چکیده

Digital watermarks are imperceptible signals additively embedded in image, video or audio data. Ongoing research has largely concentrated on embedding watermarks in scalar data. Here we introduce a non-linear watermarking scheme for multi-variate data that deliberately perturbs an angle formed between associated variables. Our application embeds a spread-spectrum based watermark in the hue component of transformed RGB colour image data. This watermark, being additive in the angular domain, is multiplicative in the data domain. This contrasts with other spread-spectrum based watermarking schemes.

Robust multiplicative video watermarking using statistical modeling

The present paper is intended to present a robust multiplicative video watermarking scheme. In this regard, the video signal is segmented into 3-D blocks like cubes, and then, the 3-D wavelet transform is applied to each block. The low frequency components of the wavelet coefficients are then used for data embedding to make the process robust against both malicious and unintentional attacks. Th...

Blind transform-based multiplicative watermarking through a hierarchical prior

In this work we propose the application of a hierarchical prior for the multiplicative image watermarking problem. More specific, we propose new watermark detectors by modeling transform coefficients with the proposed prior. We also investigate the detector’s performance compared with known state of the art methods. Additionally, we demonstrate the robustness of the proposed detectors against w...

A perceptually driven hybrid additive-multiplicative watermarking technique in the wavelet domain

This paper presents a hybrid watermarking technique which mixes additive and multiplicative watermark embedding with emphasis on its robustness versus the imperceptibility of the watermark. The embedding is performed in six wavelet sub-bands using independently three embedding equations and two parameters to modulate the embedding strength for multiplicative and additive embedding. The watermar...

Robust Colour Image Watermarking Scheme Based on Feature Points and Image Normalization in Dct Domain

Geometric attacks can desynchronize the location of the watermark and hence cause incorrect watermark detection. This paper presents a robust colour image watermarking scheme based on visually significant feature points and image normalization technique. The feature points are used as synchronization marks between watermark embedding and detection. The watermark is embedded into the non overlap...
