Abstract
A digital watermark information judging method is provided for detecting digital watermark information which is embedded in at least one element of digital data by altering at least one data value of the element. The method first estimates the data value of the element by using data values of at least two neighboring elements of data located near the element, then compares the estimated data value with an actual data value of the element to detect the amount of the alteration, and judges the presence and value of the digital watermark information based on the amount of the alteration.
