Key-dependent pyramidal wavelet domains for secure watermark embedding

چکیده
Wavelet filters can be parametrized to create an entire family of different wavelet filters. We discuss wavelet filter parametrization as a means to add security to wavelet based watermarking schemes. We analyze the influence of the number of filter parameters and use non-stationary multi-resolution decomposition where different wavelet filters are used at different levels of the decomposition. Using JPEG and JPEG2000 compression we assess the normalized correlation and Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR) behavior of the watermarks. The security against unauthorized detection is also investigated. We conclude that the proposed systems show good robustness against compression and depending on the resolution we choose for the parameters we get between 2 and 2 possible keys.

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...

In this paper a robust frame based audio watermarking scheme using Discrete Wavelet Transformation (DWT) is presented. In the proposed approach traditional watermarking is combined with cryptography to make the scheme more secure. Instead of embedding the watermark bits in consecutive frames, a pseudo-random sequence driven by a secret key is generated using cellular automata that provide the p...
