| description | The recent growth in computer networks, and more specifically, the World Wide
Web, has allowed multimedia data such as images to be easily distributed over the
Internet. However, many publishers may be reluctant to show their work on the
Internet due to a lack of security. Images can be easily duplicated and distributed
without the owner’s consent. Robust digital image watermark have been proposed as
a way to tackle this issue.
An effective robust digital watermark should be perceptually invisible to prevent
obstruction of the original image. It should be statistically invisible to prevent
detection, and it should also be robust to many image manipulations, such as filtering,
resize, addition of random noise and JPEG compression.
The report is to introduce a number of different techniques being used for robust
digital image watermarking such as LSB (Least Significant Bit) Modification,
Comparison-Based Correlation using block processing in spatial domain and DCT
(Discrete-Cosine-Transform) based method in frequency domain. The algorithm of
different image watermarking techniques is included. And matlab is tool for
designing and implementing robust digital image watermarking. All source codes,
experiment results and robustness evaluation are presented.
The aim of the project is to use different techniques for implementing robust digital
image watermarking and evaluating the robustness. In addition, the limitation and
possible improvement for different techniques are recommended for future
improvement. |
