This paper presents an algorithm by embedding a digital watermark into an original color image. Considering the characteristics of HVS, YUV color space is employed, this algorithm presents a new adaptive digital audio watermarking based on discrete cosine transform. The result of the experiment shows that the proposed algorithm has good robustness against various image processing and attacks, good invisibility and stability.

With the rapid development of network technology and multimedia, the current color image digital watermarking algorithm has the problems of small capacity and poor robustness. In order to improve the capacity and anti-attack ability of digital watermarking. A color image blind digital watermarking algorithm based on QR code is proposed. The algorithm combines Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) and Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT). First, the color image was converted from RGB space to YCbCr space, and the Y component was extracted and the second-level discrete wavelet transform is performed; secondly, the LL2 subband was divided into blocks and carried out discrete cosine transform; finally, used the embedding method to embed the Arnold transform watermark information into the block. The experimental results show that the PSNR of the color image embedded with the QR code is 56.7159 without being attacked. After being attacked, its PSNR is more than 30dB and NC is more than 0.95. It is proved that the algorithm has good robustness and can achieve blind watermark extraction.

Digital watermark technology hides copyright information in digital images, effectively protecting the copyright of digital images. At present, the color image digital watermarking algorithm still has defects such as the inability to balance robustness, invisibility and the weak anti-attack ability. Aiming at the above problems, this paper studies the digital watermarking method based on discrete wavelet transform and discrete cosine transform. Then this paper proposes a color image blind digital watermarking algorithm based on QR code. First, convert the color image from RGB space to YCbCr space, extract the Y component and perform the second-level discrete wavelet transform. secondly, block the LL2 subband and perform the discrete cosine transform. finally, use the embedding method to convert the watermark information after the Arnold transform embedded in the block. The experimental results show that the PSNR of the color image embedded with the QR code is 56.7159 without being attacked. After being attacked, its PSNR and NC values are respectively 30dB and 0.95 or more, which proves that the algorithm has good robustness and can achieve watermarking blind extraction.

Digital watermarking has been proposed for the protection of digital medias. This paper presents two watermarking algorithms for binary images. Both algorithms involve a blurring preprocessing and a biased binarization. After the blurring, the first algorithm embeds a watermark by modifying the DC components of the Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT), followed by a biased binarization, and the second one embeds a watermark by directly biasing the binarization threshold of the blurred image, controlled by a loop. Experimental results show the imperceptibility and robustness aspects of both algorithms.

With the advancement of networks and multimedia, digital watermarking technology has received worldwide attention as an effective method of copyright protection. Improving the anti-geometric attack ability of digital watermarking algorithms using image feature-based algorithms have received extensive attention. This paper proposes a novel robust watermarking algorithm based on SURF-DCT perceptual hashing (Speeded Up Robust Features and Discrete Cosine Transform), namely blind watermarking. We design and implement a meaningful binary watermark embedding and extraction algorithm based on the SURF feature descriptor and discrete-cosine transform domain digital image watermarking algorithm. The algorithm firstly uses the affine transformation with a feature matrix and chaotic encryption technology to preprocess the watermark image, enhance the confidentiality of the watermark, and perform block and DCT coefficients extraction on the carrier image, and then uses the positive and negative quantization rules to modify the DCT coefficients. The embedding of the watermark is completed, and the blind extraction of the watermark realized. Correlation values are more than 90% in most of the attacks. It provides better results against different noise attacks and also better performance against rotation. Transparency and high computational efficiency, coupled with dual functions of copyright protection and content authentication, is the advantage of the proposed algorithm.
