Watermark detection: benchmarking perspectives

Benchmarking of watermarking algorithms is a complicated task that requires examination of a set of mutually dependent performance factors (algorithm complexity, decoding/detection performance, and perceptual quality). This paper will focus on detection/decoding performance evaluation and try to summarize its basic principles. A methodology for deriving the corresponding performance metrics will also be provided.
