Information hiding is an area of great interest due to its applications in copyright protection of images, data, passport control, CDs, DVDs, videos and so on. This book presents a sample of recent research results from key researchers. The contributions include:

Copyright protection systemVideo watermarkingRestoring objects for digital inpaintingData embedding schemeRobust image watermarkingPerceptual shaping in digital watermarkingImage authentication method under JPEGFingerprinting for copyright protectionData hiding for halftone imagesInformation hiding for digital watermarking

This book is directed to the application engineers, researchers, graduate students, professors and to those who are interested to investigate the information hiding techniques and use them in various applications such as copyright protection of images, data, passport control, CDs, DVDs, videos and so on.
