Abstract

A robust image data-hiding scheme for copyright protection is proposed and simulated. The scheme uses a combination of redundant discrete wavelet transform (RDWT), singular value decomposition (SVD) and spread spectrum technique. The embedding is done by spreading the copyright mark into the singular values of middle frequency sub-bands of RDWT coefficients of the cover image. Chaotic sequence is used for spreading. The use of chaotic sequence and RDWT increases security and robustness of the proposed scheme. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme achieves higher security and robustness against filtering, addition of noise, JPEG compression, sharpening, gamma correction, resizing, rotation, and histogram equalization than other existing techniques for copyright protection.
