Abstract

Many industrial production processes, transactions, and multimedia communications are generated in daily life. Digital watermarking technology plays a vital role in the field of multimedia information security. Information security has got many remarkable achievements. However, a contradiction between the robustness of the watermark and the quality of the cover multimedia has not been paid attention by scholars. This paper proposes an algorithm to improve the cover image quality of QIM-based watermarking algorithm based on genetic algorithm. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm is effective.
