Annotation: An algorithm of digital fingerprinting is proposed. The specific feature of this algorithm is that it takes into account different significance of different parts of the image according to their influence on the resulting image quality if any distortions have been occurred. The weighted container model is used for this purpose. This algorithm uses the ECC in weighted Hamming metric as a base approach.
