“…Liu [15] proposed a watermarking scheme for color images that is based on the design of a modified color visual model. The model is to estimate the noise detection threshold of each wavelet coefficient in luminance and chrominance components of color images in order to satisfy transparency and robustness required by the color image watermarking technique.…”

Color image watermarking with high imperceptibility and robustness capabilities is still an emerging topic in the field of multimedia copyright protection. A novel approach for robust and semiblind watermarking of still color images in the wavelet domain is proposed. The proposed technique utilizes the human visual system characteristics, and an innovative watermark weight-calibrating procedure to create various watermarks at different classes of the color image under consideration. It decomposes the input color image into specific classes where each class is applied to an appropriate watermarking procedure that takes into account its grayness and/or chromaticity behaviors on a pixel-wise and color permissibility basis. The experimental results have shown that the proposed technique exhibits very high imperceptibility (80.1 to 89.2 dB) and is sufficiently robust to guard against JPEG compression, additive noise, filtering, moderate cropping, scaling, and other common image manipulations. © 2011 SPIE and IS&T.

The thresholds are derived into a locally dynamic fashion based on the wavelet decomposition, through which the perceptually significant coefficients are selected for embedding watermark.…”

This paper proposes a new dynamic and robust blind watermarking scheme for color pathological image based on discrete wavelet transform (DWT). The binary watermark image is preprocessed before embedding; firstly it is scrambled by Arnold cat map and then encrypted by pseudorandom sequence generated by robust chaotic map. The host image is divided into n × n blocks, and the encrypted watermark is embedded into the higher frequency domain of blue component. The mean and variance of the subbands are calculated, to dynamically modify the wavelet coefficient of a block according to the embedded 0 or 1, so as to generate the detection threshold. We research the relationship between embedding intensity and threshold and give the effective range of the threshold to extract the watermark. Experimental results show that the scheme can resist against common distortions, especially getting advantage over JPEG compression, additive noise, brightening, rotation, and cropping.
