Abstract
To better extract the edge feature of the cartoon image, a zero-watermark algorithm based on non-subsampled shearlet transform is purposed. In this method, NSST can extract the edge contour feature of cartoon image well by extracting low-frequency part of the image, and the image features can be better extracted by combining normalization, DCT and non-negative matrix factorization (NMF). For the watermark image, the spread spectrum based on complete complementary codes and chaotic scrambling is used to improve the robustness and security. Finally, the zero-watermark is derived by making the feature information of the cartoon image XOR with the watermark information. The experimental results show that the method is strong robustness against noise, geometric transformation, JPEG compression.
