Multimedia is a mode of communication that blends various types of content, including image, audio, text, animations, and video, and the digital watermark is one of these kinds of marker to protect this multimedia. This Mark is intercepted by many of threats that are intended to be removed, destroy, or detected. To determine the success or failure of this process, there are certain criteria are used to make this decision. In this research, some features of the logo image were taken advantage of to achieve the best values for those criteria that determine the quality and success of the watermarking process. The method used is to insert some of the watermark and leave others, and rely on similar values ​​for adjacent pixels while keeping a secret key to arrange the pixels after deleting part of the mark image, and using this key between sending and receiving . Paper foxed on the adjacent pixels have same zero value property contribute to reduce number of pixels of mark image that will be injected after splitting the logo to blocks. By separate the mark into blocks and the segments whose adjacent bit values are different will be injected into the cover image it facilitates the injection process. Reducing the number of bits injected means reducing the time needed for injection bits into the cover image and reducing the number of bits that are vulnerable to attack, Consequently the values of these criteria) quality-security- Capacity and Robustness) improved according to the results obtained.

publisher 2022 8th International Engineering Conference on Sustainable Technology and Development

With an advent of Internet of Things (IoT) applications, the potential and advantages of IoT technology in health and environmental services are becoming more apparent, allowing service quality to be improved via the use of devices and sensors. For health applications, an optimization technique is used to optimize IoT-based network connectivity using wireless sensor networks (WSNs) and smart connected sensors. Continuous health monitoring is necessary to monitor and send the patients’ data continuously to the hospital’s information system which it is located at another location using an existing hospital’s wireless local area network. This study evaluates the influence of WLAN when it was added to WSN which it represented by IEEE802.25.4 ZigBee sensors and how the coexistence occurs because Wifi and ZigBee operated on the same channel. The study was performed using Riverbed Modeler Academic edition (v17.5) in number of modeled scenarios. The collected results showed that the coexistence of Wi-Fi degrade the ZigBee network performance in terms of throughput, delay, and data dropped in some applications such as: (File transfer, Web browsing and Database Access). The increasing number of PCs in Wifi-ZigBee network with a suitable choice of routing topology could improve the performance of the proposed network.

Modern systems have been focusing onimproving the quality of life for people. Hence,new technologies and systems are currentlyutilized extensively in different sectors of oursocieties, such as education and medicine. One ofthe medical applications is using computer visiontechnology to help blind people in their dailyendeavors and reduce their frequent dependenceon their close people and also create a stateof independence for visually impaired people inconducting daily financial operations. Motivatedby this fact, the work concentrates on assistingthe visually impaired to distinguish among Iraqibanknotes. In essence, we employ computervision in conjunction with Deep Learningalgorithms to build a multiclass classificationmodel for classifying the banknotes. This systemwill produce specific vocal commands that areequivalent to the categorized banknote image,and then inform the visually impaired people ofthe denomination of each banknote. To classifythe Iraqi banknotes, it is important to knowthat they have two sides: the Arabic side andthe English side, which is considered one of theimportant issues for human-computer interaction(HCI) in constructing the classification model. Inthis paper, we use a database, which comprises3,961 image samples of the seven Iraqi papercurrency categories. Furthermore, a nineteenlayers Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) istrained using this database in order to distinguishamong the denominations of the banknotes.Finally, the developed system has exhibited anaccuracy of 98.6 %, which proves the feasibilityof the proposed modelKeywords: big data, convolutional neuralnetwork, multi-class classification, papercurrency classification, Iraqi banknotes, image-to-vocal, deep learning

With many applications using digital multimedia technologies, the need to protect digital multimedia data from hackers is emphasized. Copyright holders are concerned about protecting any kind of unlawful duplication of their information. With all these kinds of problems, technology development is very important. Digital watermarks are an important requirement to protect multimedia data. There are important criteria to measure the success of a watermarking process, it is confidentiality, capacity and reliability. In this paper, the logo mark was relied upon to achieve these criteria to a high degree by taking advantage of the symmetry characteristic of the logo image, Which is often used this type of logo images. Symmetry reduces the size of the embedded data, reduces the location of the embedded within the image, and increases confidentiality by encrypting less data in various ways.

Geometric Form Algorithm for Data Hiding

Feb 1, 2021

Hiding digital data is one of the arts of hiding information in the internet. This technique has an important role in the field of information security. Transmission of information over communication networks exposes it to theft from attackers and hackers. One solution of avoiding this problem is to hide the information in image so that the targeted message will not be known to repel the attention of thieves. In the proposed algorithm, the hiding of data is based on rearranging the target data and distributing it in a frame called Geometric Frame (GF) that have dimensions with the same dimensions of the cover image. The proposed algorithm is able to achieve the basic metrics used in steganography. In addition, the secret key improves the security objectives. The image quality for stage image will be improved due to ability to choosing the suitable frame for message bits. The proposed Geometric Form algorithm shows a significant result compared with the other related works.

Abstract: Image compression is an important topic in commercial, industrial, and academic applications. Whether it be in commercial photography, industrial imaging, or video, digital pixel information can comprise considerably large amounts of data. Management of such data can involve significant overhead in computational complexity, storage, and time processing. This paper presents the implementation of a Modified JPEG CODEC algorithm for color images based on inter pixel redundancy. The modification uses the similarity of the adjacent pixels in blocks to omit complex calculation which AC components require in 2D-DCT unit. It applies quantize operation to one element instead of 64 coefficients and eliminates the zigzag unit. Finally , the entropy phase will process a smaller amount of data. In the decoder side the Laplacian parameter is estimated adding to a reduction in the accounts of blocks that have same neighbors pixels. The extensive experimental results demonstrate that the proposed approach can achieve best image quality. The Simulation results show that the Modified JPEG(MJPEG) algorithm can process a 512 X 512 color image in a reduced processing time ( more than 40%) compared to the original algorithm and by more resilience with higher compression ratio. Keywords: JPEG; color image; encoder; decoder.

The advance of mobile electronics technology has produced handheld appliancesallowing both wireless voice and data communications. One of the most importantoperations in the realm of digital signal and image processing is the 2-D Discrete CosineTransform. This paper presents a multiplierless two dimensional Discrete CosineTransform/Inverse Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT/IDCT) based on the transposemethod. In this method the 2-D DCT is obtained by taking two 1-D DCTs in series. Theinput data is first divided into NxN blocks and the row-wise 1-D DCT of each block istaken, the intermediate transposition is then determined and a column-wise 1-D DCT isascertained which gives the 2-D DCT of the data. The hardware implementation isparallel, pipelined and decomposed the coefficients matrix into four power of twoterm(i.e:16 ) to perform shift and add operations instead of multipliers(i.e 16); it costsonly 1,443 slice , and runs at maximum frequency of 82.8 MHz with a very high processthroughput of 991.2 Megabits/sec when synthesized onto Spartan3-E XC3S500 FPGAdevice.
