Reversible watermark using difference expansion of triplets
نویسنده
چکیده
A new reversible watermarking algorithm based on the difference expansion of colored images has been developed. Since the watermark is completely reversible, the original image can be recovered exactly. The algorithm uses spatial and spectral triplets of pixels to hide pairs of bits, which allows the algorithm to hide a large amount of data. A spatial triplet is any three pixel values selected from the same spectral component, while a spectral triplet is any three pixel values selected from different spectral components. The algorithm is recursively applied to the rows and columns of the spectral components of the image and across all spectral components to maximize the hiding capacity. Simulation results show that the hiding capacity of the algorithm is very high and the resulting distortion is low.

Reversible Watermarking by Difference Expansion
Reversible watermark has drawn lots of interest recently. Different from other types of digital watermarks, a reversible watermark has a special feature that the original digital content can be completely restored. In this paper we describe a high capacity and high quality reversible watermarking method based on difference expansion. A noticeable difference between our method and others is that...
متن کاملA new difference expansion transform in triplets for reversible data hiding
Difference expansion (DE) has been widely used for reversible data hiding. In this paper a novel transform which embeds two bits of information in a triplet of coefficients is presented. This transform can be applied in spatial or frequency domain and induces minimum distortion to the initial data or coefficients. The proposed method outperforms all similar DE methods using triplets in terms of...
متن کاملReversible Watermark with Large Capacity Using the Predictive Coding
A reversible watermarking algorithm with large capacity has been developed by applying the difference expansion of a generalized integer transform. In this algorithm, a watermark signal is inserted in the LSB of the difference values among pixels. In this paper, we apply the prediction errors calculated by a predictor in JPEG-LS for embedding a watermark signal, which contributes to increase th...

A reversible data hiding scheme based on the companding technique and the difference expansion (DE) of triplets is proposed in this paper. The companding technique is employed to increase the number of the expandable triplets. The capacity consumed by the location map recording the expanded positions is largely decreased. As a result, the hiding capacity is considerably increased. The experimen...
