Quantization Watermarking Integrated in a Wavelet Compression System

چکیده
There are several advantages to combine, at one end the image coding and watermark embedding scheme and at the other end, the image decoding and watermark extraction. In this paper, we present a blind watermarking approach based on quantization index modulation, incorporated in low bit rates wavelet image coder. To encode the binary message, the watermark is placed in the transformed image prior to the uniform quantization used in the compression algorithm. We also show that, by re-using the coding wavelet domain for watermark, the proposed watermarking scheme exhibits a high robustness with respect to compression attacks.

A 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...

In this paper: a new digital watermarking method, integrated with the state-of-the-art image compression standard -JPEG 2000, is developed. The binary digital watermark is embedded in the quantized wavelet coefficients in subbands with intermediate resolution after the stage of quantization and recovered before dequantization during decompression. Different from previously proposed JPEG 2000 ba...
متن کاملAdaptive Wavelet-based Family Tree Quantization for Digital Image Watermarking
This paper presents an adaptive wavelet-based blind digital watermarking scheme for copyright protection. The wavelet coefficients in the same spatial directions at different decomposition levels are grouped into family trees. The watermark is embedded by quantizing the family trees. The trees are adaptively quantized using the characteristics of the human visual system in the wavelet domain so...
متن کاملAdaptive Quantization of Wavelet Packet Coefficients for Image Watermarking
In this paper, a robust digital image watermarking approach using adaptive quantization of wavelet packet coefficients was proposed. The original image is decomposed by discrete wavelet packet transform and the dominant wavelet coefficients are selected for watermark embedding from each sub-band except the lowest frequency one. Then, each watermark bit is adaptively embedded with different stre...
