We call this algorithm Combined Density-based and Constraint-based Algorithm (CDC). CDC consists of two phases. In the first phase, CDC employs the idea of density-based clustering algorithm to split the original data into a number of fragmented clusters. At the same time, CDC cuts off the noises and outliers. In the second phase, CDC employs the concept of K-means clustering algorithm to select a greater cluster to be the center. Then, the greater cluster merges some smaller clusters which satisfy some constraint rules. Due to the merged clusters around the center cluster, the clustering results show high accuracy. Moreover, CDC reduces the calculations and speeds up the clustering process. In this paper, the accuracy of CDC is evaluated and compared with those of K-means, hierarchical clustering, and the genetic clustering algorithm (GCA) proposed in 2004. Experimental results show that CDC has better performance.展开更多

Each image will be embedded with a unique User IDentification （UID） code that is the fingerprint for tracking the authorized user. The proposed hiding scheme makes use of a random number generator to scramble two copies of a UID, which will then be hidden in the randomly selected medium frequency coefficients of the host image. The linear support vector machine （SVM） will be used to train classifications by calculating the normalized correlation （NC） for the 2class UID codes. The trained classifications will be the models used for identifying unreadable UID codes. Experimental results showed that the success of predicting the unreadable UID codes can be increased by applying SVM. The proposed scheme can be used to provide protections to intellectual property rights of digital images aad to keep track of users to prevent collaborative piracies.展开更多
