Abstract
A digital watermark detection method exploits autocorrelation properties of the watermarked signal that enable synchronization of the digital watermark despite temporal or geometric distortion of the host signal. Other watermark methods employ keys, including a key dependent on the content in which the watermark is embedded and another key that is not dependent on the content.
