Wavelet Based Watermarking Detection Using Multiresolution Image Registration

چکیده
Due to the lack of invariant property of discrete wavelet transform (DWT), the DWT based watermarking schemes are relatively vulnerable to the watermarking attacks such as geometric variations (i.e., rotation and translation etc.). To improve the reliability of the DWT based watermark detection, this paper introduces the new multiresolution based image registration method that is used to recover the geometrically distorted image before detecting the watermark. Since the proposed registration method does not require either the original image or any control point (invariant feature), it can be implemented by the blindbased DWT based watermarking scheme. Simulation results show that the proposed registration method provides the further improvement of the DWT based watermark detection process. keywords: Digital watermarking, Discrete wavelet transform.

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...
متن کاملContourlet-Based Edge Extraction for Image Registration
Image registration is a crucial step in most image processing tasks for which the final result is achieved from a combination of various resources. In general, the majority of registration methods consist of the following four steps: feature extraction, feature matching, transform modeling, and finally image resampling. As the accuracy of a registration process is highly dependent to the fe...
متن کاملDigital Image Multiresolution Watermark Based on Human Visual System
Digital watermarking has been proposed as a way to claim protection. In this paper, we try to use the error-correcting code skill, the multiresolution of wavelet transformation, and the human visual system to improve the traditional watermarking. Error-correcting based watermarking will have the property that corrects errors of the extracted watermark automatically. The HVS (Human Visual System...
متن کاملMultiresolution watermarking for images and video
This paper proposes a unified approach to digital watermarking of images and video based on the twoand threedimensional discrete wavelet transforms. The hierarchical nature of the wavelet representation allows multiresolutional detection of the digital watermark, which is a Gaussian distributed random vector added to all the high-pass bands in the wavelet domain. We show that when subjected to ...
متن کاملA Robust Digital Image Watermarking Scheme Based on DWT
In this paper a wavelet-based logo watermarking scheme is presented. The logo watermark is embedded into all sub-blocks of the LLn sub-band of the transformed host image, using quantization technique. Extracted logos from all sub-blocks are merged to make the extracted watermark from distorted watermarked image. Knowing the quantization step-size, dimensions of logo and the level of wavelet tra...
