“…This simple requirement, in reality, makes digital watermarking a multidisciplinary research problem involving theory of communications, signal processing, multimedia coding, information theory, cryptography, mathematics and computer science etc. [5][6][7][8] Many researchers view digital watermarking as a digital communication problem and accordingly use modulation and multiplexing principles to design efficient watermarking algorithms. Similarly, many watermarking techniques have shown improved performance by exploiting the knowledge of signal processing.…”

“…The effect of host signal interference which affects significantly the detection performance of SS watermarking can be solved to a great extent, if image signal is decomposed in proper direction. Figure 2 shows the correlation between the code patterns and the image decomposition corresponding to Daubechies filters (db4), biorthogonal (6,8) and biorthogonal (4, 4) wavelet filters. Similar experimentations are also done for other wavelet filters and biorthogonal wavelets.…”

“…The difference lies in the usage of DWT for signal decomposition. We use two biorthogonal wavelet filters (6,8) and (4,4) for the experimentation, although other biorthogonal wavelets can also be used.…”

This paper investigates the scope of wavelets for performance improvement in spread spectrum image watermarking. Performance of a digital image watermarking algorithm, in general, is determined by the visual invisibility of the hidden data (imperceptibility), reliability in the detection of the hidden information after various common and deliberate signal processing operations (robustness) applied on the watermarked signals and the amount of data to be hidden (payload) without affecting the imperceptibility and robustness properties. In this paper, we propose a few spread spectrum (SS) image watermarking schemes using discrete wavelet transform (DWT), biorthogonal DWT and M -band wavelets coupled with various modulation, multiplexing and signaling techniques. The performance of the watermarking methods are also reported along with the relative merits and demerits.

Data hiding is a technique by which secret data can be delivered securely by embedding it into a cover multimedia document. In this paper, a high capacity data hiding scheme based on block classification is proposed for binary images. In the proposed scheme, the block classification process determines complex regions in the image used for embedding secret data. For each block in the complex region of the image, some secret bits are embedded by lightly modifying few pixels to minimize an embedding distortion. On the receiver side, the secret bits can be then extracted without requiring the original image. Experimental results demonstrated that the proposed scheme obtained a high embedding capacity while maintaining a low distortion. In addition, when compared with previous schemes for binary images, the proposed scheme improved the embedding capacity significantly with the same level of embedding distortion.

-Biometrics images provide the identity of the user based on the physiological or behavioral characteristics of the person. Nowadays, for various purposes, Biometric Images are transmitted over the network. By recent digital technologies, it is possible to attack biometric image. So, to authenticate the biometric images and repaired the tampered images becomes a serious concern. To solve this problem, two enhanced blind authentication techniques are proposed. The first authentication method based on the secret sharing scheme with a data repair capability via the use of the PNG image. In this method, the digital biometric image is combining with the alpha channel to form a PNG image. An authentication signal is transformed into several secret shares by using secret sharing scheme and then embedded into an alpha channel plane of biometric image, which is used for repairing purpose. The second authentication method based on watermarking and bin mapping scheme. In this method, authentication signals are generated by dividing the grayscale range into bins, which provides the double functions of tampering detection and data repairing. Hence, by using these techniques it is possible to authenticate biometric images and also possible to repair if there is any attack in biometric images.
