Block Size Analysis for Discrete Wavelet Watermarking and Embedding a Vector Image as a Watermark
(Zarka Private Univ, 2019) Sever, Hayri; Şenol, Ahmet; Elbaşı, Ersin
As telecommunication and computer technologies proliferate, most data are stored and transferred in digital format. Content owners, therefore, are searching for new technologies to protect copyrighted products in digital form. Image watermarking emerged as a technique for protecting image copyrights. Early studies on image watermarking used the pixel domain whereas modern watermarking methods convert a pixel based image to another domain and embed a watermark in the transform domain. This study aims to use, Block Discrete Wavelet Transform (BDWT) as the transform domain for embedding and extracting watermarks. This study consists of 2 parts. The first part investigates the effect of dividing an image into non overlapping blocks and transforming each image block to a DWT domain, independently. Then, effect of block size on watermark success and, how it is related to block size, are analyzed. The second part investigates embedding a vector image logo as a watermark. Vector images consist of geometric objects such as lines, circles and splines. Unlike pixel-based images, vector images do not lose quality due to scaling. Vector watermarks deteriorate very easily if the watermarked image is processed, such as compression or filtering. Special care must be taken when the embedded watermark is a vector image, such as adjusting the watermark strength or distributing the watermark data into the image. The relative importance of watermark data must be taken into account. To the best of our knowledge this study is the first to use a vector image as a watermark embedded in a host image.

A Concept-Based Sentiment Analysis Approach for Arabic
(Zarka Private Univ, 2020) Sever, Hayri; Nasser, Ahmed
Concept-Based Sentiment Analysis (CBSA) methods are considered to be more advanced and more accurate when it compared to ordinary Sentiment Analysis methods, because it has the ability of detecting the emotions that conveyed by multi-word expressions concepts in language. This paper presented a CBSA system for Arabic language which utilizes both of machine learning approaches and concept-based sentiment lexicon. For extracting concepts from Arabic, a rule-based concept extraction algorithm called semantic parser is proposed. Different types of feature extraction and representation techniques are experimented among the building prosses of the sentiment analysis model for the presented Arabic CBSA system. A comprehensive and comparative experiments using different types of classification methods and classifier fusion models, together with different combinations of our proposed feature sets, are used to evaluate and test the presented CBSA system. The experiment results showed that the best performance for the sentiment analysis model is achieved by combined Support Vector Machine-Logistic Regression (SVM-LR) model where it obtained a F-score value of 93.23% using the Concept-Based-Features + Lexicon-Based-Features + Word2vec-Features (CBF + LEX+ W2V) features combinations.
