IWDW 2016 - 2016 International Workshop on Digital Watermarking

15th IWDW, International Workshop on Digital-forensics and Watermarking (IWDW 2016) is a premier forum for researchers and practitioners working on novel research, development and applications of digital watermarking and forensics techniques for multimedia security. This year, IWDW 2016 is hosted by the State Key Laboratory of Information Security (SKLOIS), Institute of Information Engineering, Chinese Academy of Sciences in Beijing on September 17-19, 2016. We invite submissions of high-quality original research papers. Each submitted paper will be reviewed by at least two reviewers. Two prizes are to be awarded for the best paper and the best student paper, respectively. The proceedings of IWDW 2016 will be published on the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) by Springer. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to:
Mathematical modeling of embedding and detection
Information theoretic, stochastic aspects of data hiding
Security issues, including attacks and counter-attacks
Combination of data hiding and cryptography
Optimum watermark detection and reliable recovery
Estimation of watermark capacity
Channel coding techniques for watermarking
Large-scale experimental tests and benchmarking
New statistical and perceptual models of multimedia content
Reversible data hiding
Data hiding in special media
Data hiding and authentication
Steganography and steganalysis
Digital multimedia forensics & anti-forensics
Copyright protection, DRM, forensic watermarking
Visual cryptography & secret image sharing
Security based on human vision system
