Abstract
Quick view
Full text preview
In this paper, an innovative blind watermarking algorithm has been proposed for imagery applications. This algorithm has used the coefficients of the discrete wavelet transform of the host image in the form of super trees to embed the predefined binary watermark in the host image. In this scheme, a pseudo random sequence is generated to determine the exact wavelet super trees used for embedding procedure. In the next step, after choosing the maximum and second maximum amplitude coefficients of each super tree, the distance vector between two coefficients is computed. For embedding bit zero of the specified watermark, the values of the distance vector elements are decreased, while for embedding bit 1, those values will be increased based on the proposed formulas. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm has significant robustness against image processing attacks, especially JPEG compression and also the PSNR value for the watermarked images generated by the proposed method is more than 42 dB.
