An efficient image watermarking scheme using the Laplacian Pyramid based on projection

The digital image watermarking technology is widely used to protect intellectual property and to authenticate digital contents in the network environment. The aim of the paper is to invoke the improved Laplacian Pyramid transform to develop a new image watermarking scheme. Specifically, the host image is decomposed and reconstructed by using the improved Laplacian Pyramid transform. Then, the mid frequency subband data with the appropriate level and strength factor are chosen to embed the watermark. Finally, we conduct experiments to investigate the invisibility and robustness of the proposed algorithm. To measure the invisibility and the robustness of the algorithms, we use the peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) and normalized correlation (NC) as performance metrics. Experimental results demonstrate that invisibility and robustness are guaranteed. The proposed algorithm outperforms one based on curvelets for the lossy JPEG compression attack in terms of invisibility and robustness.
