This method is based on discrete wavelet transform and spread spectrum technique. A discrete wavelet transformed binary signature image is expanded by an m sequence and added to the large wavelet coefficients of a host image with a scale factor. Good balance between transparency and robustness is achieved by the selection of the scale factor. In addition, the spread spectrum technique is adopted to increase the robustness of this watermarking scheme. The experimental results show that the proposed method is of good performance and robustness for common image operations such as JPEG lossy compression, etc.展开更多

The principles, structures and computational complexity of these algorithms are explored in details respectively. The results of the experiments for comparison are consistent to those simulated by MATLAB. It is found that there are limitations in the implementation of DWT. Some algorithms are workable only for special wavelet transform, lacking in generality. Above all, the speed of wavelet transform, as the governing element to the speed of image processing, is in fact the retarding factor for real-time image processing.展开更多

According to the difference of recognition degree of the human eye to the different region of the image, the image is divided into the interested region and uninterested region of human eye vision in this scheme. Using the relativity of position and the difference to ocular sensitivity of the multiresolution wavelet among each subband, the image is processed with layered watermarking append technique. Experimental results show that the proposed technique successfully survives image processing operations, additive noise and JPEG compression.展开更多
