Binary Image Watermarking through Blurring and Biased Binarization
نویسندگان
چکیده
Digital watermarking has been proposed for the protection of digital medias. This paper presents two watermarking algorithms for binary images. Both algorithms involve a blurring preprocessing and a biased binarization. After the blurring, the first algorithm embeds a watermark by modifying the DC components of the Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT), followed by a biased binarization, and the second one embeds a watermark by directly biasing the binarization threshold of the blurred image, controlled by a loop. Experimental results show the imperceptibility and robustness aspects of both algorithms.

متن کاملBinary image watermarking through biased binarization
This paper presents a watermarking algorithm for binary images. The original binary image is blurred to a gray-level image and we embed the watermark by biasing the threshold in binarization. A loop is used to control the quality of watermarked images and robustness, and a key is generated for extraction. We employ error correction codes to reduce extraction error. This algorithm can be applied...

Local binary pattern (LBP) operators, which measure the local contrast within a pixel's neighborhood, successfully applied to texture analysis, visual inspection, and image retrieval. In this paper, we recommend a semi blind and informed watermarking approach. The watermark has been built from the original image using Weber Law. The approach aims is to present a high robustness and imperceptibi...
متن کاملA Zero-watermarking Scheme based on LPM and Holographic
This paper proposes a novel watermarking scheme against geometric attacks, combined with the holographic technology and the log-polar transform. In this paper, we first use discrete cosine transform into the original image, then do edge detection for the low frequency part, then do log-polar transform to edge image and make it binarization. We use a key to choose a certain size of the binary im...
