Region-Based Watermarking of Biometric Images: Case Study in Fingerprint Images

Abstract: In this paper, a novel scheme to watermark biometric images is proposed. It exploits the fact that biometric images, normally, have one region of interest, which represents the relevant part of information processable by most of the biometric-based identification/authentication systems. This proposed scheme consists of embedding the watermark into the region of interest only; thus, preserving the hidden data from the segmentation process that removes the useless background and keeps the region of interest unal… Show more

“…close to minutiae data) or by maintaining the ridge gradient orientations. Recent work by Zebbiche et al [26,27] proposes two robust WM schemes for fingerprint images where WM data is embedded into the ridge area (region of interest RoI) only. The aim is to increase robustness of WM due to the concentration onto the RoI.…”
