Watermarking Grayscale Images using Text for Copyright Protection
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper proposes a novel method for watermarking gray scale images in spatial domain by modifying the least significant bits of the pixels in the image. The embedding process creates a watermarked image with hidden information that in future can proclaim its ownership details. Data to be embedded is integrated in the image selectively on a subset of pixels using a rule that replaces the LSB’s of the image with the watermark signal bits. The method is successful in generating marked copies of the original image with high PSNR value and good visual qualities suitable for distribution via any media or publishing in Internet.

Color Image Watermarking Techniques and Its Algorithm Improvement: Review
Image watermarking technique embeds copyright information (watermark) into host image so as to perform its protection and authentication. Schemes of embedding digital watermark into grayscale images have been researched and developed greatly. However color image is more common in our everyday life and it contains more information than grayscale image and provides information to against the atta...
متن کاملA New SVD based Hybrid Color Image Watermarking for Copyright Protection using Contourlet Transform
The authors propose a new hybrid watermarking scheme for copyright protection of color images using contourlet transform and singular value decomposition. The host color image and color watermark images are decomposed into directional subbands using contourlet transform and then applied Singular value decomposition to mid frequency subband coefficients. The singular values of mid frequency subb...

Digital watermarking is one of the proposed solutions for copyright protection of multimedia data. This technique is better than Digital Signatures and other methods because it does not increase overhead. Digital Watermarking describes methods and technologies that hide information, for example a number or text, in digital media, such as images, video or audio. The embedding takes place by mani...

In rapid growth of network distributions of images and video, there is an imperative need for copyright protection, besides pirating. Different digital image and video watermarking schemes have been proposed to deal with this matter of ownership identification. The video watermarking schemes using discrete wavelet are transformed to keep the copyright of digital videos. The input video sequence...
