Abstract

Abstract:

This paper presents a reliable digital watermarking technique. For the first time， the watermark image is preprocessed by halftone and quad tree techniques， and the position information of the content is extracted as the actual embedded value. The cover image is processed by Discrete Wavelet Transform （DWT）， and then the high frequency sub-band is divided into blocks， sized by . The blocks were processed by an optimal Discrete Cosine Transform （DCT） psychovisual threshold. Embedding process in this paper utilizes certain frequency regions of DCT such that insertion of watermark bits causes the least image distortion. The information was extracted by comparing certain coefficients based on some rules. According to the information， the watermark image can be reconstructed. The experimental results show that our algorithm achieves higher capacity and robustness than the existing schemes. The watermark extraction produces high image quality after cutting， noise， filter and JPEG compression attacks.

Key words: digital watermarking, halftone, quad tree, discrete wavelet transforms, discrete cosine transforms
