With the acquisition, Disney will acquire Lucasfilm's live-action production business, along with its Industrial Light & Magic effects business, its Skywalker Sound audio operation and its consumer products unit, among other things.
Different from desynchronization attacks, audio processing operations (including requantization, the addition of noises, MP3 lossy compression, and low-pass filtering operations) do not cause synchronization problems, but will reduce the watermark energy.
This paper investigates the assignment of audio mixing operations to a geographically distributed set of servers to provide an immersive voice communication environment for massively multi-player online games.
While The A.P. has rapidly expanded into new areas, investing millions of dollars in technological improvements and video and audio news operations, many of its members still retain the same kind of conservatism that caused their predecessors to balk at selling the news service to radio broadcasters 70 years ago.
watermark should be able to resist most common audio processing operations and attacks.
If modeling with audio signal operations, this is equal to imposing random cropping plus other types of audio signal processing on the input query example.
In experimental way, we show that the watermark is very robust against the DA/AD conversions, and most of common audio processing operations.
To simulate the real-world interference, we apply various audio signal operations on the compressed query examples using audio editing tools Cool Edit (Adobe Systems Inc., CA, USA) and Gold Wave (GoldWave® Inc., Canada).
By virtue of the short-time stationary characteristics of such feature and large overlap, 10-s long query excerpts are shown to have achieved promising retrieval hit rates from the large-scale database containing intact MP3 songs and distorted copies under various audio signal operations including the challenging pitch shifting and time scale modification.
