Recent developments in digital image and Internet technology help the common users to easily produce illegal copies of the images. In order to solve the copyright protection problems of the image, several watermarking schemes have been widely used. Very few watermarking schemes have been proposed for defining the copyrights of color image. To resolve the copyright protection problem of color image, we propose an effective, robust and imperceptible color image watermarking scheme. This scheme embeds the watermark into cover image in (Red, Green, Blue) RGB space. The combinations of Discrete Wavelet Transformation (DWT) and Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) of Blue channel is used to embed the watermark. The singular values of ditTerent subband coefficients of Blue channel are modified using different scaling factors to embed the singular values of the watermark. The copy of the watermark is embedded into four subband coefficients which is very difficult to remove or destroy. The combinations of DWT and SVD increases the security, robustness and imperceptibility of the scheme
A Robust Color Image Watermarking Based on SVD and DWT
A robust color image watermarking based on DWT – SVD (Singular value decomposition) is proposed. Firstly, color image is transformed to YUV from RGB spatial domain. Luminance component Y is performed DWT and then singular value decomposition is applied to obtain singular values. Arnold transform and DWT are performed for the gray watermarks. Watermark is embedded into singular values, which are all from frequency bands of the last two layers. Watermark can be extracted from all attack images in the stirmark benchmark. The robustness can be reflected by experimental results in this algorithm.
A new robust watermarking scheme based on RDWT-SVD
2011
In this paper, a new method for non-blind image watermarking that is robust against affine transformation and ordinary image manipulation is presented. The suggested method presents a watermarking scheme based on redundant discrete wavelet transform and Singular Value Decomposition. After applying RDWT to both cover and watermark images, we apply SVD to the LL subbands of them. We then modify singular values of the cover image using singular values of the visual watermark. The advantage of the proposed technique is its robustness against most common attacks. Analysis and experimental results show higher performance of the proposed method in comparison with the DWT-SVD method.
Robust Digital Watermarking using DWT-DCT-SVD Algorithms for Color Image
2015
Digital image watermarking is a method of embedding piece of information into digital content (i.e. images, audio, video and text) and also provides authenticity to digital content. This paper describes the robust digital image watermarking for color image based on algorithms discrete wavelet transform (DWT), discrete cosine transform (DCT) and singular value decomposition (SVD). Performance analysis of the proposed algorithm is carried out by evaluating the performance metrics like MSE, PSNR and NCC values to check effectiveness and imperceptibility of the watermarked image with different attacks like resizing, rotation, salt and pepper noise etc. The main aim of our paper is to provide robustness, security and authenticity to the image.
Digital Watermarking is a process of embedding information in the multimedia content (host or cover image) for image authentication. An ideal watermarking system would embed an amount of information that could not be removed or altered without making the cover object entirely unusable. Over the past few years digital watermarking has become popular due to its significance in content authentication and legal ownership for digital multimedia data. A digital watermark is a sequence of information containing the owner's copyright. It is inserted invisibly in another image so that it can be extracted at later times for the evidence of rightful ownership. Available digital watermarking techniques can be categorized into one of the two domains, viz., spatial and transform, according to the embedding domain of the host image. Based on these domains digital watermarking can be done by FFT, DCT, DWT, SVD. The analysis proves that the proposed DWT-SVD hybrid model is much more superior to other models as it is found to be more robust and effective. The results revealed that the hybrid model is able to withstand a variety of attacks and shows high level of security.
Reliable RGB color image watermarking using DWT and SVD
2014 International Conference on Informatics, Electronics & Vision (ICIEV), 2014
This paper proposes a reliable RGB color image watermarking which uses discrete wavelet transform (DWT) and singular value decomposition (SVD) for embedding and extracting watermark. The DWT and SVD applied on the watermark image increase information hiding capacity and perceptual similarity of the watermarked image. In the watermarking embedded stage, the processed watermark information using the proposed method is embedded into three color components (R, G and B) with an optimum watermarking scaling factor (α). In the extraction stage, the resultant watermark is calculated by averaging the three extracted watermarks from R, G and B components. The experimental results show that the proposed method achieves high normalized correlation (NC) of the extracted watermark and high peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR) of the watermarked image after several image processing attacks. In addition, the proposed method outperforms other conventional methods in terms of perceptual similarity, robustness, and detection rate.

This paper presents a novel watermarking scheme based on Discrete Wavelet Transforms and Singular Value Decomposition. The singular values of HL band is going to embedded with watermark singular values making use of scaling factor (α).The effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is measured using peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR), structural similarity index(SSIM) and normalized correlation (NC) factors. The robustness of the proposed algorithm is tested by performing various attacks like Salt & Pepper noise, Gaussian noise and rotation etc on watermarked image. The experimental results show both the robustness and high fidelity of the algorithm.

In this paper 'DWT-SVD' based Color Image Watermarking technique in YUV color space using Arnold Transform is proposed. The RGB color image is converted into YUV color space. Image is decomposed by 3 level DWT and then SVD is applied. The security is increased with watermark scrambling using Arnold Transform. The watermark is embedded in all Y,U and V color spaces in HL3 region. The decomposition is done with 'Haar' which is simple, symmetric and orthogonal wavelet and the direct weighting factor is used in watermark embedding and extraction process is used. PSNR and Normalized Correlations (NC) values are tested for 10 different values of flexing factor. We got maximum PSNR up to 52.3337 for Y channel and average value of NC equal to 0.99 indicating best recovery of watermark. The proposed scheme is non blind and strongly robust to different attacks like compression, scaling, rotation, cropping and Noise addition which is tested with standard database image of size 512x512 and watermark of size 64X64.
