Abstract Medical volume data containing patient information is often faced with various attacks in the transmission process. In order to enhance the medical information system security, and effectively solve the problem of medical volume data protection, a new zero-watermarking algorithm is proposed in the paper. The new zero-watermarking algorithm takes advantage of three-dimensional discrete wavelet transform multi-resolution analysis characteristics of space and time, threedimensional discrete cosine transform properties, and differences hashing robust characteristic. In order to enhance watermarking algorithm security, Legendre chaotic neural network is used for scrambling original watermark image. The medical volume data is made by three-dimensional discrete wavelet transform, threedimensional discrete cosine transform and three-dimensional discrete inverse cosine transform r to obtain the medical volume data feature matrix (4×5×4), which is converted to 64-bit binary feature sequence through difference hashing algorithm. The 64-bit binary feature sequence is used to construct the zero-watermarking. The experimental results prove that the new zero-watermarking has favorable security and robustness resisting various attacks. Therefore, the new zero-watermarking algorithm is more applicable to protect medical volume data.

: Watermarking is a process of embedding a message inside a digital signal like an image, video or text. It is used for several key reasons such as authenticity verification, ownership recognition and hidden communication. In this paper, we discuss about image watermarking, where secret messages are stored in images. Introduction: We propose a dual watermarking approach, which is based on Discrete Cosine Transform, Discrete Wavelet Transform and Singular Value Decomposition methods. This paper considers one watermark as robust and other water mark as fragile. Method: The robust watermark is embedded in Discrete Wavelet Transform- Singular Value Decomposition - domain and is used to transmit hidden messages. The fragile watermark is embedded in Discrete Cosine Transform domain and is used for verification of secret message of the robust watermark. The proposed algorithm is tested in the experimental results section and shows promising results against denoising, rotation, translation and cropping attacks. Result: The results show that the performance of the proposed algorithm in terms of mean squared error, structural similarity and peak signal to noise ratio is S4considerable as compared with the existing methods. Discussion: We present the comparison results with Himanshu et. al. in table 10, from which we can see that our method performs better with gaussian noise and rotational attack only lacking with Salt and Pepper noise. Fig. 7 and Fig. 8, in terms of resulting PSNR shows the variation of noise variance and degree of rotation. From the graphs it is evident that out method performs better against Gaussian and rotational attack. Conclusion: In this paper a dual watermarking method is proposed in which one watermark is fragile which is called as authentication watermark whereas the other watermark is robust and is called as the information watermark. The authentication watermark is embedded in the fractional part of DCT domain in the cover image and the information watermark is embedded in the diagonal vector of the LL sub-band.

In this research we undertake a study of image compression based on the discrete cosine transform(DCT) and discrete wavelet transform(DWT). Then a hybrid color image compression algorithm based on DCT and DWT is proposed. This algorithm is implemented through transform the color image using DWT in the YCbCr space first, and then DCT in the low frequency, adopt huffman coding, RLE and arithmetic coding in the encoded mode. In experiments, the results outperform the only DCT and the only DWT typically higher in peak signal-to-noise ratio and have better visual quality.
