A Secure Echo-hiding Audio Watermarking Method based on Improved PN Sequence and Robust Principal Component Analysis

Echo-hiding has been widely studied for audio watermarking. This study proposes a more secure echo-hiding method based on modified pseudo-noise (PN) sequence and robust principal component analysis (RPCA). In the proposed method, the RPCA is used to decompose the original audio signal into low-rank and sparse parts and then a pair of opposite modified PN sequences is employed to embed watermarks. ...
