Digital Watermarking Based on Magic Square and Ridgelet Transform Techniques

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing ((AISC,volume 243))

Abstract

This paper proposes two algorithms for embedding and extraction of the watermark into the cover image based on magic square and ridgelet transform techniques. Spread-spectrum communication systems use the spread sequences that have good correlation properties. Magic square technique is used as a spread-spectrum technique to spread the watermark. Ridgelet transform is the next-generation wavelets as it is effective through line singularities characteristic. Ridgelet transform generates sparse image representation where the most significant coefficient represents the most energetic direction of an image with straight edges. The experiments indicated that these algorithms enabled the cover images to have the good invisibility and made them robust to the general image compression attacks such as JPEG, GIF.
