Dynamic binary location based multi-watermark embedding algorithm in DWT

Abstract

In order to achieve a good imperceptibility and robustness, using 4-level DWT algorithm based on dynamic binary host image location and embedding two watermark logos in different DWT levels are proposed for copyright protection and authenticity. In the propounded watermarking algorithm, 5-level DWT is applied to host image to obtain the fifth low frequency sub band (LL5), and examination the dynamic binary location value of selected location for embedding purpose in five different locations in host image using the same algorithm process. Our experimental results demonstrate that our algorithm scheme is imperceptible and robust against several image processing attacks, and watermarked image quality evaluating by calculation of SNR, PSNR, RMSE, and MAE. © 2005 - 2015 JATIT & LLS.
