The method of embedding binary data into JPEG2000 bitstreams based on the layer structure

摘要

We propose a method for embedding binary data into JPEG2000 bitstreams. The proposed method uses the layer structure which is proposed for the JPEG2000 standard. In the method, embedded data can be perfectly extracted in the decoder, as well as in the conventional JPEG based method. Moreover, the use of the layer structure allows to execute the embedding process and the rate control independently and to reduced the image degradation compared to those of the conventional methods.
