Abstract

An improved second generation digital image watermarking scheme is proposed. This scheme exploits the region feature instead of point or line feature. The region features are retrieved by watershed transform, which allows watermark recovery after common attacks. The experiments have shown that this proposed scheme is robust against compression, noise intrinsically and more robust against geometrical attacks and JPEG compression compared with Kutter's method. The watermark capacity is improved because the robustness of region feature is more than point or line feature.
