Abstract
In this paper, singular value decomposition based color image authentication scheme is proposed. Singular values of the host image are modified with that of a secret image. Modifications are optimized to obtain the maximum robustness without losing visual quality. Experiments are done using color images as host and watermark. Simulation results show that the present algorithm is highly resistant to various image processing attacks with significant improvement in perceptibility. The performance is measured objectively in terms of Mean Square Error, Peak Signal to Noise Ratio and Correlation Factor.
