Mismatching Perceptual Models for Effective Watermarking in the Presence of Compression
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we concentrate on the problem of robust watermarking in the presence of perceptual coding. We first present a watermarking approach called Robust Reference Watermarking (RRW) which can be incorporated into a broad class of watermarking algorithms to improve their performance. Through analysis of this scheme we demonstrate how embedding the watermark using a different perceptual model and domain than for compression can result in improved watermark extraction and detection reliability. Simulation results are also presented to verify our theoretical observations.

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 کاملEnergy Allocation for High-Capacity Watermarking in the Presence of Compression
In this work, we take an information theoretic approach to analyze the watermark communication problem in the presence of perceptual coding. Our effective watermark channel is modeled as a set of parallel independent zero-mean uniformly distributed additive noise channels. Energy allocation principles are identified to maximize the capacity results. Our findings are compared to the traditional ...
متن کاملA Modified Digital Image Watermarking Scheme Based on Nonnegative Matrix Factorization
This paper presents a modified digital image watermarking method based on nonnegative matrix factorization. Firstly, host image is factorized to the product of three nonnegative matrices. Then, the centric matrix is transferred to discrete cosine transform domain. Watermark is embedded in low frequency band of this matrix and next, the reverse of the transform is computed. Finally, watermarked ...
متن کاملImplications for High Capacity Data Hiding in the Presence of Lossy Compression
We derive capacity bounds for watermarking and data hiding in the presence of JND perceptual coding for a class of techniques that do not suffer from host signal interference. By modeling the lossy compression distortions on the hidden data using non-Gaussian statistics, we demonstrate that binary antipodal channel codes achieve capacity. It is shown that the data hiding capacity is at most equ...
