“…While frequency domain schemes transform the representation of spatial domain into the frequency domain and then modify its frequency coefficients to embed the watermark. There are many transform domain watermarking schemes such as discrete cosine transforms (DCT) [4,9,57,39,37,38,113], singular value decomposition (SVD) [8,14,22,27,28,34,48,52,63,74,77,84,85,90,91,113], discrete Fourier transforms (DFT) [18,64,67,70,94], and discrete wavelet transforms (DWT) [7,28,51,83,90,102,117]. These methods typically provide higher imperceptibility and are much more robust to distortion attacks, but the computational cost is higher than spatial-domain watermarking methods.…”
