The method reported here realizes an inaudible echo-hiding based speech watermarking by using sparse subspace clustering (SSC). Speech signal is first analyzed with SSC to obtain its sparse and low-rank components. Watermarks are embedded as the echoes of the sparse component for robust extraction. Self-compensated echoes consisting of two independent echo kernels are designed to have similar delay offsets but opposite amplitudes. A one-bit watermark is embedded by separately performing the echo kernels on the sparse and low-rank components. As a result, the sound distortion caused by one echo signal can be quickly compensated by the other echo signal, which enables better inaudibility. Since the embedded echoes have the same sparsity as the sparse component, watermarks can be extracted with a basic cepstrum analysis even if the echo kernels are not directly performed on the original speech. The evaluation results verify the feasibility and effectiveness of this method.
