Scalable authentication for various representations of JPEG 2000 images

摘要

This paper presents an authentication scheme for a JPEG 2000 image codestream, which is obtained by using JPEG 2000 Interactive Protocol (JPIP). JPIP allows a client to request a JPEG 2000 image that has a different representation from the original image. The client-requested image codestream is a portion of the original JPEG 2000 codestream and its structure differs for each client request. To verify the authenticity of the image requested by the client, a scalable verification mechanism is required. Hence, we propose a new scalable authentication scheme using an aggregate signature. The proposed scheme allows the scalable generation of digital signatures for any client-requested image. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.
