چکیده

For most HVS(Human Visual System) perceptual models, the JND(Just Noticeable Difference) values in highly-textured image regions have little difference with those in edge areas. This is not consistent with the characteristics of human vision. In this paper, an improved method is introduced to give a better content-based perceptual mask than traditional ones using the arrangement of scale-invariant feature points. It could decrease the JND values in edge areas of those traditional masks so that they have an obvious difference with values in highly textured areas. Experimental results show the advantages of this improved approach visually, and the enhancement of the invisibility of watermarks.

Geometrically Invariant Watermarking Scheme Based on Local Feature Points

Based on local invariant feature points and cross ratio principle, this paper presents a feature-point-based image watermarking scheme. It is robust to geometric attacks and some signal processes. It extracts local invariant feature points from the image using the improved scale invariant feature transform algorithm. Utilizing these points as vertexes it constructs some quadrilaterals to be as ...

Feature-Based Image Watermarking Method Using Scale-Invariant Keypoints

This paper addresses feature-based image watermarking methods for digital contents. Most previous watermarking algorithms suffer from geometric distortion attacks that desynchronize the location of the inserted watermark. In order to synchronize the watermark location, watermark synchronization should be performed. One solution for watermark synchronization is to use image features. This paper ...

Content-Based Synchronization Using the Local Invariant Feature for Robust Watermarking

This paper addresses the problem of content-based synchronization for robust watermarking. Synchronization is a process of extracting the location to embed and detect the signature so that it is crucial for the robustness of the watermarking system. In this paper, we will review representative contentbased approaches and propose a new synchronization method based on the scale invariant feature ...

DPML-Risk: An Efficient Algorithm for Image Registration

Targets and objects registration and tracking in a sequence of images play an important role in various areas. One of the methods in image registration is feature-based algorithm which is accomplished in two steps. The first step includes finding features of sensed and reference images. In this step, a scale space is used to reduce the sensitivity of detected features to the scale changes. Afterw...
