Abstract

Digital text watermarking is a challenging task which attempts to secure all types of digital text content. Specifically implementation of linguistic text watermarking experiences more difficulties because of variation in the appearance of the text information of different natural languages. This paper presents extended work of previously implemented Marathi language text watermarking technique. Here we test for performance analysis of the proposed technique. We further investigate this technique against different possible text watermarking attacks using standard corpus of varying lengths. Our aim is to verify whether the technique predominates the essential properties of typical text watermarking system. The constructive experimental outcomes confirm the effectiveness and the robustness of the proposed technique.
