A detecting method and device for the embedding of bit flow robust digital image watermark are disclosed that belongs to the digital image watermark technique, the data is embedded in the digit image and can be extracted accurately, even if the picture is processed by image operation, for example, magnification, contraction, rotating, inverting, mirroring, printing-scanning and so on. It includes two parts of embedded digit watermark and detecting digit watermark. A method and device for embedded digit watermark include: the data is encoded and modulated, and the encoded signal form an axial symmetry cycle watermark are embed into the digit image self-adaptively. The method and device for detecting the watermark include: calculating the auto-correlation function of forecasting watermark, judging the affine transformation parameter which the image undergo by the coordinate of auto-correlation function local peak value, and recovering the image according to the parameter. Finally, forecasting the watermark from the recovered image, and the data is extracted after demodulation and decoding.
