Watermarking Scheme

This paper proposes an encryption-based image watermarking scheme using a combination of second-level discrete wavelet transform (2DWT) and discrete cosine transform (DCT) with an auto extraction feature. The 2DWT has been selected based on the analysis of the trade-off between imperceptibility of the watermark and embedding capacity at various levels of decomposition. DCT operation is applied to the selected area to gather the image coefficients into a single vector using a zig-zig operation. We have utilized the same random bit sequence as the watermark and seed for the embedding zone coefficient. The quality of the reconstructed image was measured according to bit correction rate, peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR), and similarity index. Experimental results demonstrated that the proposed scheme is highly robust under different types of image-processing attacks. Several image attacks, e.g., JPEG compression, filtering, noise addition, cropping, sharpening, and bit-plane removal, were examined on watermarked images, and the results of our proposed method outstripped existing methods, especially in terms of the bit correction ratio (100%), which is a measure of bit restoration. The results were also highly satisfactory in terms of the quality of the reconstructed image, which demonstrated high imperceptibility in terms of peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR ≥ 40 dB) and structural similarity (SSIM ≥ 0.9) under different image attacks.

Radiograph Image

CBCT is a modernized technology in producing radiograph image on dentistry. The image quality excellence is very important for clinicians to interpret the image, so the result of diagnosis produced becoming more accurate, appropriate, thus minimizing the working time. This research was aimed to assess the image quality using the blank acrylic phantom polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) (C­5H8O2)n in the density of 1.185 g/cm3 for evaluating the homogeneity and uniformity of the image produced. Acrylic phantom was supported with a tripod and laid down on the chin rest of the CBCT device, then the phantom was fixed, and the edge of the phantom was touched by the bite block. Furthermore, the exposure of the X-ray was executed toward the acrylic phantom with various kVp and mAs, from 80 until 90, with the range of 5 kV and the variation of mA was 3, 5, and 7 mA respectively. The time exposure was kept constant for 25 seconds. The samples were taken from CBCT acrylic images, then as much as 5 ROIs (Region of Interest) was chosen to be analyzed. The ROIs determination was analyzed by using the ImageJ® software for recognizing the influence of kVp and mAs towards the image uniformity, noise and SNR. The lowest kVp and mAs had the result of uniformity value, homogeneity and signal to noise ratio of 11.22; 40.35; and 5.96 respectively. Meanwhile, the highest kVp and mAs had uniformity value, homogeneity and signal to noise ratio of 16.96; 26.20; and 5.95 respectively. There were significant differences between the image uniformity and homogeneity on the lowest kVp and mAs compared to the highest kVp and mAs, as analyzed with the ANOVA statistics analysis continued with the t-student post-hoc test with α = 0.05. However, there was no significant difference in SNR as analyzed with the ANOVA statistic analysis. The usage of the higher kVp and mAs caused the improvement of the image homogeneity and uniformity compared to the lower kVp and mAs.

Protection and authentication of medical images is essential for the patient’s disease identification and diagnosis. The watermark in medical imaging application needs to be invisible and it is also required to preserve the low and high frequency features of image data which makes watermarking a difficult assignment. Within this manuscript an unseen medical image watermarking approach is projected apply edge detection in the discrete wavelet transform domain. The wavelet transform is brought into play to decay the medical picture interested in multi-frequency secondary band coefficients. The edge detection applies to high frequency wavelet group in the direction of generating the boundary coefficients used as a key. The Gaussian noise pattern is utilized as watermark as well as embedded within the edge coefficients around the edges. To add the robustness scaled dilated edge coefficient is added with the edge coefficients to generate the watermarked image. Preserving the small frequency secondary band fulfills the information requirement of the medical imaging application. At the same time as adding together the watermark during high frequency sub-bands improve the watermark invisibility. To add additional robustness the dilation is applied on the edged coefficient before being embedded with sub band coefficients. presentation of the technique is experienced on the dissimilar set of medical imagery as well as evaluation of the proposed watermarking method founds it robust not in favor of the different attacks such at the same time as filtering, turning round plus resizing. Parametric study foundation going on Mean Square Error along with Signal to Noise Ratio shows that how good method performs for invisibility.

Steganography is a widely-used technique for digital data hiding. Image steganography is the most popular among all other kinds of steganography. In this article, a novel key-based blind method for RGB image steganography where multiple images can be hidden simultaneously is described. The proposed method is based on Discrete Cosine Transformation (DCT) and Discrete Wavelet Transformation (DWT) which provides enhanced security as well as improve the quality of the stego. Here, the cover image has been taken as RGB although the method can be implemented on grayscale images as well. The fundamental concept of visual cryptography has been utilized here in order to increase the capacity to a great extent. To make the method more robust and imperceptible, pseudo-random number sequence and a correlation coefficient have been used for embedding and the extraction of the secrets, respectively. The robustness of the method is tested against steganalysis attacks such as crop, rotate, resize, noise addition, and histogram equalization. The method has been applied on multiple sets of images and the quality of the resultant images have been analyzed through various matrices namely ‘Peak Signal to Noise Ratio,' ‘Structural Similarity index,' ‘Structural Content,' and ‘Maximum Difference.' The results obtained are very promising and have been compared with existing methods to prove its efficiency.

One of the most important areas in image processing is medical image processing where the quality of the images has become an important issue. Most of the medical images are corrupted with the visual noise, and one of the such images is echocardiography image where this effect is more. So, this research aims to denoise the echocardiography image with fractal wavelet transform and to compare its performance with other wavelet based algorithm like hard thresholding, soft thresholding and wiener filter. Initially, the image is corrupted by the Gaussian noise with varying noise variances and is denoised using above mentioned different wavelet based denoising techniques. On comparison of the obtained results, it is observed that the fractal wavelet transform is well suited for highly degraded echocardiography images in terms of Mean Square Error (MSE) and Peak Signal To Noise Ratio (PSNR) than other wavelet based denoising methods. Further, the work could be enhanced to denoise the echocardiography image corrupted by other different types of noise. This research is limited to denoise the echocardiography image corrupted with Gaussian noise only.

Medical imaging techniques are routinely employed to create images of the human system for clinical purposes. Multi-modality medical imaging is a widely used technology for diagnosis, detection, and prediction of various tissue abnormalities. This chapter is focused on the development of an improved brain image processing technique for the removal of noise from a magnetic resonance image (MRI) for accurate image restoration. Feature selection and extraction of MRI brain images are processed using image fusion. The medical images suffer from motion blur and noise for which image denoising is developed through non-local means (NLM) filtering for smoothing and shrinkage rule for sharpening. The peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR) of improved curvelet based self-similarity NLM method is better than discrete wavelet transform with an NLM filter.
