A Novel Feature Based Blind Watermarking Scheme
Subscribe/Renew Journal
This paper proposes an algorithm that embeds the watermark information in host image in order to authenticate it. The input image is divided into non overlapping blocks and a matrix pattern is derived from the pixel values of those blocks. A watermark is obtained by scrambling the matrix pattern with Arnold Transform. The constructed watermark is embedded within the host image. The operation of embedding and extraction of watermark is done in high frequency domain of Discrete Wavelet Transform. This watermarking scheme deals with the extraction of the watermark information in the absence of original image. The proposed method is checked for different noise attacks like salt & pepper and Gaussian, median filtering and image adjustment. Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR) is computed to measure image quality. The proposed method exhibits high security and high imperceptibility features.
