the network. A single hub's size and power consumption are very limited, and its registration and storing capabilities pale in comparison to the distributed computing community [34]. Even though the current distributed computing community's inconsistency detection framework and adaptation to non-critical failure instruments are quite experienced, they will cost a significant amount of resources, making them incompatible with the edge registering framework.…”

Minimum Latency-Secure Key Transmission for Cloud-Based Internet of Vehicles Using Reinforcement Learning

“…The IoV system could be harmed by these attacks, which could weaken its resistance and reliability or, in the worst case, bring it to a standstill and result in accidents. The GKA scheme proposed by Reference [ 12 ] uses pseudonyms for cluster authentication and key update. It uses aliases to construct digital signatures while simultaneously authenticating cluster vehicles to prevent the leakage of vehicle trajectory privacy.…”

Mechanical vibration monitoring system for electrocardiogram machine based on Hilbert‐Huang transformations

“…Hilbert‐Huang transform (HHT) is an adaptive time–frequency analysis method, which overcomes the defects of traditional spectrum analysis methods. The HHT method is used to analyze the signal, which has good time–frequency aggregation, can obtain very high time–frequency resolution, and is very suitable for analyzing the non‐stationary signals that may be included in the rotor vibration signal [8]. In this paper, taking the spindle of mechanical manufacturing numerical control (NC) machine tool as an example, the mechanical manufacturing vibration monitoring system based on HHT feature extraction is studied.…”
