چکیده

In this paper we present a new efficient watermarking scheme for images. The basic idea of our method is to alter the colors of the given image in a suitable but imperceptible way. This is accomplished by moving the coordinates of each color in the color opponency space. The scheme is shown to be robust against a large class of image manipulations. The robustness of the scheme is also theoretically analyzed and it is shown to depend on the number of colors in the image being marked.

Intelligent scalable image watermarking robust against progressive DWT-based compression using genetic algorithms

Image watermarking refers to the process of embedding an authentication message, called watermark, into the host image to uniquely identify the ownership. In this paper a novel, intelligent, scalable, robust wavelet-based watermarking approach is proposed. The proposed approach employs a genetic algorithm to find nearly optimal positions to insert watermark. The embedding positions coded as chr...

Blind Watermarking Scheme Based on Rdwt-dct for Color Images

In Digital era sharing of images have become very common and raises the risk of using it for unethical and fraudulent purposes with the help of manipulation tools. Digital image watermarking is one way to protect the digital information (text, images, audio, and video) from fraudulent manipulations. Digital Image Watermarking is a process of implanting data in the original image for authenticat...

Color Image Embedding using Multidimensional Lattice Structures

This paper describes a robust data embedding scheme which uses noise resilient channel codes based on a multidimensional lattice structure. Compared to prior work in digital watermarking, the proposed scheme can handle a significantly larger quantity of signature data such as gray-scale or color images. A trade-off between the quantity of hidden data and the quality of the watermarked image is ...

Segmentation and Content-based Watermarking for Image Indexing

In this paper, a novel approach to image indexing using content-based watermarking is presented. The proposed system uses color image segmentation and watermarking in order to facilitate content-based indexing, retrieval and manipulation of digital images and image regions. A novel segmentation algorithm is applied on reduced images and the resulting segmentation mask is embedded in the image u...
